“I took some time to go through the galleries and work of headshot photographers in the area. I wanted to see images that make a statement and capture something of the person besides it just being a portrait: a spark, personality, feel, or vibe – whatever you might call it. Once I saw Ian’s gallery – I kept on returning back to if exactly for these reasons.

We scheduled an appointment. The headshot session at his studio was informative and a lot of fun. Ian took the time to review the shots with me during the session and in the end captured a remarkably high number of excellent shots and also provided guidance to what makes a great headshot which should have made it easier to choose the pictures.

The number of great images made choosing a couple of them really, really hard. He took the time to find out what I was looking for, and then went beyond it. The images I chose are a notch above what I was hoping and looking for – and what comes & shines out of Ian’s gallery is how his work “talks” about the person!
