Notes, recent work, and ideas from Natural Studio, a Brooklyn-based photography studio creating natural, contemporary portraits and headshots for professionals, creatives, and businesses throughout New York City.

Onsite Headshots for Conferences and Company Events in NYC

A conference or company event is one of the best times to get headshots done. Your whole team is in one place, often along with clients and partners, and a headshot station gives people something useful to take home. It also brings traffic to your booth: attendees line up for a free professional headshot, and you get a few minutes of real conversation with each one.

At Natural Studio, we set up a full portable studio wherever the event is, with lighting and a backdrop. We’ve run headshot stations for Nuix over three days at the Javits Center, photographed 60 people over two days for Charcoalblue at St. Ann’s Warehouse in Brooklyn, and shot onsite for teams at Amazon, along with many other company events around the city. Each session takes just a few minutes, so we can move through a steady line without anyone feeling rushed. Our style is relaxed and conversational, which matters in a busy event setting. People who’d normally freeze up in front of a camera loosen up quickly, and the photos come out looking natural, not like a stiff corporate portrait.

After the event, everyone gets their images quickly and picks their favorite, and we deliver retouched finals within a week. Whether it’s a one-day company offsite or a multi-day trade show, we can scale the setup to fit. To bring a headshot station to your next event, reach out through the contact form on our homepage with the event dates, location, and expected headcount.

Team Headshots in NYC

Your team page is often the second thing a potential client or new hire looks at, right after your homepage. When everyone’s headshot was taken somewhere different, in different light, the page reads like a collection of strangers. Good team headshots do the opposite. They make a group of individuals look like one company, while still letting each person look like themselves.

That last part is where we’re different. A lot of corporate headshots look stiff: forced smiles, rigid poses, people who clearly wanted to be anywhere else. At Natural Studio, our sessions are relaxed and conversational, so people loosen up and the photos look like them on a good day. The result is warm, natural, and approachable, which is how most teams actually want to come across. We’ve been shooting team headshots in NYC since 2019, for companies ranging from six-person startups to firms of 40 or more.

We can bring a portable studio to your office, so each person only steps away for about 10 to 15 minutes, or your team can come to us at our studio in Gowanus, Brooklyn. We keep the lighting, background, and framing consistent for everyone, so the whole set looks right together, and new hires can be shot to match later. The day after the shoot, everyone gets all of their images and picks their own favorite, and retouched finals arrive within a week. To book, reach out through the contact form on our homepage with your headcount and a few dates that work.

Headshots for Designers, Architects & Creative Professionals in NYC

People in creative fields usually come to us with the same request: they want a headshot that looks professional, but without feeling corporate. Designers, architects, art directors and agency teams spend their working lives thinking about how things look, and a stiff, generic portrait doesn’t fit them or the work they do. A good creative headshot should feel considered and contemporary, and it should still look like you on a good day.

At our Brooklyn studio we keep sessions relaxed and unhurried, because that’s where people stop posing and start looking like themselves. We welcome your own clothes and personal style, and we light each person to feel natural rather than overproduced. After the shoot you see every image and choose your favorites, and we retouch your selects with a light hand. We photograph individuals and teams, from freelance designers updating their portfolio sites to studios and agencies that want a cohesive set for their about page.

To inquire about scheduling a session, please get in touch via our contact form on our homepage, or email directly at info@naturalstudionyc.com.

Headshots for Therapists in NYC

Over the past few years, a lot of therapists have come to Natural Studio for headshots. Your photo is often the first thing a potential client sees, on Psychology Today, your practice’s website, or a referral directory. Someone is scrolling, trying to decide who they’d feel comfortable talking to. The photo doesn’t need to look corporate or overly polished. It needs to feel like you: warm, calm and approachable, and still professional. That’s the kind of work we do best.

Sessions take place at our studio in Brooklyn (or at your office if preferred) and are relaxed, with no stiff posing. You’ll see every image from the session and choose your favorites. We also photograph group practices, so if your whole team needs updated headshots, we can do that too. To inquire about scheduling a session, please get in touch via our contact form on our homepage, or email directly at info@naturalstudionyc.com.

