New date for Headshot Photos - including hair and make up

A professional headshot is often the first thing people notice when they 'meet' you online either on your website or on your social media platforms. Make sure the first impression, is the right impression! If your headshot is out-of-date or a blurry holiday snap, then please consider coming along to our next headshot day on Friday 24th November at My Workspot in Maidenhead (full venue details below).

These sessions offer fantastic value for money and are extremely time efficient. You simply book a one hour time slot, come along in your chosen outfit and we'll do the rest!

For just £100* , we will work with you to create a beautiful headshot, which you can use to create the right impression for your business.

Alison Oswald , the UK’s number 1 Sales Director of Mary Kay will take care of your hair and make up. Alison has a very natural style and all previous clients have felt her make-up has enhanced their appearance and given them more confidence for the photo shoot (see below for 'before' and 'after' photos of one of our previous clients). Then Pennie Withers of Photos by Pennie will take a stunning headshot, again in a very natural, relaxed but professional way.

Together, a bespoke hair, make up and headshot session would usually cost £175, so why not take us up on this fantastic offer and have a new headshot which you can use anywhere you would like for just £100 ! For the men out there, Alison can offer a haircut and/or facial hair trim for the same price. Alternatively, if you would rather just have your photos taken, without the hair and make-up, the price is £50, which offers exceptional value for money. Please note that a headshot alone (no hair and make up) would be a 30 minute booking.

Our next headshot day is on Friday 24th November between 9.15 and 5.15 at My Workspot, 2nd Floor, 85 King Street, Maidenhead, SL6 1DU. (See below for map and parking information)

Please just email us to find out what slots are available or if you would like any more information, please give Pennie a call on 07715 889457.

Frequently asked questions:

• What will Alison do?
  You turn up with your hair washed and dried as you usually would and Ali will work her magic, for that salon look – she will straighten it if necessary and she will also apply very natural make up, so it’s best to turn up with no make up on at all. For men, Alison can give your hair (and/or beard) a trim and still make you ‘camera-ready’.
  
• What should I wear?
  Wear whatever you would usually wear to meet a client. This will create the right impression for your professional photograph. Perhaps a crisp white shirt with a coloured jacket/cardigan/scarf? Pennie will take a number of variations so that you have a choice of photographs to choose from. Bring a couple of changes if you're not sure and Pennie can advise you.
  
• How will the session work?
  You will be given your hour-long time slot. Turn up 5 minutes before so that you are ready for your hair and make up to be done first. This will take approx. half an hour to forty minutes then Pennie will take your photo and you will be done. Please note, a session for just a headshot with no hair and make-up will be 30 minutes.
  
• What will happen after the session?
  You will be sent an email with a link to an online, password protected gallery where you can expect to see up to 10-12 different photographs. Once you choose your favourite image, Pennie will email it to you as a high-resolution jpeg which you can use in any media over any time period. She will also give you a specific Linkedin crop for you to that you can upload it straight away without any resizing.
