First Impression, Lasting Impact

Over 100 5-Star Reviews and counting! ★★★★★

Make your Pittsburgh headshot worth a thousand words!

Your headshot can subconsciously deliver a powerful message, make it one to propel your career, project or image!  In just a second, you can make a positive first impression with a professional headshot.  The effort and investment in professional headshots will be well worth it and Captivating Imagery makes it easy!

Need your headshot right away?  No problem.  Our Cranberry Township studio is easy to get to from I-79.  At Captivating Imagery, we prioritize headshots and block off time in our calendar to allow for a quick 2-day turnaround and offer a next-day rush service as well.

Our sessions are mainly determined by length and the number of retouched files included.  All headshots include traditional studio lighting and your choice of backdrop.

The Executive Headshot session includes both studio lighting and natural light headshots during the peak natural light in-studio (10 a.m. to 2 p.m.) and the Branding Session takes place in the studio and on-location photography to capture you in settings related to your brand.

See the difference a professional headshot photographer can make with retouching.

BeforeAfter

At Captivating Imagery, your headshots are hand-retouched by your photographer.

Authentic Expression

Your headshot should be uniquely yours.  We want to learn about what you do and the message you want to convey.  And we will work with you to create headshots that reflect your character and confidence.  We offer natural light as well as studio lighting and have a variety of backdrops you can choose from.  Bring a second outfit for a different look.  We have a dressing room stocked with hair spray, bobby pins, combs, fashion tape and a lint roller.

Painless Experience

We also make the process easy and painless.  Our professionalism and comfortable studio setting make for a surprisingly pleasant experience!  You can see your images throughout the session as we photograph tethered to a laptop.  This can be helpful in making sure you’re getting the results you want.

Usage Included

Headshots include a non-exclusive, perpetual license for the company and the person pictured to use the images for professional and promotional purposes, including websites, social media, print materials, and press. Paid advertising, resale, and alteration beyond cropping require written permission. Captivating Imagery retains copyright.

Hair and Makeup Available

We offer hair and makeup at the studio as an add-on.  When you book your session, let Kate know that you’d like to add hair and makeup and she will set it up.

Our Process

In Five Simple Steps

  1. Book your session online or reach out to Kate with any questions and she can email you a booking proposal when you’re ready to reserve your session.
  2. Your session is entered into Captivating Imagery’s system.  You’ll receive a welcome email as well as a questionnaire to help plan your session.
  3. It’s time for your photoshoot!  Plan to arrive at the studio or the designated location 10 minutes prior to your session so you’re not rushed.  We’ll work together to create something beautiful!
  4. Choose your selections for retouching immediately following your session or opt for an online proofing gallery and make your selections on your own.
  5. Retouched files are delivered within two days of making your selections.

Kind Words

We used Captivating Imagery for professional headshots, and it was a great experience. Kate was amazing to work with and we are extremely pleased with the photos we received. Highly recommend!

Kate did an amazing job with our employee’s professional headshot! She delivered exactly what we asked for. Thank you so much!

Katie did a great job with my professional headshots for my new job! Super friendly and gave great tips to help me pose and get the right lighting.

Kate did an exceptional job for our company out-in-the-field photos. Exceptionally professional — would highly recommend for small businesses seeking to up their website and professional presentation.
