What are the benefits of hiring a professional Houston headshot photographer?
The days of “DIY selfies” and vacation snapshots do more harm than good when used as business portraits. Today’s Ai headshots do not convey your true personality nor personal goals since there is no way to discuss your vision. It takes a certain level of experience and artistry to accurately capture someone’s business headshot so they feel represented as they are now and how they want to be perceived in the future.
Hiring a professional Houston headshot photographer, such as Michael Carr Photography, ensures a professional business image that exudes confidence and approachability in a professional manner. Michael Carr holds a degree in photography and has been a professional photographer for over 25 years. He is an expert of facial analysis and proper portraiture lighting. Michael has a working knowledge of transitional posing and proper camera angles in order to properly pose different body types.
What should I expect during a Houston business headshot photography session?
With Houston headshot photographer, Michael Carr Photography, you can expect a professional and efficient experience. The corporate headshot session begins with a portrait consultation to discuss your needs. We also offer clothing consultations prior to your business portrait session.
Throughout your corporate portrait session, Michael will guide you through a variety of poses so you look confident and approachable in your final images. You will have a variety of captures to chose from your session. After your business headshot session, we will view the images with you in our digital presentation room and help you select your final images. We will also discuss photo retouching and enhancements before your final digital files are delivered.
How long does it take to receive my business headshots after the session?
Once you have selected your final business headshot image, our typical delivery for digital files is 48 hours/2 business days, but we strive to deliver final retouched business headshot images the next day.
Should you require same-day or immediate turnaround, this can be done and there is a rush fee for our “RUSH SERVICE”.
Please let us know about any deadlines when scheduling your corporate headshot session.
Your final business headshot image will be delivered via email. Larger files and multiple headshot images will be delivered via FTP or a download link sent via email.

What is the process for reserving my Houston corporate headshot session time?
A non-refundable retainer is required to reserve your Houston corporate headshot session date and time with our Houston Headshot Photographers. This non-refundable retainer is applied to your final balance. Your final balance is due at the time of the session. Verbal appointments without paid retainers are not confirmed appointments.
How are reschedules for my professional corporate headshot handled?
If your professional corporate headshot session needs to be rescheduled, please notify us at least 24 hours before your scheduled session date so we can apply your non-refundable retainer to another session date and time. Should you have to reschedule your headshot session less than 24 hours before your session time the non-refundable retainer is forfeited, and will not be applied to another date.
No – shows and reschedules on the day of your scheduled session time slot are billed the full session amount and this amount will not be credited to another date.
I’m running late for my scheduled headshot photoshoot session, what do I do?
If you are running late for your headshot photoshoot session, please call us ASAP. We will let you know when the next available time slot is for that day. Clients who arrive late to their scheduled appointments will be worked in as our schedule permits.

How long do Houston professional business headshot sessions take?
Our in-studio Houston professional business headshot sessions take about 15-20 minutes for one look (ie: head and shoulders).
Should you opt to change outfits or change studio backgrounds your headshot session time will need to be extended, and there is an additional fee for these changes. After your session is completed, you will come into our presentation room to view all the images from your headshot session.
At this time you will make your final image selection. The image selection process usually takes about 15-20 minutes.
What do I wear for my professional corporate headshot photography session?
Great question! Please view our business headshot clothing tips here. You will need to bring your own clothes and accessories for your corporate bio photoshoot as we do not have those items here for you to borrow.
Can I change outfits? I want 2 looks for my Business headshots, is this an option?
Yes, there is an option to change clothes for your business headshots. Our affordable headshot package includes one outfit and one background. You have the option to upgrade your package or extend your session to have multiple looks and outfits for an additional fee.

Can you recommend someone for make-up and hair for my professional business headshots?
Our in-studio Houston professional business headshot sessions take about 15-20 Yes. As a Houston Business Headshot Photographer, we work closely with professional makeup artists in Houston. We can make arrangements for an artist to be on-site for your professional business headshot session. We can discuss this option at the time of scheduling your session.
When do I get to see my Houston corporate headshot images?
You will have the ability to view some of your corporate headshot session images in the camera room. The camera is tethered to a monitor thus allowing clients real-time previewing of images. This is beneficial so you can check hair, makeup, and clothing during the headshot photoshoot and make minor hair and clothing adjustments if needed.
After your session is complete, you will come into our presentation room to view all the images from your professional headshot session. At this time, you will make your final image selection for your professional headshot. The image selection process takes about 20 minutes.
I cannot stay to select my image/I need someone else to help me decide. Can the images from the corporate photoshoot be uploaded for online viewing?
We can assist you with business headshot image selection here at the studio. However, if you feel you need an outside opinion before selecting your final image, you can Facetime or schedule another appointment when all parties can assist you here in our studio.
What do I receive with the basic business headshot package?
Our basic headshot package is affordable and includes your session plus (1) selected 4×6 JPEG file with basic facial retouching. Once you have selected your final image, the final file image is sized as below:
Print files – * File will print up to a 4”x6” image.
4×6 @ 300 DPI in color
We recommend you know your image requirements or file specs before your session. In the event you need a different file size for your corporate headshot other than that indicated above, please forward your corporate headshot file size requirements to us before your scheduled appointment.
* Larger files and additional print files are available for an additional fee.
