LOS ANGELES BUSINESS HEADSHOTS
THAT LOOK
LIKE YOU
Convey credibility, approachability, and build trust without enduring the awkward on-camera experience
YOU NEED PROFESSIONAL CORPORATE HEADSHOTS
THAT BUILD TRUST WITH POTENTIAL CLIENTS OR EMPLOYERS
But you hate having your portrait taken
You feel awkward and self-concious in front of the camera.
You don't know how to pose naturally.
You worry about how your photos will turn out and if the photographer can capture you in a flattering light.
You're tired of stiff looking headshots that don't show you as an approachable professional.
STOP WASTING TIME & MONEY ON “FAUXTOGRAPHERS”
WHO DON’T KNOW HOW TO LIGHT OR DIRECT
It’s frustrating to spend money on “pro” headshots and being unhappy with the experience and outcome
The digital revolution has lowered the barrier to entry, and these days, anyone can pick up a camera and call themselves a photographer.
The problem is, not everyone can light and direct you to bring your best face forward. Not everyone can provide a high-touch experience.
Headshots are a critical marketing tool to creating a positive first impression.
You need an experience that’s actually fun instead of awkward and you need headshots that boost your confidence, that you’re proud to show off!
ACCOLADES
FROM HAPPY CLIENTS
“Vanie is able to direct the photo shoot in a way which brings out your most real and authentic self in the pictures. In any business, authenticity is what sells.“

WE CREATE AUTHENTIC AND POLISHED HEADSHOTS
that look like you
USING GAMES AND DIRECTING TECHNIQUES
I get it, I know how scary and intimidating it can feel to be in front of the camera.
I’ve created a directing technique where I engage you in games so you feel instantly at ease, out of your own head and in the zone with me.
But most importantly…
My team and I position and find your best angles.
We create lighting that’s appropriate for your needs and flattering at the same time.
We direct you and bring out your authentic personality so you don’t look… stiff!

Imagine headshots that project confidence, competence and approachability
Headshots that help you stand out and get attention… in a good way
No more wasting money on "fauxtographers" who don't know how to light.
No more awkward photoshoots where a photographer poses you and doesn't direct you.
You'll finally have headshots that bring your best face forward and give you credibility at the same time.
You'll have headshots that are polished yet warm and personable.

Hi, I’m Vanie
LOS ANGELES CORPORATE PHOTOGRAPHER
FOR PEOPLE WHO DON’T LIKE TO POSE
And I blame my parents for the misspelling of my name. My name is actually pronounced like Bonnie (Vah-nee). Over the last 25 years I’ve helped business people like you with LA company headshots that make a strong professional introduction. Whether you shoot with me or my trained team, Kayvon and Joe, you’ll receive a fun, collaborative experience and headshots that are more than just a stiff picture – powerful marketing tools that build trust with potential clients or employers.
CAN’T WAIT TO MEET YOU!
Selected as the Photographer for Comedian Romesh Ranganathan in Showtime’s “Just Another Immigrant”

WITHOUT GOOD LIGHTING AND HANDS-ON DIRECTION
I KNOW YOU’LL CONTINUE TO USE OLD OLD PHOTOS THAT DON’T LOOK LIKE YOU
You’ll always feel unnatural in front of the camera.
You’ll struggle with posing, facial expressions and how your features appear.
Dare I say, you’ll never strike that balance between professional and approachable.
