PROFESSIONAL HEADSHOTS THAT SHOW YOU AT YOUR BEST
Most people hate the idea of stepping in front of a camera for professional headshots. However, your social media profile picture, or image of you on your company website, is often the first impression that potential employers or clients have of you. You are your brand. We need to make sure that the image that you are presenting to the world is working for you. The professional headshot you choose to represent you on LinkedIn, your email signature, website, Zoom, and so many other places is important. I specialize in professional headshots. We work together to create professional headshots that show you as confident and approachable. Believe it or not, and this shocks most people that I work with, we will create professional headshots that you love.

HEAR IT FROM PEOPLE I’VE CREATED HEADSHOTS FOR!
Lauren Sirls
I had a great experience getting professional headshots made with Ben. We worked through several outfits and expressions to get the best look. He had me laughing during our session and that’s what captured the best shot. I also booked makeup for the session and I highly recommend booking it as well!
Steve Woodrum
I was very fortunate to find Ben to update my professional business headshots. He not only made me feel at ease but somehow captured some shots that I was very happy with! When you’re ready for a refresh, give Ben a call you won’t regret the decision!
Shannon McCracken
I needed an updated professional profile picture and was referred to Ben by a good friend (with great taste!) From the decor of his cool downtown studio to the warm welcome & conversation throughout, the experience could not have been more professional and fun. Ben and the stylist, Pam, made me feel beautiful and confident during the shoot. I am so pleased with the result! Highly recommend.
Brooke Shelton
Going into my headshots, I was very apprehensive because I am not a big fan of taking photos… But, Ben made my experience so easy and fun, I would recommend him to anyone!
PROFESSIONAL HEADSHOTS PORTFOLIO
ABOUT LOUISVILLE PROFESSIONAL HEADSHOT PHOTOGRAPHER BEN MARCUM
Hello! I am Ben Marcum. I am a professional headshot photographer based in Louisville Kentucky.
I have had the pleasure of working with many entrepreneurs, lawyers, doctors, realtors, marketing professionals, IT specialists, and so many others who want more than just a picture, but instead, want a great professional headshot that shows them as confident and approachable. I have also work with companies such as YUM Brands, Venture First, Barrow Brown, Weyland Ventures, Vaughn & Smith, and many more.
I studied headshot photography with world-renowned headshot photographer Peter Hurley. I became the first photographer in this region to become an associate photographer in his training program and am now the first and only mentor in that program in Kentucky.
My goal with everyone I create headshots for is to capture images that exude genuine expressions and connection. I guide everyone through the session to ensure they leave my studio with headshots that they feel great about using. I look forward to creating the best professional headshot for you that you have ever seen!
