PROFESSIONAL HEADSHOTS Make a strong first impression, call 281.665.3868. Master Professional Photographer Sabrina Casas, M Photog. CPP (PPA) Book Now Quick Summary Why High-Quality Headshots These days more than ever, a headshot is a core part of everyone's professional branding . Across all industries, people work and collaborate online more than ever before. That is, in part, a lasting and staying consequence of the post-pandemic modern professional work environment . But the pandemic just accelerated what was already a trending pattern in large and small companies alike, working across the country or internationally to reach coworkers, clients, or vendors. A good headshot is a critical investment in your career and, along your career path , will show your professional development over time. Aiming for the type of quality photography that creates memorable images true to who you are is essential. You will use your new headshot every day and with almost everyone you work with. And you won't be there in the room when your headshot reaches all these people. Is your headshot something you are proud of? Attention To Detail How many times have you read in job descriptions that " attention to detail " is one of the top skills looked for by employers? It is enough to check LinkedIn, Indeed, or any other job board to realize those two words are everywhere. Your headshot and profile picture is one of the very first pieces of personal and professional branding that a recruiter or headhunter will see. Likewise, it goes together with all your invitations to connect, besides every comment you make in a post or any post you share with your network. You heard it: "An image says more than a thousand words." And your headshot tells it all. Did you care to create a good quality image , working with a good photographer, or was it just a cheap, check-the-box type of photo? An image says more than a thousand words Choosing The Top & The Best Photographers There are many good photographers out there and many other options, too... At Sabrina's Photography Studios, we focus on quality , personalized service, tailored sessions, high-quality post-production editing, and a process from planning to delivery that creates the strong and premium images you deserve and need for your career. Because every person is different, and every face is as unique as every one of us, it really takes a specialized set of skills and an experienced photographer to understand how to pose you to look your best. Coaching is a skill honed over time and repetition , and then sustained and nurtured by Sabrina's approach to continuous improvement to loop lessons learned from one shoot into the next. That's what a truly exceptional professional is about. "Amateurs train hard to get that one perfect shot; professionals train hard so they never miss a shot. " One of the many strengths that Sabrina brings to the table is her continuous education and eagerness to keep up with the latest trends in photography. Photography is an ever-evolving industry with new technologies advancing possibilities every year, from Artificial Intelligence to new cameras, gears, and gigantic leaps in editing software capabilities. Sabrina is a member of several professional associations , including the PPA , PPGH , and TPPA . She holds her professional certification, CPP, with PPA and achieved the prestigious degree of Master of Photography with this institution, too. Finally, but no less, Sabrina is an award-winning photographer at photographic competitions of all levels, from Houston to the renowned International Photographic Competition . Most recently, Sabrina was awarded the top honor at the PPGH as the Houston Best Photographer of the Year 2023 in the Active Category, which is a major distinction in one of the nation's most competitive and large metro areas. Photographers have highly coveted the award since its first edition in 1979 . It requires top-notch skills and the endurance to participate for the whole year producing set after set of high-rated images. Houston Best Photographer of the Year 2023 in the Active Category The Headshot Session. What to Expect. We offer three base packages for your headshots, each provides a few different options depending on the duration of the session and the number of images included with your package, but all of them are with the same, award-winning photographer, Sabrina Casas, M Photog, CPP (PPA) . So, the most critical part of the whole process (the photographer) will always be the same regardless of your chosen option, guaranteeing the best results. The whole process starts with a quick consultation over the phone to understand what you are looking for and what was your previous experience with these types of photography and then help you choose a base package that fits what you need before looking at scheduling. We will also discuss planning , from outfit options and makeup and hair to the selection process for your final images and delivery of the digital files. Sabrina is proud to have many five-star reviews at Google and takes your business very seriously. Here are three of our favorite reviews and a brief story of how we got to know these fabulous clients. Ricardo's Five Stars Review (Pro Headshots) Jessica's Five Stars Review (Corporte Headshots) Christy's Five Stars Review (Headshots For Success) "My picture was on par with that of the president and the CIO " Professional Headshots Packages Having a few pre-selected packages helps keep things simple , and that's why we have three standard, or base, packages you can choose from: Headshots For Success , Pro Headshots , and Quick Headshots . Of course, we can always work with you and be creative to help you achieve a specific result. The ability to think out of the box is one of Sabrina's strengths that comes from her diverse experience as a photographer who works not only in portrait photography but also in the commercial field. Headshots For Success