Book your headshot session near Dublin.

Not a fan of getting your photo taken? You’re not alone.

I hear it all the time! But a good headshot can completely change how you’re seen online. Whether you’re updating LinkedIn, launching a business, or just want a photo that actually looks like you, I’ve got you covered.

I’m Sharon, the photographer behind Shaby Photography, and I specialise in relaxed headshot sessions from my countryside studio in County Meath — just outside Dublin.

What to Wear for Your Headshot

– Choose solid colours, they always work best.

– Avoid busy prints, big logos, or neon (your face is the focus!).

– Bring a second outfit if you’re unsure.

– Wear something you feel confident in. Comfy and flattering wins every time.

– Think about where the photo will go: website, social media, CV? Let that guide your style.

💄 Should You Get Hair and Makeup?

Totally up to you. Some clients arrive ready to go, while others love booking hair and makeup beforehand, as it gives that extra boost of confidence.

If you’d like a recommendation, I can personally vouch for Amy’s Beauty Aesthetics. Amy is a talented makeup and nail artist based just outside Kilcock, and her work is perfect for natural, polished headshots. She knows exactly how to enhance your features without making you feel overdone, and she’s lovely to work with too.

What happens during the Photo Session in Dublin?
  • You arrive, we chat, the kettle goes on.
  • I guide you through simple, natural poses.
  • We’ll shoot for 30–40 minutes, with plenty of breaks if needed.

It’s calm, comfortable, and completely un-scary. No stiff poses. No cheesy backdrops. Just you, looking like the best version of you.

✨ Will You Photoshop My Headshots?

I get asked this a lot! And the answer is ‘yes I can’ – but only gently and only if you want me to! I’ll tidy up small things like temporary blemishes during your headshot session, flyaway hairs, or that one wrinkle my lighting picked up more than usual. But you’ll still look like you. Think of it as a polished version of yourself on a really good day — not a magazine cover from 1972. No filters – No face swaps – No frozen expressions. Just clean, natural edits that keep things real, perfect for your headshot session in Dublin.

Where I’m based

Shaby Photography is based in the County Meath countryside, about 30 minutes from Dublin. I’m just outside Kilcock, close to Maynooth and Enfield. There’s easy parking at the studio and a relaxed space where you can take a breath and get great photos. I can also travel to your location – just give me a call to discuss.
