CK Headshots Atlanta is a headshot and portrait photography studio serving Atlanta, Georgia, operated by owner and sole photographer Carlisle Kellam. Kellam brings more than 20 years of professional photography experience and 15 years of work within the film and theatre community, a background that informs both the actor-specific work and the corporate portrait services the studio offers.
Service lines cover several distinct client segments. Business and corporate headshot sessions are available for individuals, employee teams, and large group bookings at conferences and corporate events. Actor headshot packages are produced to meet industry standards used by casting professionals in the film and theatre market. Editorial and portrait photography, personal-use portraits for web profiles and author bios, and small business owner photography complete the studio’s offerings.
Sessions can take place at the studio location or on-site at client workplaces, corporate offices, event venues, or conference facilities, making the studio suitable for both individual appointments and larger organizational headshot days. Every engagement is handled personally by Kellam, with no work delegated to associates or assistants.
Every package includes three standard deliverables: a personal pre-shoot consultation to discuss goals, wardrobe, and preparation; an online password-protected proof gallery through which clients select their final images; and professional in-house custom retouching that addresses blemishes, lighting corrections, and other post-processing refinements.
The studio’s stated philosophy is that effective headshots require both technical proficiency and the ability to draw authentic, natural expression from subjects. Guidance on posing, wardrobe, and makeup is provided as part of the session experience. Optional on-site makeup artist services are available for an additional fee for clients who want professional preparation on the day of the shoot.
The studio’s website hosts an active blog with headshot preparation tips and a FAQ section addressing common questions, including the practical difference between a headshot and a portrait and how to choose appropriate wardrobe for each context. The blog is a recurring resource for clients researching headshot sessions in Atlanta and for the broader regional film, theatre, and corporate markets.
