Maryam Thompson Photography

I believe everybody is photogenic. If you don't have many pictures of yourself that you like it doesn't mean you are not photogenic, it means you haven't been photographed properly. It is my job as a professional photographer to coach you, guide you, pose you and light you in a way to capture the best version of you.

Quick and effective - This session is perfect if you really REALLY need just one look, one image to look amazing on social media, LinkedIn interviews and other small applications. The most popular session - Our classic headshot session. Includes 4 retouched digital files, licensed* use for the images, professional makeup application at the studio, and optional clothing changes.

We live in a culture where physical beauty is both celebrated and criticized. We all want to be on the cover of a magazine looking gorgeous, but we also want to feel as if we should aspire to more than mere physical attractiveness. The fact is that any of us should celebrate our beauty in a way that is unique to us.
