Michael Cavotta Studios / HEADSPACE

Introduction: My name is Michael Cavotta and I was put on this earth to change the way people see things—starting with themselves. I’ve spent the last ten years of my life studying why some people show up and others don’t...on camera and in life. While I don’t pretend to have all the answers, I do have a process that creates winning images—one that’s been proven to work thousands of times over. That process based on the science of first impressions. You’ll see it in the way I prep you for your shoot; it informs how I'll direct you on camera; it’s the basis of my neuroselection process that will take us beyond the lens of ego to reveal the image that says the right things about you. From there, you’ll get a realtime preview of how I transform your raw capture into an investment-grade image good for returns on impression for years to come. When you're working with me, you’re the most important person in the room. Studio photographers can be prima donnas, but not me. I reply to my own email. I schedule my own appointments. I answer my own phone. Go ahead—try me :-) My base fee is $350, plus per image retouch & release (details in my rate card). I do offer student and military discounts. —m
