Headshots for Heroes

🔥 Supporting those who take care of our firefighters.

We’re excited to give a shoutout to our friends Kevin and Corey with Redline Gear Cleaning Minnesota!

Firefighters put their gear through some of the toughest conditions imaginable—and keeping that gear properly cleaned, inspected, and ready for the next call matters.

RedLine brings their Mobile Extraction Unit directly to fire stations, providing on-site advanced turnout gear cleaning, inspection, and repair so departments can get their gear back in service quickly. 🚒

At Headshots for Heroes, our mission has always been about honoring and supporting the men and women who serve our communities. We love being able to support other businesses that share that commitment to the fire service.

If your department is looking for a better way to stay on top of turnout gear cleaning and inspections, give Kevin & Corey at RedLine Gear Cleaning Minnesota a look!

WE DID IT!! 🥹💙

Jamie Joos Photography was voted BEST of the West Lakes Area!

I seriously cannot thank this community enough. Every vote, every share, every recommendation, every kind word—and every person who has trusted me to capture a piece of their story—has helped build this little dream of mine.

Being recognized by the community I live and work in means so much more than an award. It means you see the heart I pour into this business, and that is something I will never take for granted.

To Mound, Maple Plain, Orono, Long Lake and our entire West Lakes community: THANK YOU for voting for me, supporting local, and allowing me to keep doing what I absolutely love.❤️

🏆 2026 Best of the West Lakes Area

Here’s to photographing a more beautiful you—and many more stories together. 📸

🔥📸 Headshot night at Shoreline Fire Department!

Tonight was a little makeup headshot night—making sure everyone who needed an updated portrait got in front of my camera.

One firefighter at a time, one department at a time. ❤️

This is exactly why I created Headshots for Heroes: to give the men and women who serve our communities a professional portrait that represents the pride behind the uniform.

Thank you, Shoreline Fire Department, for having me back!

🇺🇸 NEVER FORGET 🇺🇸

September 11, 2001.

A day that changed our country forever. A day filled with unimaginable loss, extraordinary courage, and countless acts of selflessness.

Today, we remember the 2,977 lives lost, including the 343 FDNY firefighters, 23 NYPD officers, 37 Port Authority Police officers, and the many other first responders who answered the call.

They ran toward what everyone else was running from.

As the person behind Headshots for Heroes, I have the privilege of standing face-to-face with firefighters and first responders and capturing the people behind the uniform. Days like today are a powerful reminder that the badge, helmet, and uniform represent something so much bigger—a commitment to serve, protect, and show up when people need them most.

To those we lost.
To the families who still carry that loss.
To the survivors.
To the first responders whose lives were forever changed.
And to every man and woman who continues to answer the call today:

We remember you. We honor you. We will never forget. 🇺🇸

Give these gentlemen a round of applause! Their countless hours of dedication to keep the mound community safe doesn’t go unnoticed.

Enjoy your retirement! ❤️🚒❤️

Today, we celebrate the freedoms we enjoy because of the courage and sacrifice of those who have served—and those who continue to serve.

This Independence Day, we extend our deepest gratitude to our military, veterans, first responders, and their families. Thank you for your dedication, your sacrifice, and your unwavering service.

From all of us at Headshots for Heroes, we wish you a safe, meaningful, and happy Independence Day.

Happy Fourth of July! ❤️🤍💙🇺🇸

I fully support firefighters having personality in their photos. 😂🔥

Because the fire service isn’t just bravery and structure — it’s friendship, humor, and the people who become family inside the station walls.

These are the images people remember.

Your department deserves images that reflect the pride you carry in serving your community.

Professional department photography is about more than headshots.
It’s about preserving history while honoring the people writing it.

🔥 If your department hasn’t updated images in years, let’s change that.

Some people see uniforms.

I see stories.

Years of sacrifice. Sleepless nights. Missed holidays. Lifelong friendships. Families who support every call that comes in.

That’s what I think about every time I photograph a department. ❤️
