It's on your LinkedIn, your website, your business card, your email signature.

It's the first thing a potential client or employer sees before they ever meet you.
I photograph professional headshots in my Lakewood Ranch studio and on location throughout Bradenton and Sarasota. Whether you need a clean studio look or something outdoors and relaxed, I'll make sure you walk away with an image that actually looks like you - on your best day.

Client experience

"We are a small business and are in a new location and needed a group photo and headshots. She had great communication with setting everything up, including hair and makeup. We all loved our photos and would highly recommend her."

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a headshot session cost in Bradenton, Sarasota, or Lakewood Ranch?

I offer four headshot collections to fit different needs and budgets. The Entrepreneur collection starts at $175 for a 30-minute session and one fully retouched image. The Executive collection, my most popular, is $350 for a 45-minute session and three images. The CEO collection is $500 for a 90-minute session and five images. Need headshots for your whole team? I offer custom volume pricing - just reach out for a quote based on your team size. Additional images can be added to any collection.

What's included in every headshot collection?

Every collection includes a print and usage release so you can use your images anywhere - LinkedIn, your website, business cards, email signatures, wherever you need them. You'll also get same-day viewing to choose your favorites, fully retouched high-resolution files, and low-resolution versions optimized for web and social media.

Where do you shoot headshots - studio or on location?

Both. My studio is in Lakewood Ranch, and I shoot on location throughout Bradenton, Sarasota, and surrounding areas. I can also come to your office and set up on-site - great for teams who want everyone photographed in one day without anyone having to travel. Just reach out and we'll figure out what works best for your situation.


How long until I get my photos?

Individual sessions are typically delivered the next day, sometimes within two days. Small teams of two to five people are usually ready within three days. Larger teams are delivered within seven days. Either way, you'll see your images same-day and choose your favorites before you leave.


What should I wear to my headshot session?

Solid colors photograph best, they keep the focus on your face rather than your outfit. Avoid busy patterns, large logos, and anything that wrinkles easily. Bring a few options if you can - I'll help you choose what works best on camera. Most importantly, wear something that feels like you and fits well. If you look comfortable, you'll look confident.

I'm not photogenic. Can you still get a good shot?

That's probably the most common thing I hear before a session - and it's almost never true. Most people just haven't had a photographer who knows how to direct them. I'll tell you exactly how to angle your chin, where to look, what to do with your hands, and how to find your best expression, even fix that rogue strand of hair. Twenty-two years teaching in a classroom means I'm very good at getting real, relaxed expressions out of people who'd rather be anywhere else. You'll be fine. Better than fine, actually.

How often should I update my headshot?

Every two to three years, or any time your appearance changes significantly - new hair color, new role, new chapter. If your current photo is more than a few years old or no longer looks like you, it's time. First impressions happen fast, and your headshot is often making yours before you ever get a chance to.

Can you do headshots for my entire team or office?

Absolutely!  And this is one of my favorite things to do. I offer volume pricing for groups, and I can come to your location and set up on-site so nobody has to leave the office. Everyone gets a consistent, polished look without the hassle of coordinating multiple photographers or locations. Reach out for a custom quote based on your team size.

ceo

I've photographed realtors, attorneys, podcasters, CEOs, and everything in between. The one thing they all have in common? They wanted a photo that actually looks like them - not stiff, not overdone, just real and professional. That's exactly what I'm going to get you.

My studio is in Lakewood Ranch, just east of I-75. Prefer to shoot outdoors? I can bring a mobile studio to you, or we can meet at a location in Bradenton or Sarasota that fits your brand. Either way, I handle the setup - you just show up.

"Stacey is knowledgeable (she knows her stuff). We got our headshots in 30 minutes. The entire process is very simple and quick. She is very organized and walks you through before, during and after the process. Her prices are affordable and the quality of her work is superb. We are using her services again, definitely!"

"I learned the Wednesday before Thanksgiving that I needed a headshot for my business card by the following Monday. I called Stacey and she fit me in on that Friday. She provided a suggestion sheet ahead of the appointment with tips on things I did not consider. Highly recommend Stacey for professional headshots and I will be reaching out to her again this year for family photos for holiday cards."