This session is the most complete and longer of all three, providing more extended time to work with Sabrina in the studio and much more customized input on the planning stage previous to the session. The Headshots For Success is an excellent choice for those starting their marketing for the first time but who do not want to invest in a full personal branding session. Most people who choose this session are entrepreneurs, independent professionals, consultants, anyone in the personal or business coaching industry, and many realtors. Pro Headshots The Pro Headshots session is the most popular of all our packages providing a good mix of time on session with Sabrina, planning feedback, and a very competitive entry point from the pricing side, with the option to tap into a couple of limited promotions , including one for makeup and hair with one of the best makeup and hair stylists in town. Because of the high demand for these types of sessions, you must be ready to decide when calling to tap into the promotions. The Pro Headshots session suits all professionals looking to upgrade their networking, business branding, career options and those working remotely or online. These days, with so many companies sticking with hybrid work schedules , your headshot will be seen by your coworkers more than the actual you. So, investing in a headshot that goes well with where you want your career to go is smart. Quick Headshots As the name of this session suggests, the emphasis here is on speed . The Quick Headshots session is exactly what you need when rushing to meet a deadline. It is a fast, short, simple option that offers digital images delivered on the same day and on your hands . You can take the photos with you in our nice flash drive (included with the session) or have them delivered by Dropbox (no need to create an account). Note that same-day delivery does not mean a walk-in policy . Like many busy professionals, good photographers are in high demand, and sometimes you may need to wait up to a couple of weeks to fit into Sabrina's schedule. Pricing & Quality As in many other industries, photographers are priced based on experience and skill level. Good photographers aren't expensive but are well paid , as is fair with any professional who excels in their field. The best way to get an exact quote for what you are looking for is to fill in our online booking application and then have a consultation over the phone with our studio manager to discuss the specific details. It only takes about 30 minutes; we will listen and won't push you to purchase anything. It is really just a consultation and a good chat with us as experts in our field and with you as a member of the same community where we live. That said, we understand that everyone's situation is different. Sabrina has occasionally made exceptions and provided courtesy discounts or entirely shot for free because of the client's circumstances. Sabrina wants to make her photography affordable to as many people as possible while respecting the effort, time, and hard work put in for all good photographers to make a living while keeping up with their education and investment in constantly evolving new technology and trends. It is hard to be a photographer, it is harder to be a good photographer, and it is harder yet to make a living from it. We also want to give back to the community with our skills and talents. We offer discounts and promotions to those who have served in our country's defense and security as veterans, members of the military, police, and firefighters and their families, among others. We also greatly appreciate the role of educators in the present and future of the communities we live in and want to make our work affordable for them. So they can also enjoy the best quality we can offer. Because your circumstances are as unique as you , please schedule a consultation , and let's chat about what you are looking for. It is a good idea to reach a few photographers and chat with them, but focus on more than just the pricing when doing so. Your headshot is an essential part of how you are seen professionally . You are right to choose a photographer you feel comfortable working with and whose work delivers on their promises. Explore Your Options. Let's Talk!

AUTHOR > < Fernanda's Review: "Was a pleasure to work with Sabrina and Emilio. She is an excellent photographer! The headshot was great and exactly what we were looking for." Fernanda reached out to us looking to help her daughter, Beatriz, move forward with her starting career in the acting industry . Beatriz had been taking acting classes with a coach since a few years ago, and she had already had some experience on stage. However, like many young aspiring professionals in the industry, Beatriz had changed a lot since her first headshot. It was about time to refresh her image with a more contemporary look that would help Beatriz match better roles. During the photoshoot, Sabrina helped Beatriz relax, enjoy the session and create images that would show a few expressions she wanted to broadcast for potential roles during her applications. Presentation Cover Having a few different headshots is vital to help you grab the attention of casting directors and in many other areas of your career. Of course, it is also essential that the headshot shows you , your personality, skills, and strengths for those roles that you have better chances of landing. By the way, I welcome you to check the article on Backstage.com called " Actor Headshots: a Guide " with lots of excellent information and tips about this topic (check the link below). These sessions can be anything you need, from just a few well-planned shots to a much more complete session including makeup and hair, a few different outfits, and many images from headshots to full body shots. Most aspiring actors would be fine with a few strong headshots, and you don't need to make a significant investment to get on the right track.

