Questions to ask a headshot photographer

With tvi’s headshot event taking place on November 7th, I thought it might be a good idea to have a few questions to ask. With over 15 of New York’s top headshot talent under one roof, being prepared by knowing what to ask is essential. Here are a few to consider:
1) Shoot in studio or on location?
2) How many rolls of film or digital shots are included in the price?
3) How many changes or looks are usually done?
4) How long after the shoot do I see the proofs?
5) How long do photo sessions usually run?
6) Is re-touching included in the print fee?
7) What happens if I am not happy with the results?-
Hope this helps! I look forward to meeting you at this cool free event…did I say free? Give tvi a call for reservations!
