    — Jasmine Ahmed

  • 5 star review - Alissa Randall is extraordinary at what she does! I was looking for fresh headshots that fully reflect my power, personality, and potential at this stage in my life and career. I wanted to look my age, feel gorgeous, and embody my confidence and authentic presence. Simply put, Alissa has a phenomenal way of creating just an environment to do that. Through direct feedback, clear coaching, chill vibe, and allowing ME "to be the hero" of your shoot, she captured my essence in the most wonderful way. And, the extra time beforehand to review wardrobe and jewelry choices was generous, and perfectly well-spent so as to maximize the shoot time! I was somewhat hesitant about making this level of investment in my headshots; I am SO glad that I did. Run, don't walk, to book your new headshots with Alissa! She's a gem!

    — Marissa Fernandez

  • 5 star review - I could not be happier with my headshots and the overall experience. Alissa is simply a master of her craft. The entire experience was seamless, and I walked away with the perfect headshots.

    — Julie O’Connor

  • 5 star review - I came across Alissa's business one night while on LinkedIn. I was immediately drawn to her work and I contacted her right away. She was so responsive and we talked that very evening. From the beginning, Alissa was incredible to work with and was so collaborative. In my nearly 25 year career, I have never had a professional headshot. It was something I wanted to do for myself and I really wanted an image that captured who I was as a person and business woman. I was surprised to find myself quite nervous at the shoot. But Alissa was amazing and helped to get me comfortable in front of the camera. The experience working with her and her team was amazing. The part that was really hard was narrowing down the photos to just a select few because there were so many great photos to choose from! I wanted my photos to capture my warm personality as well as my strength and determination as a leader and a woman. When I look at my photos that is exactly what I see. I am so grateful for my experience with Alissa and her team. Don't hesitate to invest in yourself and having an amazing headshot. You will not be disappointed in the results or your experience!

  • 5 star review - I'm a part of the Princeton Black Student Union and we had Alissa come in to do professional headshots for around 65 students. The pictures came out great and everyone really loved how high-quality and professional they came out! It was also really nice for everyone to get their pictures immediately! Alissa, her husband, and their assistant were all awesome at getting the best smiles out of everyone. 10/10 would recommend!

  • 5 star review - Alissa and her team were so professional, fun, engaging and the results were fantastic. From the 'zoom' try-on, to the make-up session, to the actual portraits and editing, I was really excited and proud of the results. Everyone should experience this at least once in their lifetime!

    — Sarah Alper

  • 5 star review - I hired Alissa to update my professional headshot at the end of 2022. I could not have been more thrilled with the photo shoot experience and outcome. Alissa’s direction during the shoot and her eye for detail gave me a high level of confidence and ease during our session. And, her stylist did an amazing job with my make-up and hair making me look and feel natural since I am not one to wear make-up normally. The resulting photos were OUTSTANDING. I am happy I took the time to make this the investment in myself.

    — Wendy Palacios

    — Meg Haley

  • 5 star review - I've never had what I would call a real headshot. I cropped a picture from a family portrait, but as my career has evolved, I really needed something that reflected who I am both personally and professionally. Enter Alissa. I've tried those conference booths that do headshots, but they never saw the light of day. The lighting was off, or my outfit looked frumpy. Working with Alissa was a completely different and amazing experience. She got everything right and made the process easy and fun. From helping with wardrobe selection, to hair and makeup and great tunes during the shoot, Alissa ensured my photos would bring out the true me. But it's not just the experience, my pictures are amazing! She captured who I am and made me feel beautiful and powerful. I highly recommend Alissa and her team.

    — Mary S. McNiff

  • 5 star review - Alissa and her team are the ultimate professionals. I needed a new set of headshots for work, and was not looking forward to it as all my headshots in the past have come out inauthentic looking and uncomfortable to do. Telling Alissa this, she made a concerted effort to make the process as effortless as possible, created a fun and relaxed environment, and didn't stop until I was happy with the final product! I would highly recommend Alissa for anyone that is looking for photos with someone who helps you through every step of the process.

  • 5 star review - I had a wonderful experience when I visited Alissa in New York to get fresh headshots done. I enjoyed the turnkey experience of visiting a single location to get hair and make up done and getting the shots done immediately after. She made me feel comfortable and guided me throughout the session to get optimal results! She also played great tunes in the background that made the experience fun and stress-free! Most importantly, the shots look gorgeous and it was worth every penny! I would recommend her to anyone who needs professional head shots.

    — Nancie Walker

    — Nora Freedman Guzman

  • 5 star review - I hired Alissa to finally have a professional headshot done, and I am astounded at how good she and the makeup artist she used made me look. I usually don't like any photos of myself. These are different. Alissa was so easy to work with, her stylist was incredible, and the shots not only look great, but look exactly like the attitude I am trying to convey. WELL WORTH the price - you get what you pay for for sure! Highly recommend, and have recommended to my colleagues.

    — Claire Gill

  • 5 star review - Professional headshots are one of those "must-do" tasks associated with building your personal brand. I've never thought much about this task, opting to let my work, reputation as a leader and the quality of my relationships take the first chair in defining my brand. Enter joining Chief and seeing the brilliant work of Alissa Randall Fruchtman, photographer and essence capturer. Working with Alissa was pure joy! She creates a warm, comfortable environment and encourages you to "just be you". Bonus - she has the "Beyonce fan!" :) Super grateful for the experience and thankful to Alissa for capturing my essence and sharing my story.

    — Rachael Jones

  • 5 star review - Alissa is such a gifted photographer, and I am so happy and satisfied that I got her for the job - getting new stunning & authentic headshots.

    — Jenny Fuss

  • 5 star review - I hired Alissa to do my professional headshots and she blew it out of the water. I especially appreciated that hair, makeup, and styling consultation are all included so that you aren't on your own to figure those things out, as they all really impact the final product. Posing for pictures really isn't my comfort zone, but Alissa guided me through it and got a great result. Hire her immediately!

    — Cathy Davenport Lee

  • 5 star review - Alissa made "getting the right shot" easy. She understands the personalities of the people she is photographing and makes certain that their personality shines through. I have already recommended her to other colleagues and friends. She's wonderful and working with her is really special.

    — Jen Thorson

  • 5 star review - After 20 years of old pictures I decided that it was time to finally get some headshots of who I am today. Let's be clear: I hate doing headshots and one of the reasons I did not do any for such a long time is because I didn't see it as a nice thing to do. No here we go: I found Alissa Randall and I could not be any happier with the experience and the result. It was fun and hard work at the same time and I absolutely love my pictures!

    — Nina Sichtermann

  • 5 star review - I have never had a professional headshot before. My profile picture was amateur at best. I needed a headshot for professional organizations, business bids and social media. Your picture and how you present yourself says a lot about you. If you don't believe in you why should anyone else? Be a strong leader, but your best foot forward. Start with a professional headshot by Alissa Randall. You will have fun while accomplishing something so important. Alissa is a professional who really knows how to capture the real you in a picture.
