SESSIONS

Here are some BTS (behind-the-scenes) videos recorded during my sessions. These videos give you a glimpse into what goes on in the studio and how I achieve the final results you see in the images. During the shoot, I review the shots in real-time and share the progress with you.

A Headshot Mini Session with Joanna

In this short video you can see the process of shooting headshots and reviewing the images. We did 24 shots for 6 minutes and then chose the final one.

Headshot Session with Anna (Russian w/ English and Spanish subtitles)

Every photographer will confirm: the most challenging subjects to photograph are family members. Relatives always hold a special position; they are already quite tired of us at home, and now we have to interact in the studio and try to do our best. No way!

But new photos are needed by everyone, and finally, after about a year of persistent and not-so-persistent persuasion, my beloved wife ended up in front of my camera. I took full advantage of this opportunity and shot not only photos but also video. The final result, which will soon appear on Anna's social media, I will show at the end of the video.

This video is in Russian. If you are not familiar with the language, just turn on the English or Spanish subtitles, and enjoy the show!

Как профессиональный хэдшот может помочь вашей карьере

“Почему фото в резюме / LinkedIn / мессенджерах так важно и может повлиять на вашу карьеру? ⁠Стоит ли включать фото в резюме? В каких странах точно лучше обойтись без фото в CV? ⁠Где вы можете использовать деловое фото, где ваша голова крупным планом?”

и многие другие вопросы обсудили с карьерным консультантом Ольгой Мокриенко.

An Interview to Joana Martinez, HR & Organizational Psychology Specialist.

We covered some basics of why a professional headshot is so important, not only for the resume but also for 24/7 self-representation online. I shared some shocking statistics of how people treat themselves in terms of a personal branding, explained why selfies work against you and showed some examples of how a good headshot should look like and why it stands out.

An Interview to Rafal Wegiel

My Canadian colleague Rafal, an excellent photographer and host of a photography-related podcast with many fascinating guests, honored me by inviting me to his show. Being interviewed by someone who knows the topic even better than I do (Rafal has been in the photography business much longer than I have) is something special. I hope you find it interesting too.
