We are often asked two questions: How much is a professional headshot by an la headshot photographer and why does it cost so much?
Experience Really Counts as an LA Headshot Photographer
First and foremost is our experience. Randy is by trade considered a commercial advertising photographer. He commands as much as $10,000/day for advertising clients because of his years of experience on full blown commercial photoshoots. He works with actors and models in what are considered lifestyle photography photoshoots. His ability to create a very real moment from a staged scene is what sets him apart. He brings that experience to individual professional business people as well as actors and models. By comparison our rates are quite affordable.
We have a Photoshoot Studio!
Our 4500 square foot space has tons of gorgeous natural north light, as well as established studio lit sets. We can accommodate any look you are after and can match your existing team's headshots. There is significant cost to this, but it allows us to give you the most comfortable setting where you can move, relax and have a great experience. The results speak for themselves.
We Use the Finest Cameras and Lenses!
Our flagship cameras from Nikon and fast Prime Lenses let us create images of the highest quality and sharpness with rich color and bokeh. Cheaper kit camera systems that you see photographers on YouTube videos and budget headshot services just don't compare when you want the highest quality resolution. As one of the top LA Headshot Photographers, we feel it is important to give you only the best considering your time commitment.Below you will find very competitive headshot rates that will give you the most bang for your buck in LA.

All prices below are based on photoshoots in our studio. If we need to travel to your site there will be extra fees based on your shooting location's distance, size and lighting characteristics. Call or email for location fees and provide as much information as possible about your location including:
Is there a reason for a location photoshoot vs. a shoot in our studio? Our studio is set up with great light, distance to subject, and backgrounds. We can accommodate a lot of people in the 4500 sq. ft space.
Do we need to match lighting for any existing headshots your company already may have?
Do you require any specific background art direction (ie color, location background, etc)?
Does your location have a suitable area or space in which to photograph your employees? We really need about 800 square feet.
Does your location have natural lighting or will we need to bring lights?
Do you require a group shot of your employees?
Do you require an outdoor location? This bring up a lot of uncontrollable lighting situations that we'll need to be able to evaluate before shooting.
