Making the Most of the Background on a Spontaneous Headshot Session in DC

by William Petruzzo | Jul 13, 2017 | Headshots, Photography, Professional, William Petruzzo

A few months ago we met up in Washington DC for a last minute headshot session and a quick adventure through some of DC’s less obvious photo locations. People often don’t realize how little the specific location matters for headshots. For outdoor sessions...

Let’s Talk About Your Wedding Photography



Do you have a studio?

No, Petruzzo Photography does not maintain a studio, which makes coordinating staff pictures much simpler. We serve our corporate and commercial clients directly in their homes and offices and we are able to create headshots in most environments.



Can I change outfits during the shoot?

Yes. However, it should be noted that depending where your session takes place, there may not be any officially sanctioned location to change clothes.



Do you offer group discounts?

Yes! If you would like to purchase headshots for your whole team, discounted group rates are available! Or, if you would like to offer conference attendees or clients headshots, talk to use about arranging a custom headshot day. We’ll be happy to help!



Where will the photos be taken?

The images will be captured in your home, office or outdoors in any stylistically relevant location. We are happy to provide recommendations.



What should I wear?

For most professionals, we recommend dressing like you would for a meeting with a client, or the way you would for a meeting with your boss. If possible, avoid jet black and pure white, but not if that means you don’t look like yourself. Definitely accessorize–watches, necklaces, decorative scarves, all add personality and dimension to your portrait.



How long does it take to see the images?

Standard turn around time is 10 days or less. Where there are deadline constraints, we make every effort to return those images quickly. Guaranteed rush delivery is also available for additional cost.



How many images will I have to choose from?

For individual sessions, you can expect to have around 10-15 images to choose from. For group sessions, it’s typical to have 3-6 different images to choose from.



How can I use the images you create?

Your license will allow for unlimited royalty free use of the images. Unless you’ve made special arrangements, the only limitation is against reselling or sub licensing the images.



Will you photoshop my images?

We will remove non-permanent blemishes during processing, and may slightly soften skin where it appears unrealistically rough. We are able to conduct more in depth adjustments as well for additional cost.



I have a specific concept in mind, can you help?

Definitely! We try to deliver a uniqueness to each of our clients and love the opportunity to help fill in your vision!



Are there any other fees I should expect?

There are no hidden fees on our listed services, however we do not include tax. Additionally, If you wish to schedule a session outside of our normal service area you will be required to pay for travel. You may also be required to pay for prints, advanced retouching, parking and event or location admissions costs incurred during the session.



What forms of payment do you accept?

We accept all major credit cards, with a 2.9% credit card processing charge. You are also welcome to pay with a check to avoid any additional charges.
