Despite the name, Charm City Headshots is more than just a headshot studio. Sometimes I leave the studio and venture out into the real work to make environmental portraits. Earlier in my career I was a busy newspaper freelancer, for whom environmental portraiture is a big part of the job. Now I do the same type of work for corporate, individual and institutional clients. The nice thing about this work, compared to newspaper assignments, is that I have a lot more time to prepare for the job and find the ideal time and location for the shoot.

I am happy to take passport and visa photos for you (or your dog!) during any standard studio session. In addition to standard US passport photos, we can meet the unique requirements for any foreign country or embassy. Just let me know the details before the shoot, and we'll get a passport photo that will earn the envy of your fellow travelers and bring a smile to the face of the grumpiest TSA agent!

Every year after Christmas, things get slow for a few weeks and my monkey mind starts looking for projects. Two years ago my winter project was this very website. Last winter I obsessed over a new shed for my backyard, and this year I'm back with another website.

I recently did a second location shoot with the good people who keep me warm in the winter, cool in the summer, and keep the lights on all year. I was happy to hear from BG&E again after such a great experience working for them the first time. Everyone I met at the company was super friendly, and many had worked there for decades. Clearly they are doing something right!