Natural Studio is a Brooklyn-based photography studio creating portraits and headshots for individuals, professionals, creatives, companies, and teams throughout New York City.

Our photography is known for a natural, contemporary style built around beautiful light, clean compositions, and a relaxed approach to photographing people.

We work with clients across a wide range of industries, including art, design, technology, advertising, marketing, financial services, real estate, healthcare, entertainment, and more.


Headshots & Portraits for Teams and Companies

In addition to individual portrait and headshot sessions, we regularly photograph teams and entire companies, both at our Brooklyn studio and on location at offices throughout New York City.

For company headshots, our goal is to create a consistent set of professional images without making everyone look overly posed or corporate. The photographs can feel polished and cohesive while still being fresh, contemporary, and natural.

Depending on the project, we can photograph individual headshots, portraits of colleagues together, group photographs, or a combination of each.

A Relaxed, Collaborative Approach

Every project starts with understanding how the photographs will be used and what the client wants them to communicate.

During the shoot, we keep the process relaxed and collaborative, offering direction while allowing room for people to look and feel like themselves. We share images as we work so we can make adjustments along the way and ensure we're creating photographs everyone feels good about.

Whether we're photographing one person or an entire team, our approach remains the same: simple, thoughtful photography that feels authentic and current.

Natural Studio offers portrait and headshot photography at our private Brooklyn studio near Park Slope and on location throughout Brooklyn, Manhattan, and the greater NYC area.

Where To Go For Headshots in NYC

If you’re looking for professional headshots in New York City, one of the first decisions is where you want to be photographed. A studio, office, home, or outdoor location can each create a different feeling.

At Natural Studio, we photograph headshots at our private Brooklyn studio near Park Slope as well as on location throughout Brooklyn, Manhattan, and the greater NYC area.


Studio Headshots in Brooklyn

Our Brooklyn photography studio is ideal for simple, clean portraits and professional headshots. The focus is on the person rather than an elaborate background, using beautiful light and straightforward compositions to create photographs that feel polished but relaxed.

Studio sessions work particularly well for professional headshots, LinkedIn photos, company websites, personal branding, actor headshots, press and publicity, and other situations where you need a versatile portrait that can be used in different places.


On-Location Headshots in NYC

For clients who want something with more of a sense of place, we also photograph outdoors and at offices, homes, and other locations throughout New York City.

An environmental portrait can incorporate architecture, natural light, an office setting, or the energy of the city while still keeping the photograph focused on you.

For companies and teams, we can also bring the shoot directly to your workplace, making it possible to photograph multiple people with a consistent look without everyone having to travel to a studio.


Natural, Professional Headshots

Wherever we shoot, our approach is relaxed and collaborative. We provide direction throughout the session and share images as we go, giving you the opportunity to see what we're creating and make adjustments along the way.

Our goal isn't to make everyone look the same. We want to create professional photographs that feel contemporary, natural, and genuinely like the person being photographed.

Natural Studio works with professionals, creatives, actors, entrepreneurs, executives, and businesses throughout New York City.

NYC Portraits & Headshots — In Studio and On Location

At Natural Studio, we photograph portraits and headshots both at our Brooklyn studio and on location throughout New York City.

Our private studio near Park Slope is a great option for clean, simple headshots and portraits where the focus stays on the person. We also regularly travel to client offices, homes, outdoor locations, and other spaces throughout Brooklyn, Manhattan, and the greater NYC area.


On-Location Portraits in NYC

Shooting on location can give portraits a different feeling by incorporating the character of a home, workplace, neighborhood, or other environment.

The photograph below is from a recent shoot at a home in the West Village. We loved the color palette, artwork, and natural character of the space and used those elements to create a series of contemporary portraits that felt connected to the environment.

For location shoots, we can bring professional lighting and equipment with us, often combining our lighting with the existing natural and ambient light of the space.


