Professional Headshot Photographer Steve Glass
Professional Atlanta Headshot Photography
Thanks for visiting. I’m Steve Glass, and I’ve been a professional photographer in Atlanta for over 17 years. While I handle a variety of editorial assignments, 90% of my work is dedicated to corporate headshots—specifically for corporate professionals, actors, and C-Suite executives. I service all of Metro Atlanta. My home studio is based in Lawrenceville, where Lawrenceville, Duluth, and Suwanee come together. Very near I-85 and the Old Peachtree or Sugarloaf Parkway exit on I85 is.
My Style and Services Whether you need a classic studio backdrop, an environmental office background, or an outdoor look, I tailor each session to your needs. In addition to traditional headshots, I specialize in "staged candids" and editorial portraits, providing high-quality photographic collateral for company websites and marketing materials.
Location Options I offer flexibility to fit your schedule:
My Home Studio: Located in Gwinnett County, is conveniently near I-85 and the Old Peachtree Road exit.
On-Location: I can bring the full studio experience to your office or conference location. I just need a small amount of open space, and I handle all the technical setup to minimize any admin work on your end.
Pricing and Packages
Studio Sessions: For headshot sessions at my Gwinnett studio, the rate is $195. This includes the full session, a downloadable gallery of all "keeper" images, and your favorite shot expertly retouched. You can purchase additional retouches.
Corporate & Group Rates: For on-location office visits, pricing is based on the number of people and your specific retouching needs. I also offer a la carte retouching options for C-Suite executives and public-facing staff.

All Great Headshots Have One Thing In Common
An unflinching gaze into the camera. If you are able to look into the lens with warmth and confidence, other considerations tend to fall away. You are in fact meeting someone’s gaze. A future customer, an employer, a casting director, or maybe even a future partner or spouse. You want a subtle confidence and kindness that creates approachability.

The Headshot Process
Capturing Your Headshot
A Collaborative, Results-Driven Process
Whether you visit my studio or I come to you for location headshots, I shoot with my camera tethered to a high-resolution screen. This allows us to review your images together in real-time.
During our session:
Expert Coaching: I provide hands-on coaching for expression and posture to ensure you look confident and approachable.
Real-Time Review: We make immediate observations and adjustments to improve the shots as we go.
Selection & Culling: We continue until we’re confident we have several "solid takes." We’ll review the gallery together and immediately eliminate any shots that don't meet our standards.
Studio Sessions: Focus on Perfection
In my Gwinnett studio, I do not limit the number of takes. I find the average person requires 50 to 100 takes to land those perfect few choices. These sessions typically last 20 to 40 minutes, but we have up to one hour, giving us the luxury of time to experiment and refine your look.
On-Location & Atlanta Corporate Headshots
When I provide location headshots at your office or event, I understand that time is your most valuable asset. Often, I am brought into an Atlanta location where subjects are balancing meetings, training, or conferences.
Efficiency: I am accustomed to working quickly. While I may only have 5 minutes with a subject during a busy workday, I excel at capturing professional expressions under tight deadlines.
Event Strategy: Conferences are the perfect occasion to refresh your team's professional imagery. If you are hiring me for a large-scale event, we can discuss a specific strategy to maximize throughput without sacrificing quality.
A Stress-Free Selection Process
Choosing your perfect Atlanta headshot shouldn't feel rushed. While we can certainly review images during our session, I find that most clients prefer a more relaxed approach.
To ensure you are 100% confident in your choice, I provide a private, high-resolution online proofing gallery. This allows you to review your images at your own pace, in the comfort of your home or office, without the pressure of a photographer waiting for a decision.
How to Select Your Headshots for Retouching:
Review & Grade: Use the intuitive gallery interface to "star" or grade your favorite takes, helping you easily filter down to your top contenders.
Submit for Retouching: Once you have made your final headshot selections, simply click the yellow "Submit" button in the upper right corner of the screen.
Automatic Notification: My system will immediately notify me of your choices so I can begin the expert retouching process.
This streamlined workflow ensures your final professional portraits are exactly what you envisioned, delivered with the highest quality retouching standards in the Atlanta area.
Expert High Quality Retouching for Your Atlanta Corporate Headshots
I personally handle every aspect of the editing process. I believe that high quality retouching is an essential part of a professional Atlanta corporate headshot, and I am committed to staying at the forefront of the industry’s latest techniques.
A Modern, Professional Approach
The world of digital editing is constantly evolving. As Photoshop introduces new AI-driven algorithms and advanced workflows, I make it a priority to invest in high-level education. While many rely on basic tutorials, I sharpen my skills through professional platforms like ProEdu and CreativeLive. This ensures that your corporate headshots look modern, natural, and polished—never "over-processed."
The "In-Camera" Philosophy
While I offer high quality retouching, the best results start with a great capture. We strive to get as much right "in-camera" as possible. Details like grooming, shaving, and clothing fit are vital. When we start with a strong foundation, the retouching process acts as the perfect finishing touch rather than a "fix-all."
What is Included in Your Retouching?
My goal is to present the best version of you. For most professionals, a few expert adjustments make a significant difference in the final image. My standard process includes:
Blemish & Stray Hair Removal: Cleaning up temporary distractions.
Lighting & Color Balance: Evening out skin tones and enhancing local contrast.
Environmental Adjustments: Perfecting the background and lighting for office-based portraits.
Clothing & Detail Refinement: Fixing minor wardrobe issues or distracting wrinkles.
Subtle Enhancements: Managing facial contouring or thinning where appropriate to ensure a flattering, professional result.
By handling the editing myself, I can offer some of the most competitive rates for high quality retouching in the Atlanta area without sacrificing the premium look your brand deserves.
Fast & Professional Delivery of Your Atlanta Corporate Headshots
Once the retouching process is complete, I ensure that receiving your final images is as seamless as the session itself. I provide a comprehensive digital package designed to meet all your professional branding needs.
Your Atlanta corporate headshots are delivered via a secure Dropbox link or directly to your email, ensuring you have instant access to your files from any device. To make sure you’re ready for any platform, I provide your images in three specific formats:
High-Resolution Print Files: Perfect for business cards, brochures, billboards, or any physical marketing materials.
Web-Ready Resolutions: Optimized for fast loading on company websites, "About Us" pages, and digital press releases.
LinkedIn-Optimized Crop: A specifically formatted version designed to fit the circular profile requirements of LinkedIn, ensuring you look your best on the world's largest professional network.
Whether you need a single portrait for your personal brand or a full team gallery of corporate headshots, I provide the high-quality files you need to represent your business with confidence in the Atlanta market.
