Included in the price is the opportunity to have a professionally taken headshot. Our guest for the morning will be Sean Phillips from Riverwood Photography.

Sean specializes in creating professional headshots for small business owners and corporate executives. The program fee includes a retouched headshot for you to use on your LinkedIn profile and other social media accounts. During the session Sean will create a variety of images for each participant that you can review in an online proofing gallery. You will be able to choose your favorite image which will be individually retouched as required. The goal is to create a great photo that makes a lasting impression and that conveys the friendliness, warmth, and professional trust you bring to your work.