A Natural, Relaxed Approach

Whether we're working in the studio or on location, our approach is much the same. We want people to feel comfortable and able to be themselves in front of the camera.

We offer direction throughout the shoot while keeping the process relaxed and collaborative. Our photography is built around beautiful light, clean compositions, and creating portraits that feel natural, contemporary, and genuine.

Natural Studio works with professionals, creatives, entrepreneurs, actors, artists, designers, executives, and companies throughout New York City.

Natural Studio — Portraits & Headshots in NY

Natural Studio is a Brooklyn-based photography studio creating natural, contemporary portraits and headshots both in our studio and on location throughout New York City.

Beautiful light has always been at the center of our photography. We love light that feels soft, fresh, and natural, creating flattering portraits without making the photographs feel overly produced.


Beautiful Light, Wherever We Shoot

The images above are a few examples of our portrait and headshot work and the different ways we use light.

At our Brooklyn studio, we can carefully shape the light to create clean, simple portraits with a natural feel. When working on location at an office, home, or elsewhere in NYC, we can combine our own lighting with the existing light and character of the space.

The goal isn't for you to notice the lighting. It's for the finished photograph to feel effortless.


Creating a Relaxed Environment

Great light is only part of making a great portrait. How someone feels in front of the camera matters just as much.

We keep our sessions relaxed and collaborative, providing direction without making the experience feel overly posed. We share images throughout the shoot so you can see what we're creating together and make adjustments as we go.

We also pay close attention to the small details—composition, background, clothing, expression, posture, and everything else within the frame. Together, those details can make the difference between a standard headshot and a portrait that feels considered and personal.

Natural Studio works with professionals, creatives, entrepreneurs, actors, designers, executives, and businesses throughout New York City.

If you're looking for natural, professional portraits or headshots in Brooklyn, Manhattan, or the greater NYC area, we'd love to work with you. Please feel free to get in touch through our homepage.

Outdoor Portraits & Headshots in NYC — Manhattan & Brooklyn

While many of our portrait and headshot sessions take place at our private Brooklyn studio, we also love photographing people outdoors and on location throughout New York City.

Shooting outside offers a different feeling from the studio. Natural light, architecture, streets, parks, and the changing seasons can all become subtle elements of the photographs while still allowing us to maintain the clean, natural aesthetic that defines our work.

We approach outdoor portraits much as we do our studio work—looking for beautiful light, simple compositions, and relaxed moments that feel authentic to the person being photographed. The surroundings add context and atmosphere without needing to overwhelm the portrait.

Over the years, we've photographed people throughout Manhattan and Brooklyn in a variety of environments and at different times of the year. Depending on what you're looking for, a session can take place entirely outdoors, entirely in the studio, or incorporate a combination of both.

Outdoor portraits can work particularly well for personal branding, professional headshots, creative portraits, social media, company websites, press and publicity, and anyone looking for imagery with a little more sense of place and personality.

Below are a few examples of outdoor portraits and headshots we've photographed around New York City.

You can read more about our clients' experiences on Google and on the Testimonials page of our website.

If you're looking for an outdoor portrait or headshot photographer in NYC, please feel free to get in touch through our Contact page. We'd love to hear about what you have in mind.

Children's Portrait Photography - Brooklyn, Manhattan, Westchester County New York

Photographing children is very different from photographing adults—and that's part of what we love about it. Kids tend to live naturally in the moment, which creates opportunities for photographs that feel spontaneous, expressive, and genuinely their own.

At Natural Studio, our approach to children's photography is relaxed and simple. Rather than trying to overly pose or direct every moment, we create an environment where kids can be themselves while we pay close attention to light, composition, expression, and the small unexpected moments that happen along the way.

The result is a mix of classic portraits and more candid images that capture some of the energy and personality of childhood. We want the photographs to feel beautiful and timeless, but also real.

Children's portrait sessions can take place at our private Brooklyn studio, outdoors, at home, or at another location throughout New York City and Westchester County. Depending on the family and the type of photographs you're looking for, we can also combine more traditional portraits with relaxed, natural images of children playing and interacting.

