Jerusalem and the surroundings
Headshots in Jerusalem
Professional headshots in Jerusalem: in the studio near the city, or with a mobile studio that comes to your bureau, office and organization anywhere in the city. And from there, all over Israel.
The approach
The photographer who knows Jerusalem up close
Jerusalem is not only a place of work; it is the subject of a book. The photography book Jerusalemites documents the city and its people, and received an official blessing from the President of Israel, Isaac Herzog. The same attention to face, expression and light stands behind every headshot made here.
Over the years hundreds of public figures, mayors, professionals and business people have been photographed in Sharon Gabay's studio. A good headshot is not a record of a face: it is a picture that draws out of you what cannot be staged, and tells who you are.
Two ways to shoot
In the studio near Jerusalem, or at yours in the city
A professional studio near Jerusalem
A quiet, fully equipped studio with a view of vineyards and complete privacy, a short drive from Jerusalem: a calm space that brings out a real expression, away from the pressure of the working day.
A mobile studio that comes to you in the city
A full lighting studio comes to your bureau, office or organization anywhere in Jerusalem, and a professional set is built in a meeting room within minutes. You do not move, and the result is identical to the studio.
Someone who knows Jerusalem
Author of the photography book Jerusalemites, which received the blessing of the President of Israel. Public figures, mayors and professionals have been photographed in Sharon Gabay's studio, Jerusalem figures among them.
Nationwide
A mobile studio that comes to you, anywhere in Israel
The service is not limited to Jerusalem. The business works on the model of a mobile studio that comes to you, at the office or at home, nationwide: centre, north and south, with the same lighting gear, the same method and exactly the same result. Jerusalem is one of the cities we shoot in, not the limit of the service.

The process
From the first message to the finished pictures
Simple and convenient: all you need is to pick a date.
- 01
A coordination call
A short conversation: what the picture is for, what the style is, and how many people are being photographed. We pick a date and a place, in the studio near Jerusalem or at yours in the city.
- 02
The shoot
In the studio, or with a full mobile studio that comes anywhere in Jerusalem and is set up within minutes. The shoot is directed from start to finish: pose, angle and expression.
- 03
Selection and editing
We choose the best pictures together, and each one gets precise, professional editing. You receive all the raw files too.
Who it is for
Who headshots in Jerusalem are for
Anyone whose face is part of the job: public figures and elected officials, executives at institutions and companies, lawyers and accountants, doctors and therapists, academics and lecturers, entrepreneurs and business owners. A lawyer's picture differs from a high-tech person's, so the site has dedicated guides on the headshots by profession page, beside the headshots for women page.
Preparation
How to prepare for the headshot
The wardrobe, two weeks before. Choose 3 to 5 sets in solid, uniform colours that flatter you, in a cut that fits well. Avoid large prints, fine stripes and prominent logos, and always bring one more option; often it is the one chosen.
Grooming, a week before. A haircut or colour about 5 to 7 days before the shoot, so the hair has time to settle. Drink water and keep your usual routine; this is not the time for new products.
The day before, rest. A good night's sleep and water. Do not rehearse expressions and angles in the mirror; we find them together during the shoot. The coordination call has already settled the message, the clothes and the place, so on the day itself all that is left is to be photographed.

Reviews
What clients say
I warmly recommend Sharon Gabay — one of Israel's top portrait and headshot photographers. He's an artist who not only knows how to shoot, but how to "read" the person in front of him, draw out their true personality and translate it into a precise, powerful frame.
Sharon is first and foremost an artist, and on top of that a precise, professional and pleasant headshot photographer who knows how to make the whole shoot feel natural, flattering and reassuring. Working with him was an excellent experience — full of patience, a sharp eye, and the ability to deliver an exceptionally high-quality result.
Sharon is a gifted, genuine professional. It was a precise, professional experience. From the very first moment there was attentiveness, sensitivity, and above all a great deal of talent.
