"Irene is a real gem and for anyone who thinks they take terrible pictures - she's the photographer for you."
"I had the tremendous pleasure of working with Irene for my business portraits. I was leary of making this investment because I have always hated all photos of myself. Irene knew this because she took the time to talk to me and get to know me before the photo shoot, so was brilliant at getting me to relax and "show my personality" during the shoot. I was amazed at the number of portraits that I not only liked but loved. Irene is a real gem and for anyone who thinks they take terrible pictures - she's the photographer for you."
-- Marva Makle, Health Coach & Small Business Owner, Washington, DC
Strong alone, unstoppable together?
Show your superpower with team portraits.
Select the team portrait style that most accurately reflects your brand identity and aligns with your logistical needs: custom team portraits vs. composite team portraits!
Custom Team Portraits
Our custom team portraits represent the conventional method of capturing a group, gathering all team members in a singular time and space. These bespoke custom portraits afford a breadth of options in terms of backgrounds and poses, whether indoors or outdoors, on-location or in-studio. Nonetheless, owing to the necessity of coordinating all team members simultaneously, they are most suitable for smaller groups with minimal turnover.
Composite Team Portraits
Composite team portraits have a clean, modern feel and revolutionize the way companies capture their team's essence by seamlessly blending individual portraits into a unified group photo. The composite approach eliminates the need for frequent photoshoots with large groups of people, saving valuable time and resources while ensuring a consistent and professional visual representation of the team. With the flexibility to update composites effortlessly as team compositions evolve, our composite team portraits give businesses the power to maintain a polished brand image without the logistical hassle.

Meet Irene
Photography took over my life in the most incredible and amazing way when I discovered that creating photos of people that they love is my superpower!
Over my years as a branding & headshot photographer, I've come to the realization that it's much too common to dislike being in front of the camera. You've gained some extra pounds from having kids, COVID, not having time to work out, and from... just, well... life! I get it! That little voice in the back of your mind is telling you that you're not going to look your best self in your photos, and so you've been waiting until you get back to how you used to look.
But what has the delay cost you in terms of professional opportunities come and gone?
Like it or not, none of us can go backwards in time. Lose a pound, gain a wrinkle, right? Waiting another second for the perfect time or the perfect you simply isn't worth the cost to your professional career.
Plus, you have ME, and I believe we can make you look not just amazing, but simply STUNNING!
I truly believe that each and every person deserves to feel great about how they look. And I've dedicated countless hours... days... months... years even to learning and perfecting the craft of making people look their very best.
Let us create headshots and personal brand photos together that you love so much you'll never think you're unphotogenic again!
