Headshots at Prescott Farm: Kara Malkovich

Have you thought about what makes a headshot successful? Guess what? As important as it is to have fabulous hair and makeup, I’ll be focusing the most on the single most definitive part of your character: your eyes. As you think about this, I recommend even practicing in the mirror beforehand! A slight squint and a piercing gaze will light up your images with pure, intense personality.

Headshots these days are all about keeping things natural and real. People want to see beyond the poses into the core of who you are. We don’t have to go crazy here, but when we get together I’ll be asking you to laugh and relax just as much as I ask you to pose with perfect posture. Let’s show the world what makes you unique!

Realtor® Kara Malkovich Gustave White Sotheby’s International Realty kept it fun and flirty during her shoot at Prescott Farm in Middletown, RI. Prescott Farm is a historic preservation of a colonial farm in spanning over 40 acres. Notable features of it include an operational windmill (c. 1812), and a University of Rhode Island Master Gardener project with the purpose of simulating a historical vegetable garden through careful research on what crops where grown during that time period.



Headshots on Goat Island: Mike Sweeney

When it comes to commercial headshots, I take a great amount of pride in capturing your best natural features, your strength, and your essence. My approach to photography is natural and relationship-oriented; I love to get to know my clients before putting them in front of the lens. I want to hear all about your story - both personal and professional - so I can tell it in light and color.

My goal is to create portrait images that say something meaningful about you. Are you an actor? A business professional? A model? I am confident in my ability to craft a series of images that truly say something about who you are and your goals in life. My portraits have been described as natural, vibrant, and versatile.

When Realtor® Mike Sweeney from Gustave White Sotheby’s International Realty in Newport, Rhode Island was looking to expand his customer base and showcase himself in an more natural setting, we agreed that Goat Island was the perfect locale for the shoot.
