Book Your Own Headshot Photo Session | Minneapolis Headshot Photographer

If you know me, you know I like SIMPLE.

If you’ve been around a while, you know I like to keep things simple. Honestly, it’s pretty much the most consistent thing about all the cool stuff I do – everything from my pricing, to the time you spend in the studio, is designed to be as simple as possible. Because I like things to be low stress, even though you might feel like there’s a ton of pressure on your headshot session (or any session!).

That’s why I offer things like self-booking for your headshot session.

Self-booking your headshot session is streamlined!

Self booking means you don’t have to worry about back and forth conversations to pick a day that works for you, you can just check out the calendar, and pick a time at your end! You know I’m available, and you can coordinate with your people (if your team needs to be there!) ahead of time too, without worrying about big ole email threads with me, your photographer, or only having time available for all of your people that… doesn’t line up with my calendar.

I reserve sections of my calendar for headshots every week, meaning you might even be able to book as soon as next week (depending on when you’re reading this, that is!). I don’t like to keep people waiting, and that’s a big part of how I handle my calendar for self booked sessions.

How do you select the session you need?

Selecting your session time is simple – all you have to do, is head over to my self-booking hub, as your first step. Then from there, you take a peek at the session types I have available for self booking! They’re not always all available, but as a baseline, I usually have all three of my standard headshot sessions available for self booking.

Those session types are “The Quickie”, “The Refresh” and the “All in”! And all of them come with different things to meet different needs. The Quickie is just what it sounds like – it’s quick, streamlined, and simple. It comes with one fully retouched image, but you can always upgrade to more, if there are more that you love in your gallery! These sessions take place in the studio, and include one outfit. So they’re really well suited to people who just need like one new photo for your profile images, for example!

Then The Refresh is a tiny bit more involved – it’s a longer session, comes with three fully retouched images, and you can even include an outfit change! You’ll still get your images super quickly, too, because just like The Quickie, I turn around your gallery within 24 hours so you don’t have to wait even a little bit to choose your favorite images to be edited.

The All In is even MORE involved, includes a set of six fully retouched images with the option for more, includes wardrobe changes, and you can even have images taken outside of the studio with this package!

Now, all this being said, if the types of session I offer for self-booking don’t quite meet your needs, that’s okay. You can ALWAYS reach out to me directly to book a custom headshot session, that includes EXACTLY what you need!

What does the booking process look like?

The booking process itself is super simple. Like I said before, the first step is heading over to the self-booking hub! Select your session type, then choose a day and time that works for you. Once you’ve picked, you’ll be able to enter your contact details, look over the contract, and pay right there, all in one step! It’s so simple, you can even do it from your phone. I know sometimes these are more “big screen” activities than “handheld screen” activities, but I’ve built the self-booking hub to be so easy, you can do it in ten minutes on your iphone. Yes, really.

Still got questions?

But don’t worry – if you still have questions, want to custom book your session, or need to select things that aren’t included in any of my base packages, that’s okay too! Just reach out, and we can talk about your exact needs. We’ll create a bespoke package specific to you, that way you leave the studio (or your session date, if we’re not meeting at the studio!) with everything you need to update your headshots all across your online presence.

(P.S. Check out this sample of a branding session, in case you need more than just headshots!!)
