One photo in. One portrait with weight out. First look free, $25 by card if it lands.
Left: another stock shot, flat overcast light. Not a client, for the record.
Right: the same woman in my light. Same eyes, same years on her. The light did the rest.
The trade, twice over: one photo in, one portrait out.

Most faces sit in flat light. The kind that makes a person look like a bystander in their own picture. I fix the light, and nothing else.
How it works: 1. Mail me one photo of a face (clear, plain light, no heavy filters) and a line about what it's for. 2. First look free: I light it and send one take back, so you see it before anything else happens. 3. If it lands: $25 by card, and I finish the portrait (full resolution, cut for a profile frame or a print) within a day. One revision included. If it doesn't land, you owe nothing and the take comes down.
The photo should be a face you have the right to use. What you send stays between us; nothing goes public without your say. One free look per person.

Left: the photo I started from (a stock shot, flat daylight).
Right: the same man in my light. Face intact, daylight gone.
That's the whole trade: one photo in, one portrait out. The face stays. The weight changes.
