Williamsburg Studio · Through June 7th

How you
show up
matters.

Your profile photo should speak for you.

That's where I come in.

Portrait sessions for men who know presence matters and want to show up authentically — in the boardroom, on the profile, in every room they walk into before they've said a word. Think a magazine feature built around you.

The moment between poses — that's the one that works.

You're not performing.
You're being seen.

Most photographers tell you where to stand and what to do, and of course I'll guide you and give you spontaneous ideas, but the difference is that I watch for what happens when you stop thinking about where to stand. Those are the instants that feel inevitable.

Before we shoot, we connect. I want to learn how you want to be perceived — on the app, in the pitch, at the conference. This conversation shapes everything: the light, the wardrobe, the frame.

The result isn't a photo session. It's a set of images that work as hard as you do and attract what is meant for you.

Dating profiles

Stop losing matches to photos that don't show who you actually are. The right image changes the conversation before it starts.

Personal brand

LinkedIn, website, social — everywhere your face needs to carry your authority before you've said a word.

Press & leadership

Speaker bios, editorial features, company pages — images that communicate trust and presence on a global stage.

01 — Lifestyle Portraits

Lifestyle
Portraits

The full range of who you are — not just how you look at work. We blend editorial direction with personal authenticity: multiple looks, multiple moods, images that work across every context that matters to you.

This is the session if you want photos that actually reflect you — not a version of you that exists only in a suit in front of a backdrop.

The process

Relaxed, guided, effortless.

01 We talk first

Before anything else, a conversation — about how you want to be perceived, what context matters, what you've never liked about photos of yourself.

02 You're guided throughout

No awkward posing from a script. I direct actively and watch for the instants between poses — the ones that look like you've always known who you are.

03 You choose, I retouch

Private Pixieset gallery. You select on your own time. Fully retouched finals delivered in high resolution within the week — optimized for print and social media.

What clients say
Philip Hordijk

"Javi's portraits reflect the same values I lead my firm with — professional, effective, and transparent. He understands how to create images that communicate trust and presence on a global stage."

Philip Hordijk — New York
Marco Velasco

"I've had headshots before. I've never had portraits. Javi sees something in you that most photographers don't look for — and then he captures it. My dating profile response rate went up immediately."

Marco Velasco — Brooklyn
Dean Banks

"The session itself was worth it — before I even saw the photos. He makes you feel completely at ease. The images came back and I finally looked like the person I feel like on the inside."
