San Francisco Headshot Photographer for Teams, Founders & Executives

Rates vary by session type and team size. Tell us what you're looking for and we'll get back to you with a custom quote - most San Francisco team headshot packages are scoped within one business day of inquiry.

Rates start at:

• Team headshots: $2,000+

• Executive portraits: $1,200+

• Group & brand photos: $800 as an add-on, or $2,000 as a standalone shoot

It depends on team size, but most San Francisco office headshot sessions run 2–4 hours for teams of 10–30 people. Larger teams (50, 100, or more) are typically a full day, however we can split across two days if needed to minimize disruption to your office or bring a second photographer to work twice as fast. Smaller groups of 5–10 people can often wrap in under 90 minutes.

A few things affect the pace: whether you're adding executive portraits, group shots, or lifestyle content, whether hair and makeup is on-site and how your office is laid out for the setup. We'll give you a realistic time estimate before booking based on your specific situation.

For companies fitting headshots into an offsite or company all-hands, we're used to working within a set window. Give us the slot you have and we'll design the session flow around it, whether that's two hours before lunch or a dedicated afternoon block.

The individual time per person is usually 5-10 minutes, which is enough to get several good options without it feeling rushed. For executives or anyone getting additional looks, we build in extra time so there's no pressure.

Honestly, most people are. We shoot a lot of San Francisco tech teams and it's rare to walk into an office where everyone's super excited to be photographed.

The direction we give makes a real difference. We tell you exactly what to do with your hands, how to stand, where to look, when to take a breath. We offer specific, calm, moment-to-moment guidance that produces expressions that actually look like you.

The goal is always natural, confident portraits… not stiff, never stuffy. If your team has people who are dreading shoot day, they're exactly who we're used to working with.

Faster than most. For San Francisco startups and tech companies on a tight timeline (a product launch, a funding announcement, a press feature, or a conference), we offer rush delivery as fast as 24 hours. If you're scrambling for headshots before a press feature or need executive portraits ahead of a speaking engagement, just mention it when you inquire and we'll build it into the schedule.

For standard team headshot deliveries, our typical turnaround is 2–3 weeks from shoot day. That includes individual preview galleries for each team member ( so everyone gets to select their own favorite shots rather than having one person choose for the whole team), plus final retouching and delivery of the full edited library.

For larger teams of 50 or more, we can stagger delivery so department heads or executives get their photos first, with the full team following on the standard timeline. If you have a board meeting, investor presentation, or website launch with a hard deadline, tell us upfront and we'll work backward from that date.

Rush delivery is available for executive portrait sessions as well, including same-day turnaround in certain cases. For founders doing back-to-back press ahead of a raise or launch, that kind of speed can matter.

Yes. On-site and offsite headshot sessions are actually where we do most of our work. We set up at offices, co-working spaces, hotel conference rooms and event venues across San Francisco, the Peninsula, East Bay, and Marin.

If your team is gathering for a company retreat, an all-hands or an offsite in Napa or Sonoma, that's often the perfect opportunity to add a headshot session to the agenda. (Check out a few tips for building headshots into your offsite!)

For San Francisco startups and tech companies, we regularly shoot at offices in SoMa, the Financial District, Mission Bay, and surrounding neighborhoods. On the Peninsula, we cover Palo Alto, Menlo Park, Redwood City, and Mountain View.

Our setup is intentionally minimal and fast. We arrive, get the space ready in under 30 minutes, and work efficiently so your team barely notices we're there. No dragging people to a studio, no half-day commitment, no disruption to your workday.

We also travel for multi-day shoots. If your company has offices in San Francisco and New York, or you're hosting a national sales kickoff, we can build a trip around your schedule. Just mention it when you inquire.

We do also have a studio in Sausalito for smaller teams, executive portrait sessions, and individual headshots if coming to us works better.

Absolutely. For most San Francisco startups and tech companies, this is where the real brand-building happens. Individual headshots get your team page sorted. Everything else (the group shots, the candid moments, the office interiors) is what makes your website, recruiting pages, and investor materials feel like a real company with a real culture.

We offer a full range of add-ons to any San Francisco team headshot package. Group photos and team shots work great for about pages, company announcements, press features, and LinkedIn posts. Candid lifestyle photography (people collaborating, whiteboarding, grabbing coffee, working in your space) is particularly valuable for recruiting content, company culture pages, and founder-led social media. Office and workspace photography gives you polished interior shots for your website or press profiles.

For VC-backed startups preparing for a funding announcement, product launch, or rebrand, we can put together a full content shoot that covers headshots, team photos, office interiors, and lifestyle content in a single session, so you walk away with everything you need for the next six to twelve months of content.

We can also build a custom shot list and mood board in advance, so shoot day is organized and nothing gets missed. If you're not sure what you need, we're happy to make recommendations based on where you're using the content.

Yes. For fast-growing San Francisco startups and tech companies, this comes up constantly. Someone's out sick on shoot day, a new hire starts three weeks later or your company doubles in size over the next year. We design your headshot setup so we can replicate it in the future, so any future team member can get a headshot that aligns your existing library seamlessly.

We can return to your San Francisco or Bay Area office for a mini shoot, or host new hires at our Sausalito studio. Either way, your team page stays consistent as you scale, whether you're onboarding one person or twenty. No starting from scratch, no mismatched photos on your about page, no asking your new VP of Marketing to use a photo from a different era.

For high-growth teams, we also offer an ongoing retainer for quarterly or rolling new hire headshots, so it's never a logistics scramble.

It depends on how you're showing up professionally. A clean, modern headshot covers most bases: LinkedIn profile photos, company team pages, pitch decks, speaker bios and thought leadership posts. For most San Francisco executives, startup founders and team members, a professional headshot session is exactly what you need.

Personal branding photography goes further. If you're actively building an audience — posting on LinkedIn, writing a Substack, running a podcast, speaking at conferences, or doing press as a founder — you need more than one great photo. An executive personal branding session in San Francisco gives you a full library of images across different settings, outfits, and looks, so your content feels intentional rather than like it all came from the same afternoon. This is especially valuable for VC-backed founders, C-suite executives, and anyone whose personal brand is doing real business development work.