AUTHOR > < Michele's Review: Sabrina Casas Photography provides excellent corporate photos and advisement throughout the entire process, with a professional eye not just for the photography but also for incorporation into marketing and social media strategy. Sabrina and Emilio were great to work with, communicating throughout the process for planning. We had the pleasure of helping Michele with the headshots for their C-level team , including individual sets of images and team pictures. When she first called, she had carefully reviewed photographers around the area and was looking for someone that could provide consistency and great photos for their marketing. Michele works in an IT consulting company , and from the get-go, it was clear that one of the company's unique strengths was the deep understanding and friendship between the leadership team . They all worked together for several years in various roles and knew each other well. It was clear to me, from my own experience working in large corporations, that their leadership team could tap into each other strengths just because of their genuine working relationship . I wanted to capture that unique aspect of their company with the help of Sabrina's eye and skills as a photographer. As I was working with Michelle during the planning phase, we carefully selected a spot that would fit the company plans to bring everyone together in Houston for about a week -most of the team was based off the West Coast. During the photoshoot, Sabrina was able to create a perfect set of headshots and half-body shots for the individual profiles of each of the executives while also capturing plenty of photos of t he team working together . Meeting the team in person and working with them was fun and provided yet, another opportunity to learn about each of them for the next time. If you need help developing the type of branding that will help show the culture and strengths of your company through your leadership team, please call us. Adding the skills and talents that Sabrina, a top talented photographer, and myself, a former corporate professional, can bring to the table will enrich your pool of options and ideas to move forward and outshine your competition.

AUTHOR > < SUMMARY & CONTENTS This article is a quick five-minutes read looking into the renewed role of professional headshots and personal branding in the new work environment dominated by remote work and increasing online presence for professionals and workers in all industries. INTRODUCTION WE ARE VISUAL CREATURES REMOTE WORKING YOUNG PROFESSIONALS NETWORKING & YOUR HEADSHOT HOW GOOD IS YOUR HEADSHOT? REAL WORKPLACE STORY MORE INTRODUCTION The workplace in America has always been a competitive environment , constantly evolving from the time Henry Ford developed the first assembly line and Frederick Taylor pushed his Scientific Management principles to the upcoming artificial intelligence revolution. Progressing in any organization goes beyond individual performance . Career progression often involves managing people and interacting with vendors and clients. Here is where emotional intelligence plays a factor built upon soft skills and people skills. None of the above is new, but it stands to logic that professionals and workers must look beyond performance to help their careers, and here is where an often overlooked element comes to play with us as photographers : your headshot . Professionals must look beyond performance and soft skills to progress in their careers. WE ARE VISUAL CREATURES Yes, we all are visual creatures , and while being pretty shouldn't be the reason for anyone to move ahead in an organization, understanding the importance that your image carries to others as a representation of your team and your company does make a difference. Your image is a combination of your physical image and your online presence within an organization. And, you can reach only so many people in person during your busy work schedule. At the same time, your headshot, and other business portrait images, aren't limited by the time you spend with each other individual in your company and beyond. Your headshot and personal branding work all the time for you, for good or for bad, and they are seen (and judged) without you being around to defend them. The larger an organization is, the more critical your digital footprint is. Headshots are not just a first-impression maker but a lasting impression that your supervisors, colleagues, and direct reports will constantly come upon in their Microsoft Outlook systems, Microsoft Teams calls, email signatures, corporate directories, org charts, LinkedIn profiles, and more. Is your headshot the best impression of the professional you are? Is your headshot the best impression of the professional you are? REMOTE WORKING It is not fresh news that since the pandemic, more and more people have been working remotely. Still, the unexpected aspect of the whole situation was that remote working lasted this long for many and that the workplace has become a hybrid system. Most of your coworkers don't see you in person as often as they did before or never at all One of those changes that come with remote working is that most of your coworkers don’t see you in person as often as they did before . That’s when your headshot becomes your avatar representing you in the workplace; people see your headshot more than they see you . YOUNG PROFESSIONALS That lack of face-to-face interaction is even more acute for young professionals who just recently joined the workforce and started working from day one from home. While the deal has many benefits, such as saving you a long commute or having to relocate, there is also a massive impact on the social aspect of connecting with the people who work with you. That is not a minor detail to overlook. Young professionals need good headshots more than ever. Getting to know the rest of the team is important for effective teamwork and communication. When people don't get to know you, they will use other pieces of information to understand who you are and how you work. That's where your headshot (and any other images of you that you share professionally) will play a more significant role in your career and interactions with coworkers, supervisors, and direct reports. The gap in social clues caused by the lack of face-to-face contact also drives more social media connections with coworkers to fill the gap. NETWORKING & YOUR HEADSHOT In addition to the above is the matter of networking; and how your network becomes both: your job security and your source of new job opportunities . Building a solid network is hard to do when you cannot shake hands, share lunch, chat after a meeting or before while having a coffee, etc., but that does not mean that the opportunity isn't there, just that in order to build a strong network you have to work with the online portals, social media and digital media that is replacing those other opportunities. If your company, as most these days, uses Microsoft Office and Outlook, you know that your headshot shows right there, beside your name, when someone receives an email from you. While many people pay no attention to their corporate profile picture , the truth is that your headshot is a key part of your branding and tells a lot about you. HOW GOOD IS YOUR HEADSHOT? Is your headshot a professional headshot or just a selfie? Did you go to a studio or just cropped a photo from your wedding? Are you smiling, or do you look too serious? Is your headshot current, or is it one of those photos where you look just out of college? I’m sure you have seen all the above situations in your workplace and the same counts for LinkedIn. Your headshot is part of your personal presentation , and your headshot either supports or (negatively) impacts every other piece of information you share with your coworkers during your working day. Think about your headshot as your most important marketing ; working for you as a good logo works for a brand. You need a headshot that makes you feel confident and helps you reach your goals. REAL WORKPLACE STORY About real workplace stories and opportunities for your new headshot to play a role in your career, check this review from Ricardo ( Ricardo's Review ). After having his new headshot, he found himself at a Zoom call with the CIO and a few other top executives and his headshot was at the level he needed to shine.

