You’ll walk away with images you’re proud to share and that truly represent you.
What to expect from a headshot Photoshoot
Before Your headshot Session
-
We’ll chat about what you need your headshots for — whether it’s work, castings, or personal branding.
-
We’ll pin down the vibe you want to give off — relaxed, bold, approachable, powerful, or all of the above.
-
We’ll talk styling — clothes, colours, and how to bring out your personality.
-
I’ll help you choose the package that fits your goals and budget.
-
You’ll feel prepped, confident, and ready to make a strong impression.
During The Photoshoot
-
Sessions last between 30 minutes to an hour, depending on the package you’ve picked.
-
You’ll get the chance to change outfits or looks if your package includes it.
-
I’ll ask you questions and get to know you to help you feel relaxed and confident in front of the camera.
-
While hair and make-up aren’t included in my standard packages, just say the word if you want them — I can create a custom package just for you.
-
Above all, I want this to be a fun, memorable experience where you leave feeling amazing.
After Your Photoshoot
-
Once we wrap up, we’ll say our goodbyes and I’ll get stuck into editing your images with full focus.
-
Editing usually takes about 2-3 weeks — it’s a careful, detailed process to make sure every shot looks its best.
-
I’ll invite you back to the studio to view your gallery of around 15–20 carefully selected images.
-
Together, we’ll go through your favourites and help you choose the best ones to keep and use.

TESTIMONIALS

I worked with Hazel when I needed some new headshots for my business, Styled By Susie. As much as I love a selfie, I find having my photo taken, really awkward! Hazel made the session SO much fun, she had so many creative ideas and I am thrilled with the photos she has produced. I highly recommend Hazel - she has a way of making you feel comfortable, confident and having fun all at the same time.
Dr Anna Brodski
Hazel is very kind, warm, funny & professional. She really makes you feel relaxed, appreciated, beautiful & seen. Hence the photos come out with lovely facial expressions.
I love her taste and will come back when occasion arises.
Thank you, Hazel!
Lynn
I thoroughly enjoyed my photo shoot with Hazel. She made me feel relaxed and welcome, putting me at ease immediately. I think she probably has captured some of the best photos of me I've seen. I felt so relaxed and had so much fun doing the shoot that the time just seemed to whiz by! She is so professional from start to finish and in my opinion a very talented lady.
