Meet Lily | Sarasota Studio Headshots for Teens

Posted in Headshots, Tweens

Meet Lily. This performing teen needed new headshots for auditions. Because I come from a singing and performing background, I know how incredibly important this is. That’s why I offer natural light Studio Headshots. The beauty of this is that as long as I have a great natural light source, I can produce these headshots anywhere. Lily happens to live in Wisconsin, so these shots were taken with a portable backdrop in front of the giant windows at the Sunset Playhouse in Elm Grove.  At home in Sarasota, I can achieve the same beautiful light in the pergola area of my lanai. What is it they say about necessity? As Tim Gunn says, make it work!

    New here? Good.
    No fluff. No filters. Just real.

    I’m Michaela. I photograph seniors in that strange, in-between year. The last summer before the dorm room. The kid who still texts you the good stuff, even when she swears she’s too busy for you.

    No brick walls. No “smile because I said so.”

    I want the giggle. The walk that turns into a run because she forgot the camera was even there.

    Real photos. Real teens. Every time.

    Glad you’re here.
