People-focused NYC headshots
About Gareth
Gareth photographs people professionally and respectfully, with a practical process built around direction, comfort, expression, and the way the final images need to be used.
Approach
Clear direction without forcing people into a narrow version of professionalism.
Gareth works with corporate teams, executives, schools, organizations, small businesses, nonprofits, and individuals who need headshots that feel current and useful.
The process is direct and human: practical posing, expression coaching, attention to comfort, and enough time for people to settle into the camera.
For teams
Organized portrait workflows for offices, staff directories, LinkedIn updates, leadership pages, and organization-wide refreshes.
For schools
Planning around student flow, administrators, picture-day logistics, yearbook needs, and cap and gown portraits.
For individuals
Outdoor and location-based portraits for LinkedIn, profiles, professional bios, and personal branding.
For camera-shy people
Specific guidance that gives people something useful to do instead of leaving them to perform confidence on command.
Planning comes first
Before the session, the project is scoped around people, timing, location, background, image usage, delivery needs, and whether styling support would help.
Preparation is practical
Wardrobe, grooming, glasses, gender expression, body comfort, and what to bring are handled as practical choices, not rigid rules.
Respect is part of direction
Sessions are directed with respect for gender, race, sexuality, body type, age, disability, neurotype, and professional background.
