WHAT MAKES US DIFFERENT

Looking for a Syracuse headshot photographer who actually gets how uncomfortable it can feel in front of the camera?

You're not alone—most of the professionals who come to my CNY headshot studio start out feeling the same way.

Truth is, I’ve been there too. I know what it’s like to dread getting your photo taken.

But your headshot shouldn't look like a forced high school yearbook photo or a dated "SEARS PORTRAIT"—and it doesn’t have to.

That's why I take a different approach. I use expression coaching to help you relax and bring out the real, confident, approachable version of yourself—the one that makes people stop scrolling and actually want to connect.

Whether you're based in Syracuse, Central New York, or just passing through, you're not just another face in front of the camera.

You're the lead character in your story—and your headshot should reflect that.

And yes… this can absolutely be you.

A woman with long blonde hair wearing colorful, patterned glasses, a light-colored top, and a green blazer, standing against a dark background.

He didn’t just take photos...he helped me show up in them. With patience, humor, and a truly calming presence, he pulled me out of my shell and captured the real me.

I went to Gregg to get headshots and well taken pictures; but what I got was so much more. I got clear brilliant photos due to Gregg owning the responsibility of the task at hand.
