Want to Pre-Meet Your Photographer?
“…Danny instantly put me at ease” - Luz Polanco
-
Even though I’ve worked with Fortune 500 brands & top talent, I prefer just shooting headshots & portraits for people like yourself!
My love for people helps my clients feel at ease in front of my camera, and my commercial experience adds stringent technical standards for top-tier lighting, shooting, and retouching.
This makes the difference between an average headshot, and an exceptional one. Since your headshot has to last a while anyways, why not get the best, which you can proudly show off?

FYI When Hiring A Hamilton PHOTOGRAPHER
-
This might seem like a no brainer, but many people ask us “why should I hire a Hamilton headshot photographer, when I can easily have someone else take my picture for free?”
And to that, we often say, go ahead! If you can get the results you want by using a more cost-effective method, why wouldn’t you?
But often, the results people want, and the free methods available to them are in conflict—that is, you get what you pay for, and often, pay the price or pay it twice.
It’s normal to have high expectations of what our headshots or portraits should look like, which is what the key benefit of hiring a professional Hamilton portrait photographer is: great photos!!
-
Well, before you book, we always suggest checking out our pricing and packages page to see what your options are.
Otherwise, you can Book Now, and all you need is a valid credit card.
If you have urgent questions, feel free to call us. Otherwise, a simple WhatsApp or text will do.
-
If you want us to come to your office in Hamilton (or anywhere in or outside of the GTA), we can do that, so please have a look at the pricing and packages page to see what your options are!
If it’s a small team and budget is a priority, we suggest shooting inside of our Toronto-based photography studio instead! Costs will come out more favourable for you if you come to us.
-
If you’ve never been photographed, that’s ok! We work with plenty of newbies everyday and it’s actually quite a fun experience when you’re guided through it with patience and a can-do, fun, and positive attitude!
Trust us, you’ll have a ton of fun, as your photographer Danny is super positive and funny—at least, most of the time!
Oh, and why don’t you have a look at How to Prep for Your Shoot? It’ll help you better be able to visualize the whole process, and hopefully put any nerves you may have, at ease.

After working with him, many opportunities arose for me and I am very thankful for that. To say the least, Danny was able to capture me at my best. He is very professional and I can tell he loves what he does. Danny is welcoming, funny and makes you feel extremely comfortable and confident in front of the camera. Thanks Danny!”
