I don’t normally write reviews, however felt my experience with the art of headshots was so fantastic I couldn’t not share it. I had zero insight into headshot photography, and so when I was informed I needed to have a headshot for an application, I didn’t have a clue where to even start looking. Luckily my hairdresser recommended the art of headshots to me, and told me I wouldn’t be disappointed. What an understatement!
Anyone who comes across this review- if you want a headshot done for whatever reason, this is where it’s at. And trust me on this. Carlos uses a technique I have never come across in photography before, and explores areas/interests within your life that truly do come out in the images he captures during the photography session.
This session is not your typical stand in front of a camera, smile, pose, okay we are done. It is an experience and it amazed me how my photos truly altered from the first initial shots to the finals photos taken towards the end of the session.
When Carlos told me first hand he guarantees his work, and would redo the session if I was not happy with the outcome I couldn’t believe it. However after receiving the images – it all made sense. I was so surprised/excited/and truly thrilled with the outcome.
Becky- who is the photography editor is absolutely superb! She sends you the album of photos, and goes through with you which photos you want editing and any specifications regarding the editing. I had a very specific criteria and she was phenomenal in making everything come together and the turn around time on the photos was incredibly quick with such an amazing result.
I cannot recommend the art of headshots enough

An esteemed medical residency doctor who will do great things for people and our community, I am equally honoured to have had the opportunity and Katie’s presence in front of my camera.
Last week our Art of Headshots Toronto photographer produced portrait for a brain surgeon in her 2nd year of a medical residency program. Neurosurgery is the second most competitive medical residency program to get into in Canada. Helping doctors and medical residents whom are saving lives as a profession is an honour and we take the responsibility seriously by producing a vivid portrait that illustrates the best of his or her energy.
Also in Vancouver we had another resident applicant whom had his sister make the initial call to set up the appointment, and came with their parents to support him just before our session. His entire family had participated in one way or another during the shoot, which made me wonder about other resident students and the importance of family support. Are others as lucky as this man? One Father told me that he would never be able to afford the decade of advanced education for his son without working over time. In today’s world its not enough to be talented, intelligent and hard working – our medical professionals need their family’s support.
