Kemp Photography flies a full portable studio to your Portland office and photographs your people back to back. Flat rates: $3,600 for a half day, $4,850 for a full day, with travel included. Your team stays put and the studio comes to them.
Why Portland teams book an on-site headshot day
Portland is a city of mid-sized companies with strong brand identities. Few of them want a stiff corporate portrait, and most want something that looks like their people. A day of on-site sessions can deliver that look to a whole office in a single sitting.
The metro's employer mix explains the demand.
- Athletic, outdoor, and apparel brands. Beaverton and the Pearl District house design, marketing, and product teams. Their portraits go on careers pages, press kits, and partner sites.
- Semiconductors and manufacturing. Hillsboro and Tualatin have a deep engineering workforce that appears on proposals and technical pages.
- Healthcare. Hospital systems and clinics across the region need provider and staff profiles.
- Software, advertising, and creative agencies. Downtown, the Lloyd District, and the Central Eastside host agencies and software teams who care a lot about how their own website looks.
Portland teams tend to be wary of anything that feels like a corporate template. We work to keep the look natural and clean, with the consistency a company site needs.
How a headshot day works in a Portland office
Portland buildings are a mix: mid-rise towers downtown, loft-style conversions in the Pearl and Central Eastside, and suburban campuses in Beaverton and Hillsboro. Each has its own load-in.
Loft and warehouse conversions. Usually easy. Freight elevators and open floors are common, and roomy conference spaces work well. Tell us the entrance and where to park.
Downtown and Lloyd District towers. Property managers sometimes ask for paperwork before a vendor enters. COI is available on request, and we can email it ahead.
Campuses in Beaverton and Hillsboro. Visitor lots and a front-desk check-in. Send us the steps and we arrive ready.
How the day goes:
- Book. Share your address, headcount, and dates. A 50 percent retainer reserves the day.
- Space. Choose a room of around 10 by 20 feet with an outlet.
- Setup. The crew arrives roughly an hour ahead of the first sitting.
- Sessions. Each person gets two to three minutes.
- Pick. People look at their images straight away and choose a favorite.
- Finals. Retouched files typically arrive within one to two weeks, with a roster page for the company.
What does a corporate headshot day cost in Portland?
Portland costs the same as every market we serve: $3,600 for a half day or $4,850 for a full day, flat. Travel is included. A half day fits roughly 50 to 60 people and a full day fits roughly 150 to 250.
| Package | Flat rate | Typical headcount | Illustrative cost per person |
|---|---|---|---|
| Half Day | $3,600 | ~50–60 | ~$60–$72 |
| Full Day | $4,850 | ~150–250 | ~$19–$32 |
| Multi-campus or larger | Quoted | 250+ | Multi-set or multi-day |
Per-person numbers are illustrative only. The rate you pay is the day rate. A Beaverton campus and a downtown office can share one project quote if the dates line up.

Multi-office companies with a Portland location
Portland is often one office among several. A company might have a headquarters here and sales teams elsewhere, or a regional office tied to a larger headquarters in California or on the East Coast.
For those teams, consistency is the point. Kemp Photography uses one lighting and backdrop recipe across offices and keeps the same lead photographer where we can. For Sentry Insurance, we photographed 552 employees across offices in 12 states in about one month. If your Portland people need to match a site in another city, one project covers both. We do not run a Portland studio; we travel in, and the price reflects the single flat rate.
Portland headshot day FAQ
How much do corporate headshots cost in Portland? Half Day is $3,600 for about 50 to 60 people. Full Day is $4,850 for about 150 to 250. These are flat rates with travel included, not per-person fees. If you have a downtown Portland office plus a Beaverton or Hillsboro campus, we can combine them into one quote.
Our office is in a converted warehouse in the Central Eastside. Is that OK? Great, in fact. Converted buildings often have big, quiet rooms and a freight elevator, which suits us. We need about 10 by 20 feet and an outlet. Tell us where to park and which entrance the crew should use. If the landlord wants paperwork, COI is available on request.
Can you cover Portland and Vancouver, Washington? Yes, as separate days. The bridges can slow things down, so we schedule each side on its own with the same lighting and background. Everyone ends up looking like part of the same team. Send addresses and headcounts for a combined quote.
Do you do athletic and creative teams that dress casually? Yes. We shoot to your brand, not to a suit. Many Portland teams prefer a relaxed, natural look with a clean background, and we can set the style before the day. Tell us if you want a darker backdrop for leadership and a lighter one for everyone else.
What is the booking process? Send your address, headcount, and target weeks. A 50 percent retainer reserves the date. If your timeline is short, call (714) 912-0766 and we will tell you whether the week is open. From there we confirm the room, the schedule, and which package fits, usually within a couple of emails.
Can we add people who join after the shoot day? Yes, ask about a follow-up day, sized to however many people have joined. We keep the lighting and backdrop recipe consistent so later additions match the original team page. It works well when a hiring wave or a new office opening is already on your calendar.
