Connie Hoffman
We were lucky enough to have Charles at our wedding photographer. The pictures were live and amazingly beautiful. Motion and still and we never felt like he was intruding most of the time we didn’t even know he was taking pictures until we saw them and we were very surprised and pleased. I would recommend him for any event that was important enough to never forget. More...

I recently had Charlie do family portraits and children's portraits.
The photo shoot was seamless and fun. I had four children in our group and Charlie kept them engaged and happy.
The finished product was spectacular and way beyond what we expected.
I would highly recommend Charlie to do any photography.

What changes have you made to keep your customers safe from Covid-19?
I have earned a Safe Sets International Certificate for COVID-19 Safety and I am following the advice of the CDC, local government, and industry organizations. Here are the changes I've made to help keep my clients and myself safe in the studio.
Professional Headshots
Our professional headshot photographers understand each image they take is for someone’s job. Our Sarasota, Florida based photography studio offers professional headshots for brands, actors, businesses, models, attorneys, tech CEOs, and more.
Our headshots convey your professionalism. No matter what you do for a living, a stellar headshot helps you stand out. Let us help you showcase your personality.
We strive to give you something better than a profile picture; we help capture who you are. Our headshots help tell your story. Target your ideal audience with images that communicate who you are.
Actors & Models Portfolios
Are you looking to break out into the modeling world or looking to update your portfolio? Trust our professional team at Charles Fara Photography for the perfect portfolio shots. Having experience in the fashion industry has enabled us to better understand what agencies are looking for in their submissions. We work with you to create images that help you book more jobs. We offer sessions in our Sarasota based studio in Sarasota County, or we can meet you on location.
Fashion Photography
At Charles Fara photography we have done it all, from New York Fashion Week to collaborative creative shoots with world-famous designers like Project Runway winner Irina Shabayevaand Honee Persona.
Agencies like photos that show the model’s versatility and their ability to express themselves. They also like to see how well the model can actually tell a story or portray a feeling or emotion in their photos. A beauty shot or clean headshot, a full-length body shot, a swimsuit shot, an editorial shot, a commercial shot, and a smiling shot should all be a part of your portfolio!
Fine Art Photography
We often get asked questions about fine art photography. While it’s hard to sum up in a few words, fine art photography is essentially a photographer’s way to convey ideas, messages, and emotions in a creative outlet. Still, confused? Fine art photography is first and foremost about the artist. Opposed to representational photography, which uses a camera to document what exactly appears in front of the lens, fine art photography captures what the photographer sees. The artist uses the camera as an art tool, just as a painter uses a brush.
When you have your portrait created with us, it's more than just a photo session; it's an experience you will want to share with your friends and loved ones and remember for years to come! We start with a consultation where we discuss wardrobe and styling ideas. On the big day, you'll meet one of our master hairdressers and makeup artists who will ensure you look your very best! Then after you don your wardrobe the magic begins! We have a very relaxed atmosphere in our studio and our goal is to make you as comfortable as possible and create an image that you will cherish and display proudly in your home.
Our fine art portraits are created in such a way as to display the realism of a photograph with rich artistic enhancements resulting in a beautiful work of art that is available in every size. It is finished with a canvas texture, mounted to artist masonite for durability and beauty, and sealed with a protective lacquer. Our portraits are rated for 100 years before any fading takes place. They are then mounted in an exquisite frame of your choice. We do not offer digital images in our fine art package.
