San Francisco Professional Headshot Photographer

 

The headshot session professionals across the Bay Area are lining up for.


Natural. Confident. Unmistakably you.

A headshot that actually looks like you

 

A great headshot isn’t about lighting or camera settings - it’s about expression, connection, and creating an image that truly represents who you are.

I’ve worked with executives, entrepreneurs, and professionals across San Francisco and the Bay Area, and at the end of the day, they all want the same three things:

  • To look like themselves - natural, confident, and approachable.
  • To feel comfortable in front of the camera - no stiff poses, no forced smiles.
  • To NOT relive high school picture day - no countdown, no rushed flashes. Just a relaxed, guided experience.

A great headshot is more than a picture. It’s a first impression, a confidence booster, a door opener.

Every session contributes to something bigger.

Through my Headshots for Humanity initiative, I’ve partnered with the San Francisco Disabilities Business Alliance (SFDBA). For every headshot session booked, I donate $50 in your name directly to the SFDBA - helping support the local business community that makes this city thrive.

Great headshots and a great cause. That’s a win-win.

Frequently Asked Questions

Please reach us at michael@michaelpegram.com if you cannot find an answer to your question.

 I have a studio in San Francisco’s Lower Pacific Heights neighborhood, and I also travel to your office or any Bay Area location. My mobile setup brings professional studio lighting wherever you need it.


 Solid colors photograph best — avoid busy patterns and large logos. I send a detailed prep guide before every session covering outfit choices, hair, makeup, and what to bring. No guesswork on your end.


 

Yes, this is one of the most popular services I offer. I bring a full studio lighting setup to your office so every team member is photographed with consistent lighting and style, even across different days or locations.


 

AI headshots look like AI headshots. A real session with a real photographer captures your genuine expression, personality, and energy - the things that make people want to work with you. LinkedIn connections can tell the difference. No uncanny valley vibes!


 

For individuals, 1 - 2 weeks in advance is usually enough. For team sessions and corporate bookings, 3 - 4 weeks is ideal. I do take last-minute bookings when my schedule allows.
