Portland, Oregon’s Most Trusted Photographer for Kids Headshots



Kids Headshots FAQ

  • What makes your kids' headshots different from others?

    • At Michael Verity Photography, we specialize in capturing your child’s unique personality, with a focus on authenticity. Our session includes elite coaching to help them feel relaxed and confident.

  • How do you make sure my child looks natural in the photo?

    • Through gentle direction and a sense of fun, we help your child feel at ease while creating an environment where their true character shines. Our focus is on bringing out their best, with minimal posing.

  • What should my child wear for their headshot session?

    • We recommend simple, timeless clothing that reflects your child’s personality. Avoid logos and busy patterns. Neutral tones and soft fabrics often work best to keep the focus on your child's face.

  • What is the best age for kids to have professional headshots taken?

    • There's no "perfect" age but headshots work best when children are old enough to follow direction and show expressions naturally. Typically, we start taking headshots around age 5 or older (though we do portfolios for babies and toddlers as young as 9 months old.)

  • How long does a kids' headshot session take?

    • A kids' headshot session typically lasts 30 to 60 minutes depending on the number of looks. We keep the session light and fun to ensure your child remains engaged and comfortable throughout the process.

Since 2008, Michael Verity Photography has been creating word-class headshots for child actors in the cities of Portland, OR and Vancouver, WA. We build confidence and character while capturing each kid’s unique personality.
