Ten years photographing Boston teams. See who we work with

Boston Headshot Photographers

Headshots your whole team will actually like.

We come to your Boston office and bring a monitor, so everyone sees their photos as we shoot. We give plenty of posing direction, and people tell us we make them feel comfortable in front of a camera. Retouched files back within 24 to 48 hours.

The Brightside team will reply within 24 hours with a quote.

Why teams book us

Five minutes a person

A team of fifty gets through in a single day. We work around your calendar so nobody loses half their morning to it.

Everyone sees their photo on set

We tether to a monitor so each person reviews their own frames and picks their favorite on the spot. No anxious waiting, no email chains afterward.

Back in 24 to 48 hours

Retouched, web and print sized, named to your roster and dropped straight into a gallery your team can download from.

We come to your Boston office

Three ways this usually works

Your whole team, on-site

The most common ask. We set up in your office and photograph anywhere from eight people to several hundred, across one location or many. Everyone ends up looking like they work at the same company.

  • Matched lighting and background across the team
  • Rolling schedule so nobody waits
  • New hires added later in a short return visit

One person, done properly

Executives, founders, attorneys, agents, and anyone who needs a portrait that has to carry real weight. Your office, our location, or somewhere that means something to your work.

  • Time to actually get a good one
  • Wardrobe and posing guidance beforehand
  • Several final selects, not just one

A headshot booth at your event

A staffed station at your conference or annual meeting. Attendees walk up, sit down, and leave with a portrait. It is consistently the most-visited thing on the floor.

  • Same-day delivery to attendees
  • Branded backdrop options
  • Sponsor logo placement available

Environmental portraits

Not every portrait needs a backdrop. When the room says something about the work, we photograph people where they actually do it: the lab, the kitchen, the floor, the city they built a business in.

Questions we get a lot

How long do Boston headshots take per person?

About five minutes each once we are set up, so a team of fifty gets through in a single day. We build a rolling schedule against your calendar so people step out, get photographed, and get back to work.

Do you come to our office?

Yes, that is how most of these happen. We bring lighting, backdrops, and a tethered monitor to your Boston office and set up in whatever space you have, usually a conference room or an open corner. Setup takes about 45 minutes and we pack out clean.

Can people see their photo before we wrap?

Yes, and it is the part everyone remembers. We tether to a monitor on set so each person reviews their own frames and chooses their favorite right there. Nobody leaves worried about what they got.

How fast do we get the photos?

Retouched galleries land in 24 to 48 hours for most sessions. Each image comes sized for web and print and named to your roster, so whoever manages your website is not renaming 60 files.

What should everyone wear?

Solid colors and mid-tones photograph best, so we steer people away from busy patterns that pull attention off their face. We wrote a full guide on it, what to wear for headshots, which is worth sending round before the day.

Can we add hair and makeup?

Yes, and plenty of teams do. We can bring in full glam, lighter touchups, or grooming, whichever suits the day. It makes a real difference in the final images, and it takes the pressure off everyone to get themselves camera-ready before work. Tell us what you have in mind and we will build it into the quote.

Can you photograph our Boston office space too?

Please do. Most clients pair headshots with candid and interior coverage in the same visit, so you walk away with headshots plus a library for your careers page, your About page, and social.

What about new hires after the shoot?

We keep your lighting setup and background on file so returning shots match the originals. Most clients book a short return visit once or twice a year to catch everyone who has joined.

Do you travel to more than one office?

Happily. Tell us how many locations and over what stretch of time and we will put together a schedule and a quote that covers all of them.

How much does it cost?

It depends on headcount, locations, and how much beyond headshots you want from the day, so we quote every project individually rather than posting a number that would be wrong for most people. Fill in the form and you will have detailed pricing within 24 hours.
