“I was in charge of coordinating headshots for over 100 people in our Chicago office. Bottom line…you are in the best hands possible when it comes to your headshot, representation of who you are as an individual and your company’s reputation.”
“The end result was by far the best photo of myself I’ve ever seen. I was blown away with the lighting.”
“He listened to my concerns and priorities and gave practical advice throughout our session.”

FAQ
What do you recommend for wardrobe?
Generally, dress like you are going to the office. For more information on wardrobe, visit read our blog post on wardrobe selection do’s and dont’s.
I am awkward in front of the camera, can you help?
YES. This is what clients love about State Street Headshots. We accept all responsibility for drawing out a wide range of expressions, without sacrificing authenticity and attractiveness. So, don’t worry about posing or making different faces, just bring outfits you love and get excited to see yourself like you never have before.
Can I book with my friend?
Ultimately, this decision is up to you. One key to my sessions is helping people relax, and for most, that means working without an audience. I understand for some, it may help to have a friend tag along. In these cases, I do ask any audience do their best not to interfere. Understand that part of the subject getting the best images is whether or not the photographer can be 100% tuned in.
Do you offer packages?
Images are sold a la carte, and various packages are offered in-studio. Rates and availability are subject to change.
Do you retouch images?
Absolutely. Retouching is as much a part of the results as the photography itself. Using headshot specific processes to retouch skin, eyes, lips, etc., your final images will look polished to perfection, without looking fake/plastic. We are aware of a portrait aesthetic popular in fashion and beauty, which exaggerates skin smoothing, contouring etc., and if you like this aesthetic, we can accommodate but do not always recommend - depending on your industry. Of course, if you just like how it looks and want to have fun with it, go for it!
Can I get a headshot outside or on location?
Yes! Depending on distance and any permits required, there will be an additional fee. Unless you want a very specific location (like the inside of your office) we may be able to achieve the goal you have in mind with a combination of studio production and background replacement in post production. This can save time and money, so for anything beyond our standard looks please reach out beforehand to get a quote.
Do you charge per hour?
In an effort to alleviate any sense of feeling rushed, only 1 morning session and 1 afternoon session are offered per day. You can use as much or as little time as you want.
Should I get hair & makeup with my session?
This is a personal preference. If you are stressed out about doing your own makeup for your photos, have a professional do it. If you have a look that feels like you, it might make sense to keep that consistent. This is a popular topic, so we put together tips on doing your own hair/makeup for headshots, plus more details on the in studio hair and makeup.

Do you offer packages?
Images are sold a la carte, and various packages are offered in-studio. Rates and availability are subject to change.
How Long Are The Sessions?
We think it’s important clients feel no rush when taking headshots. So all individual sessions include 4 hours of studio time. Depending on how many images/looks are needed, we may use all or barely any of that time.
What is the rescheduling policy?
Life happens, so all in-studio sessions include 1 emergency reschedule, no questions asked. Additionally, sessions include unlimited reschedules when at least 48 hours notice is provided. After that, any rescheduling with less than 48 hours notice will incur a $100 fee. Group sessions can refer to the group guide.
Is there parking?
Street parking is available in front of the building, and secure parking is available a few buildings down the street.
Nice to meet you, I’m Andrew
Whether you love the limelight or not, you should love your headshots.
Beyond helping you through the [seemingly prerequisite] discomfort of being on camera, I walk you through various technical things that simply make you look better on camera.
That said - being photographed is very personal, so book a consultation.
I look forward to meeting you!
