my approach

First, as a photographer, I am not doing my job if I don't make you look good!

Before all photography sessions I enjoy getting to know my clients, their interests, motivations, style, preferable color palettes, company, brands, etc.

Whether shooting headshots for executive leadership team, an entire company, individuals, or family portraits, with or without a hair and make-up team, you will receive a call sheet with the shooting schedule and a “tips” sheet detailing how to prepare, what to wear, and what NOT to wear.

head shots

In a digital world, your website, LinkedIn, or other social media outlets are likely your first opportunity for self-promotion. So naturally everyone should have a recent, high-quality headshot that showcases their personality and communicates their story.

So naturally I recommend environmental headshots, though depending on a company’s brand or your preferred style, there are background options.

Depending on the over all use and where these images ultimately live, you will receive both high and low resolution formats, adjusted to appropriate dimensions. We all know website layouts vary, and a LinkedIn profile photo is a different ratio that most other sites.

family portraits

Photography, especially when working with families, is very personal. Therefore, as part of my personal service, I like to meet your family prior to the photoshoot. I love getting to know my clients, and understanding their needs, style preference, as well as photography style (ie. Color vs. black and white, etc).

More over, this is usually beneficial with little kids so they feel more comfortable, making it easier for them to open up when photographing. Of course schedules are very busy between work and kid's commitments, so I always make my schedule flexible to meet at your convenience!

overview

Photography packages begin at $250 and increase based on shooting time and number of edited images. Please contact me for specific pricing details.

At any time, you can always choose to purchase the complete set of photos or additional individual retouched images. All images will be available on my client portal for 6 months.

 If you are looking for something not listed, I am happy to customize a package to fit your needs.

headshot packages

executive headshots

Session includes 1 hour of shooting time. Upon selecting your favorite 3 images,  you will receive the retouched images within 3 business days. 

environmental portraits

Session includes 2 hours of shooting time in multiple locations with wardrobe changes. Shooting time accounts for a variety of looks so you will come away with a range of head shots. This package is ideal for founders, entrepreneurs, or performers who need a number of images for specific use (corporate headshot, press releases, LinkedIn, agency representation, panels, publications, etc). Upon selecting your favorite 15 images, you will receive the retouched images within 3 business days. 

ultimate profile range

This photography package is geared towards singles or the dating crowd. Let's be honest, your dating profile picture should not be a selfie, or where you're holding a drink. It should be an up-to-date, high quality, natural picture that is different from your corporate head shot and social media profile picture!

Therefore, we will shoot a variety of head shots ranging from corporate head shots that can be used on your company's website, linked-in page, and dating profile! Efficiency is key- so why not do both?

Session includes 3 hours of shooting time. Not only will we shoot in at least 3 locations in either Manhattan and/or Brooklyn, there is time for 3 wardrobe changes. 

Upon selecting your favorite 50 images, you will receive the retouched images within 5 business days. 

If you bring a couple friends I'll throw in a group discount! It's always a good idea to have one picture on a dating profile with friends. 

Contact for pricing on executive and team and team headshots.

Note, the coffee table album and holiday cards only include layout and design. Printing costs depend on style, dimensions, and number of pages.

corporate Events

You never have an event without people. Therefore, I focus on people, capturing their emotions and connections shared during the experience to communicate the mood, energy, and over all story.

By focusing on people, an organization can create a deeper, emotional connection with clients, potential customers, sponsors, and targets while differentiating the brand’s true value.

Whether shooting CES, Southx, Cannes Lions, a 3-day conference, cocktail and awards celebration, or your company summer and holiday party, Whitnee’s personality, positivity, and engagement will only add to your event.

Every event is different as well as your needs. Contact Whitnee to discuss your event details and associated pricing.

Hire Whitnee to photograph imagery for your website, social media, marketing and promotional materials, or annual reports.

photo selects

For an additional cost, I will select my favorite images from your sessions and upload them to a separate folder within your own private page on my website. The layout will be very similar to a Facebook gallery. Each image will have a comments section, "like this", "share this", etc. You can email the link to friends and family, and keep track of their comments. And you can enlarge each image for easy viewing.

Sometimes clients prefer this add-on to save time rather than reviewing 700 images!
