Portland Headshots

Your headshot should do more than check a box,
it should help people instantly connect with you.

We’re skipping the awkward poses, forced smiles, and corporate-cookie-cutter vibes. Instead, you’ll get headshots that capture your authenticity, personality, and presence, the kind of photos that help people instantly connect with you.



Because your headshot should stand out… not look like everyone else’s.

Not your typical headshots.

I'M ANNELISE BLISS

If you’re looking for one-size-fits-all headshots, I'm not the right photographer for you—and that’s intentional.
I don't do boring.

I create headshots with personality—relaxed, confident, and real.

No boring backgrounds. No awkward energy.

Just images that actually look like the best version of you.

Is the Power Hour session right for me? 

This fast-paced, focused session is designed for one individual. We jump right in to capture professional headshots  and some simple brand shots. It’s ideal for real estate agents, public speakers, therapists and influencers.

This session is NOT the best fit for those needing extra warm-up time, multiple looks or props, or for businesses wanting to showcase multiple services or team members.

In that case my branding Signature Session might be a better fit. 

this is what I want!

FAQs

How do I know if I need new headshots?

It might be time for new headshots if:
  • Your current photo doesn’t really look like you anymore
  • Your business or career has grown or shifted
  • You’re updating your website or LinkedIn
  • Your last professional photo was taken more than a couple of years ago
New, professional headshots instantly elevate your online presence and help people connect with the person behind the work.


What’s the difference between a headshot & branding photos??

Headshots are clean, simple portraits that focus primarily on your face and expression. They’re perfect for places like LinkedIn, speaking bios, and professional profiles. Branding photos go deeper—they show more of your personality, your work, and your story. 

Where will the session take place?

Headshot sessions can take place at a daylight studio, your office or even outdoors. The choice is yours! I can work with what you have or offer location suggestions.

How long does a headshot session take?

Individual headshot sessions usually take 10 minutes or less. For businesses, it’s common to schedule employees in 10-minute time slots, allowing everyone to get their headshots done efficiently—often within just a couple of hours.

If you choose the Power House Session (for 1 person) it takes 1 hour.

I hate having my photo taken. Can you help with that?

You are definitely not alone! Most people show up saying this. My sessions are relaxed, encouraging, and a little bit fun so you can feel be yourself. I’ll guide you the entire time and we’ll work together to capture photos that actually like.
