Corporate head shots that make everyone look like the CEO

On-site corporate headshot sessions with Lee Seidenberg Photography usually start at $2,500 for a quarter day. Because every company and situation is different, I prefer to create a custom proposal. I'm available anywhere in New Jersey or New York City, pre-production and scheduling, a custom booking page for your team, an online proofing gallery, one retouched final image per person, and unlimited usage rights. Larger firms, multiple offices, and annual refresh programs get a custom proposal.

I come to you. I build a full studio — lighting, backdrop, tethered laptop — in your conference room, lobby, or an empty office, and break it down the same day. On-site is included for anywhere in New Jersey and New York City. I also shoot in my Maplewood, New Jersey studio when it's a handful of executives or a makeup session for people who missed shoot day.

Five to ten minutes per person. A team of 40 fits comfortably in a half day, and a team of 70 fits in a half day when we run a tight schedule. Each person still gets real direction — posing, hands, chin, shoulders, and expression coaching — because five minutes with a director beats twenty minutes of someone telling you to say cheese.

One lighting setup, one background, one photographer, one retouching standard, in one visit. That's the whole answer, and it's why bio pages break: they get built one hire at a time over six years by four different photographers. When new people join, I match the original setup exactly so the person hired in year three looks like they belong to the same firm as the founding partner.

Solid mid-tone or dark colors, a jacket or blazer if that's how your clients see you, minimal pattern, and nothing brand new. I send every person a prep guide before shoot day with specifics for their situation, so nobody arrives guessing. Two other things that matter more than people expect: get a haircut a week out, not the day before, and bring a second top for a different look.

You do, with unlimited usage rights. Use them on your website, LinkedIn, press releases, email signatures, conference materials, recruiting decks, pitch decks — no licensing terms, no per-use fees, no expiration. Files are delivered sized and cropped for each of those uses, because a LinkedIn square and a website bio banner are not the same crop.

Everywhere in the state. My studio is in Maplewood, and on-site corporate work regularly takes me to Newark, Jersey City, Hoboken, Morristown, Madison, Summit, Short Hills, Roseland, Florham Park, Woodbridge, Clark, Colonia, Edison, Princeton, Red Bank, and Toms River. Essex and Union County are my backyard. Travel and setup are included statewide.

Yes. Manhattan, Brooklyn, and the outer boroughs are included at no additional travel cost — I spent 20+ years in New York advertising and still shoot there constantly. My Talkspace campaign with Michael Phelps ran city-wide across the subway system.

Yes. I've photographed executives and teams across the country, and for multi-office companies I'll build a schedule that covers every location with the same lighting and same look so your bio page reads as one company. Travel outside New Jersey and New York City is quoted at cost in your proposal.

Law firms are the largest part of my corporate practice — Lowenstein Sandler and Ford Marrin among them. Firms have a specific problem: partners, associates, and staff all need to project authority without looking interchangeable, and the bio page is often the first thing a prospective client sees. I shoot the whole roster in one visit, match new associates to the existing look as they're hired, and work around court schedules.
