Author Headshots for a Fantasy Adventure Book Cover

Saturday, June 09, 2018 | By: Headshot Photographer - Irene Abdou Photography, LLC

"I wrote a fantasy adventure book, and my publishing agent said I really need an author headshot for the cover, but I'm not comfortable in front of the camera... I like traveling and photographing wildlife, but I'm never usually the subject of the photography!" Craig told me on the phone during his headshot consultation.

 

And so Craig arrived at our Maryland headshot photography studio, and we came up with some very unique author headshots of him.  The clear favorite from both of our perspectives was the first headshot above.  It was just different, and we both felt like it really suited the fantasy adventure author persona.  I can't wait to see Craig's headshot published on the cover of the next edition of his book, and in the meantime, many thanks to Craig for this wonderful testimonial of our headshot services!

 

"I had a great experience with Irene. She made what could have been an awkward experience, for me, very comfortable. It was the first time I had done a headshot and she made it easy. As an author being in front of the camera is not a position I am used to but she was very relaxed and that helped me to relax. Irene was very professional and clearly knew her stuff. She was able to give me ideas about what would work and what looked best. She essentially guided me through the process. Irene was also very accommodating with her schedule. Most importantly, I am very pleased with the result. I would recommend Irene without reservation or hesitation."
