So, think of your headshot as your virtual self: the first thing a client or colleague sees on your bio or social media profile; it's even on every instant message you send. BUT - you keep putting it off, and would rather dangle over a frozen lake in your PJ's than get an updated headshot. I understand, I really do.
Standard retouching on headshots includes improving skin texture, removing blemishes, under-eye darkness and fine wrinkles and lines. We tone down any excessive redness in skin tones, brighten your smile and your eyes. For men, shaven (as appropriate). For women, with hair/makeup already done. During the headshot session, we will periodically review images with you in case we need to adjust posing, lighting or so we can identify what is or is not working.We can take as many breaks as we need to make sure you are comfortable, relaxed, and have your appearance exactly the way you want it.
Washington DC, Maryland, and Virginia host a huge variety of events. Honestly, I can't think of a type or size event I've not photographed. Our client list includes government entities, fortune 500 companies as well as individuals and non-profits. Larger events like conferences, galas, etc. of all sizes, styles, atmospheres, and purposes.

Karen and Eikon Photo were everything I could've wanted, including superb value. She set up in a large-volume space for Covid-safety. She is super-professional but in a very down-to-Earth way, and quickly got on the same wavelength with me re: the kind of photo I wanted. She even did a re-set of her equipment to accommodate my need for a business-y headshot in addition to a more casual one.
Her judgement as to the best picks was just the perfect mix of course-correction and mind-meld. I'm thoroughly pleased and will use these shots until my aging face demands a new shoot -- and at that time, I can only hope Karen will be available. And in case you're wondering, everything I wrote here is not just to show my gratitutde; it's also true!

Karen did a great job and was super nice! She was really patient (I told her I was kind of shy, not very good in front of the camera) and she helped me feel really relaxed. The service was really fast: I got the photos the next morning already retouched! Excellent quality and really professional photographer!

My session with Karen was fantastic. Karen welcomed me and made me feel comfortable from the moment we met. She asks about your interest and this translates into a relaxed environment as she takes your pictures. At the end of the session, Karen works with you to select the best pictures and does it without any pressure. I have been spreading the word to my friends to use Eikon Photography. Thank you Karen for an enjoyable experience!

Karen is amazing! We used her photography services for one of our client's corporate holiday parties. Easy to work with, photos turned out fantastic (even with challenging lighting conditions). She caught every moment including the unscripted ones and she had the photos ready online for download in less than 48 hours! Looking forward to working with Karen again and highly recommend her.

Karen is the ultimate professional. She worked with me to get just the right headshot for my law firm's website. She is patient, careful, and has a great eye for just how you should turn and see the camera. I have worked with her numerous times and every time I have had the same great experience. I highly recommend her

Karen is a fantastic photographer! She has photographed maternity, newborn, and family/first year shots. Everything comes out beautifully. We have gotten to know her over the past three years and are so glad to have made her acquaintance. She is the perfect balance of an efficient yet warm professional. We highly recommend Eikon Photography!

Karen was an absolutely amazing photographer. I'm the Director of Content at Chubbies Shorts, so naturally we had a very non-traditional photoshoot. Karen was the perfect photographer for the job. She interacted incredibly well with the models and brought out their best. She was open to crazy ideas and made sure everyone had fun. We got studio shots and outdoor shots and she was equally adept, professional, and talented in both settings. We would absolutely work with Karen again, in fact, I'm looking forward to high! Highly recommend Karen to anyone looking for an amazing photographer.

My association used Karen Sayre of Eikon Photography to take photos at our annual meeting. We were delighted with her work. She was professional, efficient, had wonderful suggestions, put everyone at ease, and promptly delivered high quality work. I would recommend using Eikon Photography for any and all occasions.

We hired Karen Sayre of Eikon Photography to photograph our wedding and to photograph 3 separate sessions of our new born baby. The three sessions were new born photographs, 6 month old photographs, and maternity photographs during pregnancy. The overall experience was awful. Starting with the wedding event, Karen was late. When we recieved the photos, they were not edited at all.
The next series of events were even worse, the maternity photographs and new born photographs were LOST. We did not find this out until months after the fact and Karen was only willing to offer more photo sessions free of charge in place of the photographs we already took. Obviously, with the experiences we already had been through, we opted not to have any more photo sessions with Karen.
