Team headshot day · San Francisco

In short

Team headshot day in San Francisco starts at $1,400: 5 hours on location with a photographer who works in San Francisco, and 40 edited photos delivered to a private gallery within 5 business days.

Why choose Team headshot day in San Francisco?

The specific problem a San Francisco company has is a distributed team. Half the engineering org is in another state and the About page looks like a collage, because it is one. What an on-site day solves is consistency: everyone in the office photographed against an identical background under identical light in one afternoon, and everyone outside it photographed separately to the same written specification so the two sets match.

Worth knowing about San Francisco

The remote half is the part worth planning at the same time as the office day rather than afterwards. A background specification, a lighting brief and a crop are agreed once and applied to staff in other cities, so a directory assembled six months later still matches. Booked separately and later, it never does — and the mismatch is more visible on a company page than any individual photograph’s quality.

FAQ — Team headshot day in San Francisco

How many people can be photographed in a day?

Forty in five hours, at roughly seven minutes each including changeover. That holds if there is a booking sheet and somebody internally owns it; walk-up sessions halve the throughput because the set sits idle between people. A scheduling sheet is supplied with the booking for that reason.

Can you photograph our remote team members?

Yes. Staff outside the Bay Area are photographed in their own city against the same background specification and lit to match, so the directory reads as one team. It is quoted per person, and it is worth arranging at the same time as the office day rather than months later.
