Professional Headshots in Victoria

So, you need a headshot? Great! I can help

🙂

I specialize in quick and easy headshots, done in about 15 to 20 minutes.

I've been in front of the camera, as well as behind. I understand what it’s like to have a big lens pointed at your face – it can be quite intimidating! And, you probably don't do this often, so I’ll do my best to make you comfortable by getting the shots quickly and I'll never make you feel stiff by holding a pose for a long time!

The fee is $175-$350 for a session and you'll receive a proof gallery and your choice of 3 images for retouching. (Head & shoulders, three-quarter and full body shot.)

If you'd like a studio session, the studio space is in Langford, near Coscto. Studio sessions are available twice a month on certain dates. 

If you'd like two different outfits, there is usually time for one wardrobe change. We can do a double session if you'd like more photos and/or more outfit changes.

Inquire about a Headshot Session

PLEASE NOTE *** Due to the short nature of headshot sessions, I only set up the studio for them twice a month and book anyone interested during those dates.  Outdoor sessions are more flexible with timing.

FAQ:

1. Can I purchase more edited photos if I want?

Yes, additional photos can be purchased for $25 each. 

2. Where do we do the sessions?

I have a home-based studio in Langford, near Florence Lake. If you aren't familiar with the area, that's about 5 minutes NE of Costco! Outdoor sessions are done in a park in View Royal.

3. Can I choose a different location for my session?

If you have a group of people and would like me to come to your workplace or office, I can come to you! Special locations are considered for 3 people or more.

4. What should I wear?

Clothing choice will depend on the look you are going for. If you want a business headshot, choose dressier clothes than for a casual lifestyle portraits. As for colors, I normally tell people to stay away from tones that look like their own skin color – as I’ve seen photos where people tend to look “naked”. Textures (like knitted sweaters) look great, but avoid large patterns/prints and big logos. It might be worthwhile to consider where this photo will end up… is it going on your website which is mostly blue? Then a blue shirt might match well, for example!

5. Why are studio sessions shorter?

Because we don't need walking time to/from the location, and the lights and everything are all set up exactly how we need them when you arrive. Studio sessions are generally about 10 to 15 minutes. Outdoor sessions are about 15 to 20 minutes (we will walk to and from the meeting point together). That said, I'm not a hard stickler for the exact number of minutes; more important is that we get a photo that you love! If we can do this in a few minutes less time, I consider it a win! If we need a few extra minutes, that's ok too!

6. I need photos for my modeling/acting agency. Can you do that?

Yes! You might want to book the longer session if you want to do an outfit change, but generally even the short headshot session can suffice for acting or modeling headshots.

7. Do you have a group rate?

Yes! Please contact me with the number of people in your group, the location you wish to have your session and I'll provide a quote. 🙂

When you work with me, I’ll make sure you feel comfortable and relaxed. (It’s not your job to be a professional model!)

We will have fun, and you can totally be yourself. If you need a little direction because you don’t know what to do, I’ll offer posing suggestions, or give you something to do so you can focus on a task instead of the camera.

Naomi did a wonderful job capturing our special wedding day! She artfully helped us take photos in three settings, and despite the rain, it was seamless! Thank you Naomi!

Naomi was fantastic with communication from beginning to end. When I reached out to her she gave us some suggestions on where we can take our family photographs and we were glad she was able to work well with our young kids. We had traveled from South WA state to Victoria and wanted to get photographs taken there. She was really accommodating as we made adjustments to shoot location and time as we got closer due to the unpredictability of the weather forecast. We were really glad we found Naomi and my family is really happy with the shots that were taken. Would definitely recommend hiring Naomi!

Naomi was an excellent choice for our engagement photos. We aren’t very used to having our pictures taken and are from out of town so we were feeling a bit nervous about how things would go. Naomi went above and beyond making us feel comfortable; she suggested locations, directed us well and was overall a joy to work with. We ended up with a great mix of traditional and “artsy” shots that we are super happy with!

I'm really not sure where to start because Naomi did such an amazing part in my surprise proposal. She even brought her kids and husband along so that it would look like she was just a regular mom taking pictures of her children. She knew exactly when to give me time to process my thoughts and compose myself. I did not feel rushed at all in our photoshoot and she listened to our visions for the images. We got our pictures so quickly in a couple of days to share with out friends and family. The pictures she took are so natural and beautiful they were not over edited. The pictures reflected the perfection of golden hour. She was the one who recommended we do different scenes. She really went above and beyond. She is a soft spoken and very genuine human being and I really found that our energies matched. I am a very private person so I will only share a few of our pictures just to show you how amazing Naomi's work is. If you need a photographer for a hidden photographer for a proposal like my man did or any other special event, do not hesitate to book this woman! Naomi is a professional and very thoughtful photographer.

I hired Naomi for a 30-minute session to take photos of me in my regalia for my UVic convocation. I chose Mystic Vale forest as the location, and I had a rough idea of what kind of pictures I wanted. Naomi was very professional and knowledgeable, and worked with me to get some beautiful shots of my family and I in nature! The photos had a turnaround of a few days, and turned out awesome! I would recommend her for any special occasion.

We chose Naomi to capture both our engagement and wedding photos and we were thrilled with both. Naomi was so professional and met with us in person and through email and telephone. Naomi was always quick to respond to our inquiries. We were so impressed with Naomi’s artistic and creative abilities to capture our special moments. We found her so easy to work with and made each of the events very fun and relaxed. We really appreciated her suggestions and feedback. Naomi was flexible and willing to adapt to our timelines. We found her packages and price points to be exceptional. Our family and friends have commented on how amazing our pictures look. Whatever your occasion is that you want to photograph to keep as lasting memories, Naomi is the photographer you want, we are so happy we chose her.
