Putting Personality back into your Ottawa headshots

Do you get nervous in front of a camera? You’re not alone. We feel scrutinized and unsure of what to do with our body, so we want to rush through headshots all while feeling worried that the photos won’t turn out well and trying to hide that worry behind a fake smile. Yikes! No wonder so many people dislike photos of themselves.

At Art of Headshots our photographer’s talent with a camera is obvious. More importantly, their natural empathy and ability to listen help ease your nerves. Once the jitters subside they’re able to make your personality shine.

Invest in your future by getting our professional Ottawa headshots photographer to expertly capture your personality in your headshots.

Ottawa Headshots Experts

eva

Eva Wong

Eva's photography journey started when her father gifted her a film camera to distract her from her then dream of becoming a portrait artist. Eva's parents had big wishes for her to drop into a more traditional career as a doctor, lawyer, engineer, etc. but her joy of photography took her in another direction. After taking classes in university, and being hired as her Uncle's wedding photographer, she had an inkling that photography would be her career one day.

History

Eva's life has taken her across the globe. Born in Fiji, and then raised in Oregon, Eva eventually applied for a scholarship to spend some of her university years studying abroad in China. Here she learned mandarin and also worked for the Canadian Embassy in Beijing. After her time abroad she moved to Canada and worked for Statistics Canada. Eva has the travel bug with dreams of traveling across the globe.

Interests

Eva is a single mother to 3 loving children ages 5-14. She dedicates her personal time making sure her kids have the best physical and emotional upbringing to grow into healthy, well adjusted young adults. Once a month Eva does standup comedy to flex her comedic chops, and she's planning on using her wry sense of humor to write a book about her incredible life's journey. We've barely scratched the surface on Eva's accomplishments, so we think this book is going to fly off the shelves.

Motivation

Along with a supportive business partner, Eva runs a newly renovated studio with 5 photography sets. Her resilience and passion for photography has kept her studio alive despite the interruptions in business due to COVID shutdowns and the severe storm in early 2022 that flooded her studio. Eva will do whatever it takes to keep photography in her life while also financially providing for herself and her kids. Eva's strong, empathetic, and resilient personality makes her a wonderful addition to the Art of Headshots family. Her introverted personality allows her to really listen and observe clients like you to bring out the best of you in your headshots.

Reviews

What our clients have Said

I highly recommend to check this studio out! I recently got my headshot for my personal branding website. Eluvier Acosta: photographer is great, professional and he will advice you to act to your theme. This team leads by Carlos, they are working effectively & comparatively with their kind services to help translate my vision in to the images I love. Second to None in “Art of Headshots”

We hired Art of Headshots to take our headshots and group photos. We are a brand new law firm and wanted these photos for our website. We opted for the branding session which includes a meeting with the photographer prior to the photoshoot to discuss our brand, vision and audience, all of which to inform the style of photos, backgrounds etc. We had a wonderful experience working with our photographer. He was professional, experienced and knowledgeable. We sat down and together created a planned and focused photoshoot that served our marketing purposes well. The photos are beautiful and the backgrounds he suggested turned out perfectly. We really liked his relaxed approach during the session. It helped us relax and look natural and authentic in the photos. Every now and then he asked us to close our eyes and think about the business we are building, the people we will be helping etc. and then open our eyes. He would then capture our expression. It really brought out who we are. It was all in all the best experience I’ve had with business photography. I highly recommend their service and plan on asking them to do more photos for us in the future as the firm grows.

This is my second time working with these guys to get my headshots done. This time round, it was really important to me to showcase my brand and that I am approachable with the start of my new company Level Update. As always, Carlos and his team knocked it out of the park.
