Strategic Head Shots and Executive Image Advisory
for Leaders Ready to Be Seen
Most clients begin this process when their role or visibility has shifted and they need their image to reflect their position authentically.
MEET THE FOUNDER & Advisor
hi, I'm PAIGE!
I am the founder of Bellus Photography and the advisor behind The Bellus Head Shot and Executive Image Advisory. My work focuses on guiding professionals through moments of increased visibility — when how you are seen matters as much as what you say.
Most people are not comfortable in front of the camera, and they do not need to be. My role is to provide structure, clarity, and direction throughout the process, so you are never left guessing how to present yourself.
Whether you are stepping into a new role, refreshing an outdated online presence, or representing a firm where credibility is essential, your session is fully guided, intentionally styled, and executed with restraint and purpose.
The result is not a performance. It is an image that reflects who you are now.
Why Bellus?
Guided, advisory-led sessions
Every session is structured, fully guided, and designed around a clear theme.
A composed, professional experience
The process is organized, efficient, and respectful of your time.
Images aligned with who you are now
Final portraits are refined, current, and to reflect credibility, authority, and approachability.

Two Ways to Work Together:
1-The Bellus Head Shot
For professionals and business owners who need a current, polished image without a full advisory session. Bellus Head Shot sessions are photographed at the Bellus studio and are designed to be efficient (we respect your busy schedule), guided, and refined.
This session is ideal for those who:
•Need an updated professional head shot for business or online presence
•Prefer a simple, focused studio appointment
•Sessions include guided posing and expression coaching, professional retouching of one selected image, and the option to purchase additional images if desired.
Head shots are offered on select studio dates each month.
Begin with a consultation to determine if a head shot session or the image advisory experience is the best fit.
2-The Image Advisory
The Image Advisory Experience is designed for professionals and business owners who want more than a simple update and are ready for imagery that fully reflects their role, presence, and level of visibility. This session is thoughtfully planned and guided from start to finish, with attention to wardrobe, styling, expression, and how your images will be used. With time to create a cohesive set of portraits, the result is a refined collection of images that feel natural, confident, and aligned with where you are now and where you are going.
This session is ideal for those who:
Are stepping into a new level of leadership, visibility, or professional growth
Have built a career or business they are proud of and want their image to reflect that level
Need more than a single head shot and would benefit from a cohesive set of professional portraits
Value thoughtful planning, wardrobe guidance, and a fully guided experience
For many clients, this experience marks a moment where their image begins to match the level they have already reached.
Which session is right for you?
The Image Advisory Experience is ideal if you:
*Are stepping into a new role, promotion, or increased visibility
*Need imagery that reflects leadership, authority, and presence
*Want a fully guided, styled, and in-depth portrait experience
*Prefer time to create a cohesive set of images for multiple uses
A Bellus Headshot may be the better fit if you:
*Need a current, polished professional image
*Prefer a simple and efficient studio session
*Want a refined update without a full advisory experience
*Value guidance and quality but have limited time
Request a consultation and we’ll determine the best fit together.
Recent Client Work
Most of my clients are established professionals and business owners who have worked hard to build meaningful careers and lives. They are thoughtful about how they show up in the world and want their images to reflect who they are seen by their clients — capable, credible, and comfortable in their own skin.
Many have not loved being photographed in the past and are often surprised by how grounded and guided this experience feels.
My work is rooted in helping people feel at ease, refining the details that matter, and creating portraits that look polished and natural without ever feeling forced or stale.
Each Image Advisory session is guided, intentionally
styled, and aligned with the client’s role and visibility.
The Executive Image
Advisory Process
1. The Consultation
We begin with a private and focused consultation to understand your current role, visibility,
and the impression your image needs to communicate and support.
This ensures we’re aligned with your branding before we ever take the first shot.
2. Wardrobe, Tone & Presence
We will design theme, decide wardrobe choices, create the tone and
overall presence for the shoot. Everything is intentionally guided based on your
role and your audience and brand aesthetic.
3. The Session
Your session is fully guided, directed and structured. Posing, expression,
and pacing are managed throughout the session to create composed and confident images.
4. Final Selection & Delivery
Following your session, I curate and refine the final images. You are presented
with a small, purposeful selection, chosen for clarity, versatility, and impact.
If this sounds like the kind of experience you’ve been looking for,
I invite you to begin with a consultation and we can plan the details together.
A focused advisory experience for leaders—aligning your image with your role, authority, and presence. Serving the New Orleans metro + available for travel.
