✨Capturing Every Angle of Your Story.✨

Your professional image might be telling an old story.

I see this with professionals who have grown significantly in their careers but are still using a headshot from an earlier season.

You may be leading people now.

You may have been promoted.

You may own the company.

You may be speaking, consulting, meeting clients, or representing your organization publicly.

Your professional image should reflect that growth.

That doesn’t mean trying to look like someone you’re not. In fact, I believe the opposite.

The goal is to create an image that feels authentic to who you are while communicating the confidence and presence appropriate for where you are professionally.

Take a look at your current professional photo and ask yourself:

Does this image represent who I am today?

And does it represent where I’m going?

If the answer is no, let’s talk.

Before we talk about backgrounds, outfits or poses, I want to know something more important.

What do you need these images to accomplish?

Are you updating LinkedIn?
Moving into a leadership position?
Preparing for a speaking engagement?
Building your personal brand?
Launching a business?
Updating your website?

Because the answer changes what we create.

A great photograph can look good.

But the RIGHT photograph should also have a purpose.

That’s why I want to understand where you’re going before deciding what we need to photograph.

We start with the objective.

Then we create the images around it.

You don’t have to be photogenic.
You don’t need to know your best angle.
You don’t need to know what to do with your hands.
And you definitely don’t need to walk into your session knowing how to pose.

That’s my job.

At 38:16 Media LLC, I coach you through the entire process, from your posture and expression to the small adjustments that make a big difference.

The goal isn’t to turn you into someone else.

It’s to create a professional image that looks confident, natural and like YOU.

Your job is simple.
Show up.
I’ll handle the rest.

A professional headshot isn’t always enough.

Because a headshot, an executive portrait and personal branding photography aren’t interchangeable.

They solve different problems.

Professional Headshot

Who are you?

Perfect for LinkedIn, company bios, resumes and professional profiles.

Executive Portrait

How do you lead?

Designed to communicate confidence, credibility, authority and presence.

Personal Branding

What do you do, how do you do it, and what story surrounds your work?

These images give you a visual library for your website, social media, marketing, speaking engagements and other professional opportunities.

The question isn’t simply:

“What kind of pictures do you want?”

The better question is:

“What do you need these images to accomplish?”

Not sure which photography experience you need?

DM PRESENCE and let’s figure it out.

What actually happens during a 30 minute headshot session?
We start with a conversation. Then I guide you through positioning, expression, and body language while we shoot and review your images together.
You don’t have to know how to pose. I’ll guide you through it.
Most people leave saying, “That was much easier than I expected.”
Ready for a headshot that reflects who you are today?

When was the last time you updated your professional headshot?

If you had to think about it, it might be time. 😂

Here are three signs:

📸 Your headshot is more than 3 years old.

📸 Your appearance has changed significantly.

📸 Your current photo no longer reflects where you are professionally.

That last one is important.

Sometimes we outgrow our professional image before we realize it. You may have stepped into a new leadership position, launched a business, earned a promotion, or simply become more confident in who you are and what you bring to the table.

Your professional image should grow with you.

If your current headshot doesn't represent the person you are today, let's change that.

Do you need a headshot…or do you actually need personal branding?

They're not the same thing.

A professional headshot may be exactly what you need if you're updating LinkedIn, your company bio or another professional profile.

But if you're stepping into a leadership role, your images may need to communicate more than professionalism. They may need to communicate confidence, authority, credibility and approachability.

And if you're an entrepreneur or business owner creating content for your website, social media and marketing, one headshot probably isn't enough.

That's where personal branding comes in.

Before I recommend a session, one of the first things I want to understand is:

What do you need these images to do for you?

Because the goal isn't to sell you the biggest photography package.

It's to create the right images for where you're going.

Not sure what you need?

Send me a message and tell me what you're trying to accomplish. I'll help you figure out the rest.

He had never had a professional headshot before.

And when he walked into the studio, he was nervous.

So I didn’t expect him to know what to do.

I talked with him.

I explained the process.

And once we got in front of the camera, I guided him through every pose and expression.

Little by little, he relaxed.

Then he saw himself.

“That’s me? I look really good.”

Yes.

That’s you.

One of my favorite parts of what I do isn’t just creating the photograph.

It’s watching someone’s confidence change when they finally see themselves the way everyone else can.

You don’t have to walk into 38:16 Media knowing how to pose.

You don’t even have to walk in feeling confident.

Just show up.

I’ll guide you through the rest.

One of the biggest things I hear from people before their headshot session is:

“Chris, I don't know how to pose.”

Good.

You don't need to.

You shouldn't have to walk into a professional photography studio already knowing where to put your hands, how to position your shoulders, or what expression works best.

That's part of the experience you're hiring me to provide.

At 38:16 Media, I guide you through the entire process so you can stop worrying about what you're “supposed” to do and focus on being yourself.

Some of my favorite sessions begin with someone feeling nervous in front of the camera.

And then we get to that moment when they see the first image and say:

“Wow...that's me?”

That's the moment I'm looking for.

If you've been putting off updating your professional headshot because being in front of the camera makes you uncomfortable, you're exactly the kind of person I enjoy working with.

Send me a message and I'll walk you through what to expect.
