Best professional headshots in Chicago

Absolutely the best experience I have ever had getting a headshot. Nick was very professional and organized, has amazing attention to detail and knew his angles and lighting well. His studio is very clean, and convenient parking and he sends you back your pictures very quickly. He sent me mine within 10 minutes of leaving his studio! If I need photography services again, he will definitely be my first stop. Thanks Nick!

Nick was great. He was incredibly efficient. Even with me running a few minutes late, we were done on time AND had a great session that yielded a lot of high quality photos. I also am incredibly critical of my own image, but wasn't hard pressed to find a photo I was happy to use. I will be referring folks to them, as well as using them, again.

My photography session at Studio Redleaf went beyond my expectations from my arrival in the garage to the service Nick provided. Nick adjusted my hair and guided me throughout the entire session. I was not rushed and the pace was just right. My pictures came out beautiful as I had tons of great options to select from and the entire file was sent to me right after the session. I am truly amazed and will be back!

Nick was great! I was very nervous not knowing what to expect and he walked me through the process. He even acted as a stylist! I would recommend Studio Redleaf and would definitely use them again! Thanks for a great experience!

Great experience. I was a bit apprehensive about getting these done in the middle of the work day, esp. since I don't think I've ever had "dedicated" professional headshots done before. Nick was extremely efficient and a great communicator, so the process was remarkably quick with great results. A consummate professional who respects your time. The photos were remarkable and delivered in less than an hour from the time of the session. Would definitely recommend, and will return the next time the need arises for professional photos.

Miguel was fantastic - he promptly responded to our questions, was prepared and on time for the photo shoot, made everyone fell really comfortable, reasonable pricing and quickly delivered 200+ photos to my email. We hired him to take college graduation photos for my son and his friends. Miguel made this experience fun and enjoyable for them. He helped them with posing and did a great job at capturing everyone's natural smiles. Everyone loved the photos! We will be recommending him to future graduates!

Miguel is truly a master at what he does! We booked an outdoor family photoshoot with him, and it exceeded all of my expectations. Not only was he friendly, creative, and helped guide us in posing, but he made us feel so comfortable throughout the entire shoot. He was patient as well, and made really made this experience so memorable and fun for our little family. I was in tears at how beautiful each shot came out, and how he was able to capture not just our physical selves, but our personalities as well. It was such a wonderful experience and I am overall so impressed with his skills as well as his professionalism. I HIGHLY recommend him to anyone who needs a photoshoot, for professional reasons, family shoots, or anything else. Thanks again, Miguel! :)

My husband, dogs and I have a great experience with Miguel!! I loved being able to book my session online and pick a location near my house for our pictures. He was so patient, especially when our dogs would not pose for the pictures + it was super windy and cold that day. He got some really beautiful shots of our family! He was a little delayed in returning the photos (7 vs the promised 5 days) but he offered us an additional print for the delay. The small delay, and my having to reach out to check on the photos is the only reason for 4 vs. 5 stars. We'd highly recommend him and would love to work with him in the future!

I chose Miguel based on reviews and all his reviews were so on point. Miguel was great to work with. His flexibility, professionalism and his genuine personality are just a few of his qualities. He made the whole process very smooth and met all my requirements that I asked for. We hired him for my shower and I absolutely love the pictures! I've even got friends and family who have already asked for his contact. Miguel is definitely on my list now for my next event or any family pictures I would like to do. Thank you Miguel for your excellent service!

Andrew was absolutely incredible to work with and I am extremely pleased with how my headshots turned out. During the shoot, Andrew made me feel so comfortable, and was so fun to work with. He made the experience of getting my professional headshots taken very enjoyable, as he was making me laugh and hyping me up behind the camera. Andrew is so passionate and talented at what he does, and I would recommend him to anyone looking at getting photos taken in the Chicago area.

Andrew is an absolutely amazing photographer. As someone who is often stiff and nervous when taking pictures he definitely helped me ease into the process and was very kind, patient, and communicative. He will make sure you are happy with the photos and provide ample feedback. He also offers educational discounts which was super helpful being a college student set to graduate very soon and wanting an amazing headshot to get a jumpstart in the professional world. I will be recommending him to all my classmates and future coworkers!

Andrew is an incredible photographer. He was professional, fun, and patient. He took so many great pictures that is was hard for me to pick a favorite! I would recommend Andrew to anyone looking for a professional headshot and would reach out to him and State Street in the future for other photography needs.

I hate photos and pictures of myself! Andrew did a great job at making me feel comfortable and was so good at paying attention to the small details (ie: necklace, collar, hair). Definitely recommend! You won’t be disappointed.

I was in charge of coordinating headshots for over 100 people in our Chicago office. After researching several options for photographers, Andrew was the first to reach out to me to gather information. I am SO thrilled that he did; he makes you feel comfortable and at ease through conversation and funny anecdotes while capturing the true essence of you, through a photo. He guides you, with an experienced eye to capture the true, authentic you and not some fabricated, elevated, airbrushed version of you – making sure that when your client reviews your RFP or presentation deck – the individual they meet in-person, is one in the same. Andrew’s integrity, business acumen, organization, and above all, passion, shines through from your first meeting to the wrap of your in-person photoshoot or event – and all I did was discover him through Google and set up the appointment, he took care of everything else: • Composing emails and sending them out to the staff • Organized calendar so employees could set up their own appointments at their convenience • Communicated DO’s and DON’T’s for photo day • Resolved any issues that weren’t satisfactory to our employees Bottom line…you are in the best hands possible when it comes to your headshot, representation of who you are as an individual and your company’s reputation. Bravo, Bravo, Bravo Andrew Michaels!!!

Loved my mini session I did with Aaron! I felt very comfortable and he was super nice! He's super good at bring out all the sides of you! As a beginning actress the prices for the mini sessions are amazing! I was only sad that I could only afford one at the time, but I will definitely be going back especially because I get complements on mine all the time.

Aaron is the best!! Second time coming to him for actor headshots and he doesn’t disappoint. His professionalism is outstanding, makes you feel comfortable & confident during the shoot, and the pictures come out phenomenal. High quality and he has extremely quick turnaround (I received my images the very next day). You’ll be happy if you choose him as your photographer!

Aaron was amazing!! I got some headshots done with him, and the process was incredibly simple and smooth. He really knows what he's doing with his photos, and it felt so easy to work with him. If you're an actor or someone in need of photos, I highly recommend him. Excellent photographer!

I had a great experience working with Aaron. He recognized I was nervous and made the shoot calm and comfortable. Photos turned out great, and the turnaround time was fast without sacrificing attention to detail. If you need a photo for residency application (ERAS), I can’t think of a better choice.

I needed a portrait done to gift to a relative, but I had no idea what I was looking for. Aaron was so kind and patient on the phone as he took the time to help me figure out exactly what I needed, and make short term arrangements to operate at my convenience (including my price needs). I can’t imagine receiving a better or more personalized service anywhere else. If you want a photographer that is kind and professional, and highly flexible to work around your needs I can’t recommend Aaron enough.
