GSKdesign Contemporary Headshot Event — February 20

I truly believe the best photoshoots don’t actually feel like photoshoots.

Most clients walk in expecting something stiff, overly posed, and uncomfortably professional.

They brace themselves for forced smiles, awkward silence, and the pressure to perform.

That’s not how I work.

My job isn’t to make you “pose.” It’s to connect.

To create a space where you can forget about the camera because you’re too busy having a real conversation.

That’s where the real work happens.

When the guard comes down, everything changes. Expressions become natural. Presence becomes effortless. And the images finally feel like you.

I know I’ve done it right when the session ends with a hug and the words:
“I can’t believe it… I actually had fun. And these images—this is so me.”

That’s what high-end contemporary headshot and personal branding photography is all about.

This remains one of my all-time favorite creative images.

While the photograph can carry many interpretations, I’m always interested in how it resonates with others. What does this image represent to you?

There is something different about furniture that is truly handmade — you can see it in the joinery, feel it in the materials, and recognize it immediately in the finished piece.

This recent photo session with JC Barger Custom Wood Furniture was all about honoring that level of craftsmanship. Every curve, edge, and surface reflects intention, skill, and years of experience. These are not mass-produced pieces — they are heirloom-quality works built one at a time, where artistry and function meet.

Photographing high-end custom furniture requires more than documentation. It’s about lighting the textures correctly, revealing the grain, and allowing the craftsmanship to speak for itself. The quality is already there — the imagery simply needs to do it justice.

Proud to help showcase work where detail matters and excellence is the standard.

Then vs. Now. Same pose. A completely different level of understanding.

This is an honest, vulnerable image of one of my early attempts at this seated, forward-leaning pose. At the time, I remember thinking, this is strong work. Maybe my strongest yet. And it was—for where I was then.

Looking back now, I see how much has changed:�– How I read body language�– How I shape and control light with intention�– How subtle adjustments create confidence instead of tension�– How restraint elevates presence�– How intentional retouching completes the portrait rather than distracts from it

Early on, my motto was “I’ll fix it in post.’ It was just that. It was all about fixing. Today, I no longer do my own retouching; I hire professional industry-standard retouchers, and now, retouching is about refinement—preserving texture, respecting character, and enhancing what’s already there without announcing itself. The final image isn’t just captured in-camera; it’s carefully finished with the same level of thought and care as the lighting and pose.

Growth in photography rarely happens in big, dramatic leaps. It happens through experimentation—trying things that feel right at the time, even when they eventually make you wince a little when you look back. But I took a step forward that day and have continued to build on that first photograph.

Those early experiments matter. They were and are necessary. And yes, sometimes they are painful to revisit. But every refinement—both behind the camera and in post—every quiet improvement, every ‘I’d do this differently now’ moment is proof that, thankfully, my craft is evolving.

If you stay curious.�If you keep experimenting.�If you keep refining instead of repeating.
What once felt good becomes the foundation for something truly exceptional.

This is the process. And it’s why I never stop perfecting the art of my work.

This shoot today was by far the most frustrating, challenging, yet rewarding shoot I've had in a long time. Part of the frustration is that I really don't know what I'm doing. LOL. Secondly, I'm way over my head with this stuff, and you quickly realize how time-consuming and mentally and physically draining it is to do it right. Despite my shortcomings, I learned a great deal tonight and captured a few images that meet the client's requests. Now, off to the retoucher. :-)

At GSKdesign, people sometimes assume photography begins when the shutter clicks.
The truth is, the real work starts long before that second ever arrives.

Every session begins with understanding. Who are you? What do you want your images to say? What story are we shaping together?

A personal portrait has its own rhythm.

For some, it is about rediscovering confidence. For others, it is trying on a new version of themselves or simply seeing their reflection through a more honest, elevated lens.
A business portrait is its own discipline.

A CEO, a luxury realtor, a physician, a lawyer, a creative director — every profession carries a different visual language. Some demand a formal presence. Others lean into originality, energy, or quiet sophistication. Many live somewhere in between.

My role is to interpret that line with precision, then build the exact visual tone that aligns with your field, your personality, and the impression you want to make — without losing the GSKdesign signature that clients come here for.

Because contemporary portraiture is never just about how you look.

It’s about what your image communicates, what it reinforces, and the level of intention behind it.

When we align the message with the person, the final frame feels true.

And that truth is what elevates a headshot from a picture to a presence.
If you’re ready for a refresh — one built with care, clarity, and the time it takes to get the image everyone else already sees in you — let’s create it.

Every now and then, I step out of the studio and into the real world—where you work with what the environment gives you and turn simple moments into something meaningful.

I don’t advertise family sessions or weddings, but when the right clients ask, I’m more than happy to bring my contemporary portrait approach to capture moments like this.
