Linda's attention to detail is truly impressive, every shot is so beautifully composed. While we have worked together on many photoshoots for clients-She just recently did a personal photoshoot and I could not be happier. Amazing!

I've seen Linda in action on several occasions for client events and she is always so professional with an amazing eye. Most recently, I watched her on a portrait photo shoot of someone who is typically behind the scenes instead of the focus. I was impressed by the variety of ways she did "hand holding" to put the client at ease and get an amazing end product. She is top tier! More...

I knew from our first conversation that Linda Barrett was the right photographer for me. Her studio was inviting, she made me feel completely comfortable, and her ability to capture my true essence in the photos is incredible. I loved the variety of images she shared with me after our hour-long session, and her editing was flawless. I'm excited to work with her again! 5-stars! More...

My branding session with Linda was so easy. I had been dreading having photography done, and Linda created such an uplifting, calm environment I was able to relax and show up as myself. And Linda captured that! It was truly a healing experience having my pictures taken. She deftly quieted all the voices of self-judgement and self-consciousness in my head and let me shine. More...

Not enough good things to say about Linda. Professional, passionate, and just down right excellent. She takes the time to understand what you want out of your session, but then adds that touch that makes it better than you had even envisioned. Wouldn't trust anyone else to capture my memories. Thank you! More...

What’s the secret to taking a great photograph?
Developing and honest rapport with a sense of trust, along with learning what I can about the clients, their image needs and uses, all allow me the best outcomes for the final images.
What questions might you ask a client when starting a new project?
I love to learn about what the client's business is before taking their photos. Do they need to reveal a sense of confidence, a friendly profile or maybe even a dramatic gritty final image. I want you to get the image that will really tell the best story for you and your needs. Even if it's a family, I like to learn the dynamics...who gets the photo in the end? Is it for mom, dad, grandma, or for their Holiday card. These answers all make a difference in how I strive to get the right shot.
What do you love most about your job?
Meeting new people & seeing them in ways they might never feel seen...makes being a photographer feel very rewarding. Plus, it can be incredibly empowering for clients to see themselves in strong photos. I love what I do!
What inspired you to start your own business?
After years of helping other companies build and brand themselves, I decided to leave my prior career of 11 years and start my own business. Coming from a family of entrepreneurs', it felt like a completely natural - even if scary - starting my own business.
Why should our clients choose you?
Many of my clients say that what they loved most about working with me, time and again, is that I make them feel at ease and love that I provide them with direction and posing suggestions to make them look their very best. Many say the experience in the studio has been a grounding life changing experience...that they really felt "seen". This is my greatest compliment!
Headshots
If you are looking for a true professional with a light filled or strobe ready studio, then you've come to the right place. I have a "Starting-out" headshot rate of $250 for one image/one outfit/one backdrop. ideal for those needing the "one quick shot in studio." Or a Corporate/Executive/Real Estate shoot at $390 for 3 outfits/one backdrop and 3 image edits. Looking for a full Branding session...let's talk! I love to deliver a variety of shots either in the studio or on location.
Contemporary Portraiture
Looking to have a more artistic photo session that goes beyond the corporate headshot...with some wardrobe support, champagne and nibbles and hair and makeup in the studio. Well, this is the ideal offering for you. These Contemporary Portrait sessions start at $750. Let's talk!
Great for gifting to the woman or man that has everything.
