WASIO Faces is a professional headshot and portrait studio based in Santa Ana, California, led by owner and primary photographer Yaneck Wasiek, a Master of Photography as designated by the Professional Photographers of America. We specialize in headshots that actually look like you on your best day: sharp, natural, and built to make a strong first impression on LinkedIn, a company website, or a conference badge.
While our studio is home base in Orange County, our work doesn't stop there. We travel nationwide to shoot team headshots for companies who want a consistent, polished look across their whole staff, and we run Headshot Booth, our mobile setup for conferences and trade shows, so attendees can walk away with a professional photo without ever leaving the event floor.
Every session is guided start to finish, from posing and expression coaching to lighting that's flattering and consistent. Whether it's one executive portrait or two hundred employees across multiple offices, the goal is the same: photos your team is proud to use.

Very friendly and professional. They took the time to be sure hair and clothing was in order. They took multiple head shot positions, providing clear instructions on how to pose. They also helped to narrow down and select the best shots from the multiple poses.

It was great working with Yaneck and Sasha. Yaneck helped me get the exact poses and backdrops for the kind of photos that I wanted. I chose the two retouched photos package and they are both excellent. One has more of a creative flair and the other one is more of a business headshot. I’m so thankful that I found them. They are great photographers and nice people. I highly recommend working with them — you will be thrilled with the outcome!!!

I had a great experience with Wasio. From their responsiveness during scheduling to their friendliness and attention to my specific needs during the photo shoot, I knew I found my photographer going forward. They work great as a team to make you feel comfortable and get your best shot.

What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
When you confirm the session we will check with you what style of headshots will be the best fit for your needs. During the session we will continuously review the photos to make sure we are getting results you're happy with. Right after the session we will sit down together and go over all the photos to select the favorites ones for our Signature Edits

We have been photographing for over 10 years professionally and we are proud members of Wedding & Portrait Photographers International (WPPI) - biggest and most prestigious portrait organization in the world, Professional Photographers of America (PPA) and San Diego Chamber of Commerce.
We continuously invest into our photography education either in person in the form of workshops or online classes.