Below is a selection of photographs from a children's portrait session at our Brooklyn studio.

You can explore more of our family and children's photography on our website and read about our clients' experiences on Google and our Testimonials page.

If you're looking for a children's or family photographer in Brooklyn, Manhattan, or Westchester County, please feel free to get in touch through our Contact page. We'd love to hear what you have in mind.

NYC Portraits & Headshots: Color vs. Black & White

It's one of the oldest questions in photography: color or black & white?

There isn't a single right answer. Color can feel immediate and natural because it's how we experience the world. It can bring subtle details into a portrait—the color of someone's eyes, clothing, skin tone, or the environment surrounding them.

Black & white does something different. By removing color, an image can become simpler and more graphic. Light, expression, shape, and composition come forward, sometimes giving a portrait a quality that feels both classic and contemporary.

When it comes to professional portraits and headshots, we generally recommend color as the starting point. It's versatile, current, and works naturally across company websites, LinkedIn, personal branding, press, social media, and other professional uses.

But there are times when black & white is exactly right.

A strong black & white portrait can feel quieter, more expressive, or more timeless. It can also simplify an image and draw more attention to the person rather than the colors surrounding them.

Ultimately, we don't think there need to be strict rules about it. Color versus black & white is simply one of the many creative decisions that goes into making a photograph—along with lighting, composition, wardrobe, background, expression, and retouching.

At Natural Studio, our goal is always to make photographs that feel natural and authentic while still paying close attention to the visual details that make an image beautiful. Sometimes that means color. Sometimes it means black & white. And often, we like both.

Below are examples of our portrait and headshot photography in color and black & white.

You can see more of our work in our portfolio and on Instagram and LinkedIn.

Our private photography studio is located in Brooklyn near Park Slope, Gowanus, Red Hook, Sunset Park, Carroll Gardens, Boerum Hill, and Prospect Heights. We also photograph people on location throughout Manhattan, Brooklyn, and the greater New York City area.

Case Study: Model Portfolio Headshots & Digitals — Alexandra, NYC

Here at Natural Studio, another area we often work in is shooting portfolio images, headshots, and digitals for models. For these types of shoots, we either work with the model’s agency or just directly with the model. The models we work with cover a broad range from totally brand new to modeling to those who have been in the business for several decades. There is a fun creative opportunity regardless of the subject’s experience level. We use our own knowledge, skills, and experience to work with the talent to create classic, timeless photographs. Our work is known for its quality, natural looking light, and real personal connection as opposed to the overdone, over processed, artificial light type of look. There is usually either no makeup or just a light foundation as we want the talent to look great but we also want to show what they actually look like. We avoid elaborate poses and other distractions and instead focus on what we love which is soft amazing light and a really natural, fresh kind of vibe that aims to capture the unique authentic character of the individual.

Below is a series of photographs we recently shot of Alexandra at our Brooklyn, New York photographer studio. Click here to see more of our work.

New Work: Portraits for Business & Personal Branding

We recently had the pleasure of working with Studio PPARK, a full-service design practice focused primarily on residential construction and renovation.

For the shoot, we traveled to their design studio in Irvington, New York, overlooking the Hudson River in Westchester County. The goal was to create a mix of professional headshots and environmental portraits that felt natural and reflected both the people and the character of their workspace.

The studio had beautiful natural window light, which we complemented with our own lighting to create a consistent, polished look while maintaining the natural feeling of the space.

Photographing people in their own working environment offers possibilities that are different from a traditional studio session. In addition to clean headshots, the surrounding architecture, objects, and natural light can become part of the photographs, adding context and a stronger sense of place.

For businesses and personal branding, this combination can be particularly useful. A single shoot can create a range of imagery for company websites, team pages, LinkedIn profiles, press and publicity, social media, and other marketing materials.

While many of our sessions take place at our private Brooklyn studio, we regularly photograph individuals and teams on location at offices, homes, and other spaces throughout New York City and the surrounding area, including Westchester County.

You can read more about our clients' experiences on Google and our Testimonials page.
