Reduced Price Headshots for Federal Employees | Silver Spring, MD

February 14, 2025 Ginny Thomas

Supporting Federal Employees in Transition

Recently I had the opportunity to offer free headshots to federal employees (or anyone effected by the new administration) who have recently been let go and are facing an uncertain future. It was a small way to help, and I was truly moved by how much this resonated and brought hope.

While I can’t continue offering free sessions indefinitely, I do want to make professional headshots as accessible as possible for those in need. For the next few months, I’ll be offering discounted studio headshots for federal employees at $150 (regularly $375)—a way to keep this going while covering my costs.


Hair and Makeup

If you are interested in a short 35 minute hair/makeup before your session, Valerie Hammer Makeup Artistry is offering an $85 discounted session. Her studio is 2 minutes away and we could coordinate a date where you go straight from her studio to mine.


If this could help you or someone you know, please reach out. And if you’re in a position to help others, whether through resources, connections, or just encouragement, let’s continue finding ways to lift each other up.

Here is a link to others also working to uplift our community during this time.

Welcome to the world, baby E! 💛

This sweet boy was a total rockstar during his lifestyle newborn session, so calm, so snuggly, and already so very loved.

Emma and Ada... truly one of my favorite duos to photograph. 🥹💛 Their session was full of joy, play, and so much love. From spontaneous dance parties to the sweetest quiet moments, these two remind me why I love what I do.

Mother-daughter sessions
A few days in Cape May, NJ with Grammy and Pop Pop—just what we needed.

We had a little rain, but that didn’t stop the beach time, arcade games, and all the ice cream breaks.  Cape May holds a special place since I grew up going with my

Back with one of my favorite extended families—this time at a new spot: Red Gate Park 🌳

It was warm, the kids were happy, and we had full access to fields, running and the ultimate kid magnet: a giant sand pit. 😄

Say hi to baby Zoe 

This sweet in-home newborn session had everything I love: chill vibes, cozy light, and a two-year-old big brother doing exactly what two-year-olds do best - whatever they want. :) 

I always say: don’t worry if things feel
Over the past few months, I’ve continued offering discounted headshots for federal employees navigating unexpected career shifts, job eliminations, or pivoting to something new. It’s not something I post about often because most clients p
Extended family sessions can feel a little chaotic… but this family? They brought the love, the laughter, and the fun cousin energy. 

Thanks to this amazing bunch for showing up, showing love, and making it such a joy to capture!
