The photogapher for your Professional Portraits in Brussels
Brussels HEADSHOTS
Looking for a photographer to take your professional portraits in Brussels?
I create headshots that boost your confidence and visibility for your LinkedIn profiles, CV or corporate website. Let's create together portraits that capture attention and enhance your credibility.
You are competent, ambitious, and determined to advance in your career, but...
-
Your LinkedIn profile photo is from another era, taken with a phone or at some random event, and it no longer reflects your current position or aspirations.
-
Every time you need to provide a photo, you desperately search through your albums for a "passable" image that doesn’t truly represent your real potential.
-
You hate being in front of a photographer, convinced that you’re not photogenic, and that the experience will only confirm your fears.
- You think professional portraits are a luxury. Until the day a recruiter, a client, or a partner asks you for a photo, and you realize it could make all the difference.
The result? An image that could hold back your opportunities, where it could instead multiply them. You deserve so much better than that.

How can I help you improve your professional image?
QUESTIONS ?
A headshot is a close-up professional portrait that conveys a mix of confidence, credibility, and approachability.
The headshots I offer follow precise guidelines and result from a specific lighting technique and tailored coaching.
A professional portrait, on the other hand, is an image used in a professional setting and may include a wider frame than a headshot.
So, all headshots are professional portraits, but not all professional portraits are headshots.
Absolutely!
In a visually-driven society, a high-quality headshot can significantly enhance your professional image.
Whether you’re job hunting, updating your LinkedIn profile and CV, or strengthening your online presence,
a quality professional portrait grabs attention and sets you apart from the rest.
Booking a headshot session in advance ensures you have a professional portrait ready for all important occasions.
It’s better to plan ahead than to wait until you’re in a rush and urgently need a new portrait.
Schedule your session now to be prepared for any professional opportunity that calls for making a strong first impression and standing out.
Being photogenic doesn’t depend on you but on the expertise of the photographer.
With the right lighting and precise guidance, anyone can reveal their best look.
Through my unique approach, I capture expressive and engaging portraits,
highlighting your best angles while ensuring you feel comfortable.
The price of your session includes full usage rights, allowing you
to freely use your photos for common applications without any restrictions.
I never provide unedited photos, as they wouldn’t reflect the full quality of my work.
Only the images selected by the client are delivered after post-processing.
All other photos are deleted once the client is satisfied with the final images.
As a portrait photographer, I have two studios in Brussels. My main studio for professional portraits is located in Ixelles, near Place Flagey.
I also have a second studio in Schaerbeek, close to the European Quarter and the Schuman Roundabout.
The images are typically delivered within 2 to 3 business days,
in digital format and high resolution.
A studio session for your professional portraits typically lasts between 90 and 120 minutes.
However, we usually achieve excellent results within 30 minutes.
If you prefer a shorter session, it is possible, but the price will remain the same.
Bring a variety of outfits that reflect your professionalism.
Since these are headshots, I recommend bringing 3 to 5 outfit variations (focused on the upper body),
favoring solid colors and avoiding overly distracting patterns.
For makeup, stick to your usual routine without going heavier than normal.
Any minor skin imperfections (redness, blemishes, etc.) can be corrected during post-processing.
During the session, I’ll also provide personalized tips to optimize the results.
Yes! As a headshot photorapher I offer an on-site service for staff and management.
I am available in Brussels and anywhere in Belgium, setting up a mobile studio in your offices, complete with lighting, a backdrop, and a laptop for real-time image viewing. On average, I can photograph 30 to 40 people per day while maintaining the same quality standard as in individual sessions.
