It's easy to get into a mindset that Professional Portraits need to be formal, or they have to be in the studio - Not so!!

It's always a good idea to try different backgrounds.
And a variety of tops and jackets can really change the way you perceive yourself - What's the 'look' you're going for? Hair up, or hair down?
We'll shoot the portraits in horizontal format, giving you the later option of cropping to square or vertical. It all depends on how you want to use the photos.
It's also important to consider the final presentation: Will it look best with a left-facing or right-facing portrait? Ideally, the angle of your shoulders should be towards the text.
And, of course, every portrait is given a slight Photoshop, just enough to 'enhance' the look, while remaining true to who you really are!
