I recently had the opportunity to photograph Jen, who spent years working in humanitarian aid for the federal government. She was recently laid off from USAID, but instead of slowing down, she’s leaning into new and exciting directions…and needed headshots to match.

When Jen reached out, she shared that she wanted to come across as professional and polished, but not overly formal.Just clean, modern, confident images that feel like her.

Photographing federal employees, consultants, and professionals in career transitions is one of my favorite parts of branding photography. These are not just LinkedIn photos. They are portraits of a person stepping into their next chapter with clarity and confidence.

Thanks, Jen, for trusting me to help tell this part of your story.
