What this headshot has to do

Executive and business owner headshots, coached by Nadia Chapman

People buy from people. For a business owner or executive, a headshot appears on the About page, in press coverage, on proposals, on investor decks and at the top of every LinkedIn post. Nadia Chapman works with founders, owners and senior leaders across Portland and Southwest Washington to create portraits with presence: confident without being stiff, warm without being casual. Sessions are coached and unhurried, with time for more than one look, so you leave with a set of images that covers the boardroom, the press release and the personal brand.

01

Authority

Lighting and posture that carry weight, without looking severe.

02

Warmth

A coached, natural expression that makes people want to do business with you.

03

Range

Several looks in one session: formal, relaxed, and one for press.

The coached session

How it works

01

We talk and plan

A few minutes on where the photos will be used and how you want to come across, then an outfit review to plan your looks. A pre-shoot Zoom is available if you would like to plan ahead.

02

I coach, you relax

Nadia directs every expression and angle. Your images appear on the laptop as you shoot, and you talk through what you like and what you don't, so the coaching keeps getting closer to you.

03

You choose

At the end you go through the images together, using as much or as little of Nadia's professional eye as you like. Each final is retouched by Nadia and backed by her happiness guarantee.
