My experience with Joshua was absolutely fantastic! The session was everything that I hoped for and the friendly, laid back atmosphere that Joshua creates really helps you settle in to your most natural self. Thanks for a great session Josh and I look forward to coming back!!

I had an excellent experience working with Joshua. He’s extremely professional. At our first meeting, he gave me his undivided attention, took the time to explain the process, get to know my personality, talked about my goals and needs and about the business itself, which was very helpful in choosing a direction and knowing what I wanted my headshots to look like. He made sure to check with me at all times during our session and made sure I was pleased with what I was seeing. He is a talented photographer and very knowledgeable about the industry. And very important, he’s fun to work with. I walked out with a cd and all images included. Outstanding service.

Working with Joshua was an amazing experience. We did headshots with him for our daughter. He was extremely professional, made her feel at ease and as an actor himself, was excellent when it came to helping her capture the theatrical shots needed. There was honestly not a bad shot in the bunch. Highly, highly recommended!

I had the most fantastic time with Joshua. He constantly checked in with me during the shoot, asking my thoughts, while contributing his expert opinion. Being able to screen my headshots after every look was an invaluable resource as well. It allowed me to get a visual of how the session was going, which was very comforting. In turn, I was able to relax and really enjoy the entire experience!

This was my very first professional shoot.(scary right?!) Not! Joshua Albanese greeted me at the door and made me feel right at home. His experience and camera-side manners along with a great make-up artist made the session not only fun the 1-1/2 hours flew by. I also loved the open contempory look of the studio. It was very exciting with a lot of elbow room. But when I got in front of the camera Joshua made me feel very cozy. My pictures turned out great!!!

I could not be more pleased with the head shots! Josh was amazing and professional to work with. I originally met him as he was the second photographer for my wedding. Loved his enthusiasm that day and was blown away with it when I went to his studio for my head shots. He sincerely cares about his work and wants you to have the best you can. Before I even left that day we reviewed all the shots over a flat screen to flag our favorites. As soon as I posted my new pictures on my casting sites I got more auditions AND had even been complimented on them while I was out on them. I highly recommend Josh for wedding and head shots.

My experience with Joshua Albanese Photograhy was great. He was able to take his time and bring out natural facial shots for my great headshots. I was also able to hire a great and inexpensive makeup artist, who can actually do African American makeup, through Joshua. Josuhua who is a former Chicago actor himself, also gave me great tips/ information about the industry. Immediately after your shoot you will receive a cd with all of the pics that have been taken that day. Joshua will also help you choose the best shots so that you can chose the ones that you want to have retouched. I absolutely love my headshots and have been told they were great by industry casting directors!!
