I took headshots at Butter Studio for my professional licensing application and to update my LinkedIn. I felt instantly comfortable at the studio and she was super efficient. She gave good directions to help me with poses and the finished photos came VERY quickly, even over the weekend. I would 100% go again whenever I need to update my pics!
