Headshots & Branding Sessions
Headshots & Branding Sessions
Your professional image matters, whether it's for LinkedIn, your website, or the next stage of your business. A great photo says confidence and approachability before you ever say a word.
This session gives you classic headshots plus a variety of three-quarter images you can use across your website, social media, and marketing, all in one appointment.
I work with everyday women of all ages. Whether you're updating a LinkedIn photo or need a full set of images for your brand, your session is guided every step of the way so you feel comfortable in front of the camera.
Due to ongoing health challenges, I am not actively booking sessions right now. Even so, you can browse my portfolio and join my waitlist to be the first to know when sessions reopen.
Thank you for visiting and for supporting my work.
What's Included
Session Fee: $150
Your session fee secures your photo shoot date and time with me, as well as your pre-session planning appointment, and portrait reveal.
Optional Add-Ons: Professional Hair & Makeup:
Professional hairstyling and makeup are optional, but most of my clients do take advantage of these services. To see as sample of my makeup artist and hair stylist’s work please visit my “Before & After” gallery.
Salon Hairstyling - $55 (wash, blow dry & curl - no updos)
Professional Makeup - $100
Pre Session Planning Appointment. A phone or Zoom chat where we'll talk through backgrounds, clothing, hair and makeup options, your brand colors, and how you plan to use your images. I'll also send along my Styling Guide with tips on makeup, hair, and what to wear, so you walk into your photo shoot feeling ready.
The Photo Shoot. You'll get classic head and shoulder headshots plus three-quarter images shot against two backdrops with two outfits. This gives you a real variety to choose from, polished headshots for your LinkedIn or website, and more editorial images for social media and marketing. My goal is to create a minimum of 10-15 images for you to choose from.
Portrait Reveal. About 1 to 2 weeks after your session, you'll get access to your own private online album where you can view your proofs and choose which images to purchase, with immediate download. If you prefer we can also meet on Zoom to review your images together, when I can help you make your image selections and anwer any questions you may have.
Your session fee does not include any digital images. Those are purchased separately from your online album.
Individual Digital Images
Individual Digital Images: $175 each.
Every image is fully retouched and delivered at full resolution through your online gallery, ready for both professional and personal use.
Looking for a whole set? I also offer digital image collections at a better per image rate. You can find my Complete Pricing Guide here. You can also find my full Studio Policies here.
Add the Brand Story Set
Some women like to have a few extra images that show a little more of who they are and what they do. These are the detail shots and little lifestyle moments that fill out a website, sit beautifully behind a quote, or give you something fresh to post on social media.
Think your hands wrapped around a favourite mug, the tools of your work, or a stack of books you love. We’ll plan them together on your pre-session call, and you can bring along a few meaningful things to your photo shoot.
The Brand Story Set is completely optional and can be added to any session.
The Brand Story Set: 6 images for $450
Additional brand story images are $75 each.
Client Reviews
"Excellent work. Perfect for people who hate having their picture taken or are not photogenic."
-Merrill
Lorraine is excellent at what she does! The photos turned out phenomenally and she made me feel so comfortable and at ease during the shoot. She is so helpful with posing and making sure you’re feeling great while she takes beautiful photos!”
-Becky
"Thank you so much Lorraine for the fabulous business portraits! I'm a music teacher and so I wanted something professional, yet approachable since I work mostly with children. That's exactly what I got and I couldn't be happier!"
-Hannah www.mountainsidemusic.ca
“When I sent a message to Mortensen Photography, I was contacted by Lorraine and met with her to discuss options. The second meeting was for the photo shoot, I walked in feeling like a stranger and walking out feeling like a friend. It was the easiest experience I have had when having professional photos done. I blink when I shouldn't, I overthink my pose and it all comes out in the photo's. Lorraine was able to make me feel at ease; laughing and actually really enjoying the experience. I am thrilled with the final results and highly recommend her. Organized, professional, friendly and experienced. Thanks so much Lorraine, Mortensen Photography!”
-Anita
