The thing I love most about being a Headshot Photographer is the people I meet and the stories they share.

I have a genuine curiosity and fascination for people and what makes them uniquely THEM. Hearing their stories inspires me to look beyond the surface and capture the spirit within. When you see it in their eyes, you know there is a story to be told!

Georgy Arutyunov from MDS Engineering is one of those unique stories. Really cool guy! We had a lot in common and had a blast creating a Headshot worthy of his awesomeness. 😎

I love photography, but what I really love is people.

Happy Friday!

Meet Michael Gilliland.

I recently had the opportunity to photograph Michael, and while I knew I was working with a talented musician, I had not heard his original pieces. After listening, now I have it on repeat, especially on the rainy days of Fall!

Michael is an incredibly accomplished pianist with a background that includes Penn State’s Music Education program, serving as Drumline Captain of the Penn State Marching Blue Band, and extensive classical piano training.

His original music is thoughtful, emotional and beautifully crafted. His Weather Or Not EP is a great place to start, with “Drizzle,” the piece I’ve linked below.

🎵 Check out Michael’s music:

Hey Folks...sorry I haven't posted in a while. It has been a crazy busy few months, for which I am so grateful, and I am just now coming up for air.

This Headshot of Jackie Gingerich has been a long time coming! Over the years, Jackie has sent many people my way and now it is her turn! Confidence, Engagement, Passion, Energy...Jackie checks off all the boxes with this Headshot.

Now this doesn't happen everyday!! I was on-location with a client this week and my cousin's husband was on the schedule for a Headshot! I had no idea he had just started with my client, and he had no idea I was their Headshot Photographer. Too funny. We had a good time with it.

There’s a quiet force shaping our lives every single day… our thoughts.

Throughout the day, we’re constantly choosing—often unconsciously—between thoughts that limit us and thoughts that liberate us. One keeps us small, safe, and stuck. The other expands what’s possible.

I’ve seen this principle play out again and again in my own life.
When I had a crystal-clear vision of what I wanted—when I could see it, feel it, and step into it mentally as if it had already happened—that’s when things started to move. Not magically… but powerfully and intentionally.

The biggest example? My shift from a career in IT staffing to becoming a Headshot Photographer.
If I had listened to the limiting beliefs—my own or others’—I wouldn’t have made the leap. And yes… some people definitely questioned my sanity 🤪. But I held onto the vision. I held to liberating thoughts.

And that brings me to Jenna.

I met Jenna Jansen about 6 years ago during her very first headshot session with me. What stood out immediately wasn’t just her presence—it was her clarity. She had a vision for her life and career that was bold, driven, and deeply grounded. She’s brilliant, fun, caring, and someone who shows up fully—both in her work and for her family.

Jenna doesn’t cling to limiting beliefs. Her thoughts are liberating.

Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of photographing her family, capturing meaningful moments—including a beautiful father/son portrait with her husband and father-in-law—and then, this past December, we created a new set of Headshots together.

Jenna was coming for new Headshots that represented her vision.

She wasn’t in the new role yet… but she could already see herself there. She could feel it. Leading, thriving, and driving her organization forward.

And now?

She’s officially stepped into that vision as Vice President of Operational Excellence at WellSpan Health.

That’s the power of thought.

See the future before it arrives.
Don’t let fear—or anyone else’s doubt—keep you from what you know is possible. Hold to liberating beliefs.

I've been waiting for this one! 📸😎

Four years ago, Tim found me here on LinkedIn, started following my work, and began trusting me with something important—his team. Since then, he’s sent multiple people my way for headshots, and every single time, that trust has meant everything.

This week, I finally had the chance to meet Tim in person.
And yeah… it felt like meeting someone I’d already known for years.

Getting him in front of my camera wasn’t just another session—it was the moment to create a headshot that truly matched the leader he is. Confident, approachable, and the kind of presence people naturally trust.

Tim, thanks for your trust and support of my work. I am very grateful.

This is what it’s all about. 🙌

Confident.Experienced. Credible. Evolving.

Now Evan has a Headshot that is aligned with who he is today:

To people who don't know you, your current Headshot is a reflection of who you are at this present moment. They don't know if your photo is 10+ years old. They think your current Profile Pic is a reflection of:

* Your current position
* Your current confidence level
* Your current direction

If you have changed… your headshot should too!

Thanks for trusting me to capture your awesomeness, Evan... And all the best in your new role!

There’s something powerful about a team showing up with intention—investing in how they present themselves, aligning their image with who they are today, and where they’re going next.

Your headshot isn’t just a photo. It’s a reflection of your growth, your confidence, and your story as it evolves.

Thank you Jolynn, Angela, and team at Community Benefits Solutions for allowing me to capture a part of that journey. 🙏
And to all of my clients, past and present… I appreciate you, and I’m incredibly grateful for the trust you place in me.

Let’s keep growing. 🚀