AUTHOR > < Another situation we often see at the studio is clients who have been with the very same headshot for too long and now they look nothing like their headshot . A lot of today's business and the very important "first contact" happen on digital. Imagine that one of your clients refers you to someone else and that person googles your web page, Facebook or some other pieces of your digital you. Then after a few conversations on the phone, text messages or emails you both meet in person but your client cannot truly tell you are the same person than the one on your (very outdated) headshot... Yes, the awkward feeling will all go away after a hopefully brief and uncomfortable moment but you only have one chance to make a first impression .... We recommend renewing your headshot every three to five years. Keep your profile picture in LinkedIn and your corporate website fresh and current. If you are afraid of the camera, then moreover you need to take this seriously. The reason why we recommend a full photoshoot session instead of a quick shot is because you get extra time to relax and warm up to the camera. While you are not in control of what happens when someone googles you, or what device your client or the headhunter, is using to find you, you do have control of how good that headshot looks and how professionally it presents you.

AUTHOR PROFILE Emilio Castro In my role at the studio, as the Studio Manager, I take pride in keeping the logistics of our work running smoothly for our clients from first contact to delivery. I like to think that our customer service is second to none. Of course, having been married to Sabrina for over +25 years, I truly enjoy her every achievement as she creates beautiful work for our clients and her own projects. I have a background in Accounting & Business Management and have worked in the Oil & Gas industry for over 17 years leading supply chain teams in international and domestic markets. I achieved the Lean Bronze Certification during my time at Halliburton and later discovered the benefit of Scrum and Agile Project Management when working for BP. I am a fan of continuous improvement and enjoy leading diverse teams of every kind while working for those large companies. I'm also a self-taught web developer and coder, a Certified Remote Pilot (I fly our drones), and a self-published fantasy author, among many other small feats and accidents. AUTHOR > < Christian's Review: Excellent customer service, Sabrina and Emilio absolutely exceeded my expectations. I am very happy with the system they have in place to select the best pictures and I'm satisfied with the time and quality I received them. When we first met Christian, he was starting his career in real estate and had just obtained his real estate license. While he did not have direct experience working as a realtor, Christian began investing and selling real estate a few years ago and did so well that he decided to go full-time in the industry. Christian had recently moved from New Jersey, and he realized that having a solid professional image would be imperative since that first impression would work really well for him. Christian didn't have the advantage of a local network of friends and family to tap into when trying to develop leads and gain experience in Houston. During our first call, I pointed Christian to the type of session that could help him cover the multiple marketing opportunities an agent has for his marketing, including the HAR profile picture, business cards, social media pages, and his broker's website . Referral Network - Why Your Headshot Matters One of the main sources of new business generation for realtors is their referral network. That is when someone who knows you, either a former client or someone from your close network, passes your name along to a potential seller or buyer. Usually, your contact information is shared together with some type of appreciation from those who are referring you based on their experience working with you but regardless of that, the most likely next step for that potential client is to Google you ... And guess what piece of marketing would be between the very first your potential client will find online? Yes! Is that headshot you have in HAR, or in your broker's website, or in your new Facebook page. Your headshot is one of the very first impressions you will make on potential clients . Is that a good impression? Your headshot is an example of the quality and attention to detail that you deliver. Think about this as if you were hiring any other service. Would you hire someone who's headshot shows that he or she didn't care at all? Or would you hire someone who looks as professional and successful as the person you are going to trust one of your most important assets? Investing in a good headshot by working with a good photographer is one of those marketing projects that makes a huge difference in the real estate industry.

Some industries are more formal and your customers expect to see that on your team, while other industries are more informal and casual by nature. Some companies have lots of young people working for them while others have a variety of diverse people accross the company. The photography will capture all these aspects of your team as we work to create a set of images that you can use in your website, brochures, flyers, ads, etc...
