VALENTINA PORTRAITURE | AUSTIN, TX
Headshots
By Valentina
The portrait that precedes you.
Before anyone meets you, they meet your photo. Worth getting right. Worth the wait.
Valentina Portraiture is a boutique headshot studio in Austin, Texas, and we exist for one reason: to make sure your first impression is actually working for you.
Your headshot decides things before you get the chance to. Whether someone trusts you, hires you, or scrolls past. The professionals who come to us have usually been putting it off, using an old photo, a borrowed aesthetic, or something that simply doesn't match where they are now.
Located in Lakeway, Valentina has spent over a decade doing this work personally. Every session is directed by her, professional hair and makeup are included from the start, and you'll leave with images that finally look like the version of you that's already showing up in the room.
Seeing yourself as art is not a bonus here. It is the whole point.
Your first impression
is working against you.
Your headshot decides things before you get the chance to. Whether someone trusts you, hires you, or scrolls past. We take care of everything so you have only to show up, plus we make it fun!
Directed personally by Valentina from her private Lakeway studio. Professional hair and makeup included from the start. No rotation of associates, no rushed sessions just the portrait you've been putting off having taken.

Valentina created an amazing photo shoot experience. The makeup artist did a fantastic job. Valentina made me feel very comfortable in front of the camera. She has an artistic eye and was able to deliver portraits that are truly special and unique, so much more than your typical head shot. She captured the mood and vibe I had hoped for… Highly recommend!!"
—Amanda Picken with Goodbody Wellness“Oh my gosh, where do I even begin? I had the pleasure of getting new headshots at one of Valentina’s branding shoots, and the entire experience was amazing from start to finish. I hadn’t been in front of a camera in over a decade, so I was super nervous going in. But the moment I stepped into Valentina’s studio, I felt completely at ease. She welcomed me with such energy and excitement—it instantly made me feel special and taken care of. Lisa did my makeup, and it looked incredible. I only brought a couple of outfits, and Valentina helped me choose the perfect first look. From there, we jumped right in! Valentina was so enthusiastic and genuinely invested in my vision. She made me feel confident, comfortable, and honestly—even glamorous! One of the things I loved most was getting to choose my final photos before I even left the studio. The turnaround was fast, the quality was top-tier, and I know these photos will be relevant and useful for years to come—which is such great value. If you haven’t updated your headshots or personal branding photos in a while, I can’t recommend this enough. It’s a perfect way to kick off a fresh chapter in your business or personal journey.”
— Jennifer Davis“I am not one to enjoy getting my photo taken so I went to Valentina just for some simple head shots. I left there feeling so confident that I chose way more than just head shots. She made me feel so beautiful, but she also made me look so beautiful. Her photography is unmatched!”
— Shanna Valentine, Attorney at law“My shoot with Valentina was amazing! We needed various looks for media and she really delivered. She was welcoming, calm, down to earth and a joy to work with. Highly recommended!”
