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.

What Our Clients Say About Our NYC Portraits & Headshots

One of the things we appreciate most is hearing from clients after their shoots. At Natural Studio, we want the experience of being photographed to feel relaxed, collaborative, and enjoyable—and, most importantly, we want people to come away with photographs that genuinely feel like them.

Here’s what some of our portrait and headshot clients have said about working with us:

Natural Studio was understanding, sensitive, and genuinely interested in finding out what I needed and how I wanted my photos to look. They are professional, responsible, and easy going as well as very passionate about photography. Their work stood out as being fresh and real instead of all the other plain identical works of other studios I had found before. After I began using the new photos, I definitely started getting more job offers as the pictures gave clients a better perspective of my personality. It was a wonderful experience and the pictures are great!
— Kristina Shakhpazian, Model & Actress
It was a pleasure to work with Natural Studio! They were really patient and thorough, allowing me to try out several combinations of outfits, accessories, and locations during our outdoor shoot. The turnaround in terms of getting the images back for selection and getting the final, edited images was really quick, allowing me to start using them immediately. What’s more, the photos feel natural and really captured my personality.
— Annie N., Research Analyst
What a delight! I am SO HAPPY I shot with Brad. I got all the looks I wanted and he totally nailed the natural but heightened look. I’m thrilled with how they turned out. The studio was easy to get to, Brad was quick to respond to my emails, everything felt flexible and relaxed. 10/10 would recommend!
— Abby Pierce, Actor, NYC
Really great experience getting headshots. I felt 100% comfortable and got so many great shots to choose from. Brad did an amazing job with the lighting and the results far exceeded my expectations. I think the best part of this experience is that I wound up with headshots that feel more real and reflect who I feel I am… more so than the kind of headshots one might typically expect. Highly recommended.
— Peter Noah, Product Designer, NYC
Natural Studio NYC was extremely proficient at creating the perfect professional headshots, even for the less photogenic like me. Brad put me at ease, flexibly adapted to different ideas and sent them back to me the same day. Quotes allow you to choose the number of pictures that would suit you and leaves you with the ones you love for years to come. Sent his details to colleagues and friends afterwards for this very reason!
— Pimpernel Maria Preston
I could not have had a better experience with Natural Studio! I needed headshots for upcoming press, and Brad went above and beyond to ensure that i came away with what I needed. The shoot day was a pleasure — and Brad’s photography expertise was evident with every shot. Speedy delivery of the proofs the next morning was also much appreciated. All in all, I am thrilled with my headshots and look forward to working with Natural Studio again as soon as possible!
— Katherine Neukomm
I did a photoshoot with Brad, and after over 20 years in the industry and working as a model, I can tell you he is amazing. He understands your face and creates the best light.
— Charlotte Bonstrom-Assaf, Model, NYC

What we especially love about these comments is how often clients mention feeling comfortable, having a relaxed experience, and ending up with photographs that feel natural and true to who they are. That's exactly what we aim for with every shoot.
