Corporate Photography & VideoOne Photographer.
One Standard.
Every Office.
Brand films, campaign video, and headshot programs.
Enterprise-grade production. Editorial-level photography.
Most companies start with headshots: a St. Louis headshot photographer who runs company-wide programs in every city you operate in. Merrill Lynch, KPMG, and WashU Medicine book the same one, and the brand films and campaign video come from the same person. Programs are quoted as production days, not per head.
“Just amazing… Absolutely worth the investment.”

What it solves
One standard across every office,
and one person responsible for it.
Here is what a program run by one St. Louis headshot photographer does for a marketing team, in practice.
Every person, every office, one look.
Ten people or a thousand across several offices, every image shares the same lighting, framing, and finish, because the same person made all of them.
The program has a name attached to it.
Scheduling, travel, setup, and coordination sit with us. One email replaces the dozens a roster of freelancers needs, and there is one person to call when a date moves.
Your team does not run a production.
You approve the plan and the dates. The shot list, the room, the schedule, and delivery are handled without anyone on your side managing them.
The next hire matches the last one.
The setup is documented, so a person photographed next year sits beside the rest of the team without a reshoot. When you need video as well, it comes from the same production.
Serving the St. Louis Metro
A St. Louis headshot photographer trusted across the metro
Henry David is a St. Louis headshot photographer working on location across the metro and on-site at client offices. We photograph corporate teams and executives where they already work, so a 10-person group or a 500-person company gets the same lighting, the same backdrop, and the same quality without anyone leaving the building.
We bring a complete portable studio to you. That means we serve St. Louis County and St. Charles County, including Clayton, Chesterfield, Creve Coeur, Ladue, Kirkwood, Webster Groves, Town and Country, Maryland Heights, St. Charles, and O'Fallon. There is no studio to visit and no street to park on. We set up in your conference room, lobby, or office floor and break down the same day.
When your program spans more than one city, the same photographer travels to each office. That is why a new hire in St. Charles matches a director in Clayton. For multi-location and company-wide programs beyond the metro, we fly in on-site nationwide and internationally.

Your director
I'm Henry. I think about your marketing before I think about the camera.
Whether I'm producing a brand film, building a photography library, or photographing your team, I start with what the work needs to accomplish: fill a hiring class, launch a site, re-introduce a company that has outgrown its old look. The shot list follows from that.
I have spent years on the technical side, so you do not have to. I run lighting, sound, direction, edit, and delivery myself on every engagement, with no subcontractors and no handoffs.
What you are paying for is that I take ownership of the outcome as if it were mine. The reviews further down this page describe what that looks like.

Common Questions
Everything you need to know.
Both, and St. Louis comes first. Henry David is a St. Louis headshot photographer who shoots on location across the metro, including Clayton, Chesterfield, Ladue, Creve Coeur, Kirkwood, Webster Groves, and St. Charles. We go on-site at your offices anywhere in the area and bring a complete portable studio with us, so there is no studio to drive to. When a company has offices in more than one city, the same photographer travels to each one so every headshot matches. For programs outside the metro, we offer fly-in service nationwide and internationally.
Yes. On-site is how most of our St. Louis work happens. We bring a complete portable studio to your office anywhere across the metro, from Clayton and Ladue to Chesterfield and St. Charles, set it up in a conference room or open space, and photograph your whole team in focused sessions. Each person steps in front of professional lighting, gets expression coaching, and picks a favorite before heading back to work. Nothing for your staff to carry, nowhere for them to travel.
Individual executive headshot sessions are $1,200 flat, and personal branding sessions are $1,800 flat, both inclusive of the final retouched images. Team and company work runs through the Corporate Headshot Program, quoted as production days by program size, not per head. Tell us what you are trying to do and you will have a specific estimate within one business day.
We bring a complete portable studio anywhere, domestically and internationally. One photographer, Henry David, travels to every location, so each site gets the same lighting, backdrop, and style. No subcontractors, no drift. We have coordinated multi-city shoots for organizations with offices from New York to Las Vegas to London, and we handle the travel logistics so your team does not have to.
We've photographed organizations with 500+ people in a single engagement. Each person gets a focused five to ten minutes with expression coaching and real-time tethered review. You see your images on a monitor as they are taken and pick your favorite on the spot. That is long enough for several strong frames, short enough to keep your team productive. We handle all scheduling and coordination beforehand, including time-slot sign-ups and day-of logistics.
Proofing galleries go up fast. Final retouched files are formatted for web, print, and social and delivered within five business days. All images come with full commercial usage rights. Rush delivery is available for time-sensitive projects like website launches or annual reports.
We send a detailed preparation guide before every shoot covering wardrobe recommendations, grooming tips, and what to expect during the session. The short version: solid colors photograph best (navy, charcoal, black, jewel tones), and dress as you would for an important client meeting. We also provide on-set direction and expression coaching so everyone feels confident and looks their best, even the camera-shy ones.
Yes. You receive full commercial usage rights for all delivered assets. Use them anywhere: website, social media, print materials, advertising, internal communications, investor presentations, and recruiting. No licensing restrictions, no per-use fees, no expiration dates.
AI headshot generators create approximations from selfies. They cannot capture your real expression, your confidence, or the way you carry yourself. Professional photography uses controlled studio lighting, expression coaching, and real-time tethered review, so you see and approve every shot. More to the point, AI cannot hold a single visual standard across a team of 50, 500, or 5,000 people.
Each person's session takes five to ten minutes. You step in front of professional studio lighting, get expression coaching (we demonstrate positions and you mirror them), and review your images in real time on a tethered monitor. You pick your favorite before you leave. Most people say it is more comfortable and faster than they expected.
Yes. We are based in St. Louis and most of our work is nationwide and international. We have served organizations across the U.S. and abroad, from 10-person teams to Fortune 500 companies with 10,000+ employees. One standard, anywhere in the world.

Still Have Questions? Let's TalkA Word of Honesty
This isn't for everyone.
If you're looking for the cheapest photographer you can find, we're not the right fit.
But first impressions happen before you ever speak. The executive recruiter scrolling LinkedIn decides in three seconds whether you look promotable. The prospect checking your website judges your credibility before anyone picks up the phone. If that is how you see it too, you are in the right place.
If you're serious about how you're perceived, individually or as an organization, we should talk.
Let's scope your next project.
Tell us what you need and we will build the plan. Or just say hello.
