Beware. Had to cancel/reschedule my appointment 4 weeks in advance….
Tried calling and texting and emailing for reschedule and/or refund - no response. I wouldn’t believe these 5 star reviews and from what I have seen will be scheduling elsewhere and seeking to get a refund via my CC company…. As keeping payment for services not rendered is unethical and poor business. Again - beware before you prepay!

Overall a great experience!
The reason for booking a photoshoot was to update my headshot. My decision was based on the exceptional reviews and Yannik did not disappoint.
The booking process was easy. When I arrived, I was greeted and taken care of immediately. When it was time to take my photo, Yannik took the time to coach and throughout the shoot, he gave positive affirmations of myself. It was a unique but great experience.
The retouched photos came out amazing and made me look natural. I am very pleased with the outcome.

~Yannik was AbSolutely fun to woRk with. So Professional yet makes you feel so comfortable. When you're comfortable, it reflects in your photos, which makes for more of a natural image.

FiVe StaRs across the Board!
ThaNk You!

Highly recommend! I’ve never cried in a shoot or had an experience of witnessing myself like this before. Yannik’s presence is relaxing and peaceful and allowed total space for me to completely let go of the parts that are used to “trying” in front of a camera and allow myself to authentically just be. ?

If you sign up to get your pictures done with Yannik, you are rolling the dice on whether or not you ever get your photos delivered. I’ve debated some time whether or not to write this review because overall I had such a great in-person experience with Yannik and I’ve seen that SOME people do miraculously get their pictures delivered. Yes, he comes off a little kooky and tries to be your life coach a little bit, but he did do a great job of helping me feel comfortable taking pictures plus it’s amazing to be able to take them yourself and choose the ones that you like best in real time. With that being said, when I tell you that I had to HOUND this man to get my photos delivered, I am not being facetious. During our session, Yannik promised I would get my pictures “in the next day or so, probably even today.” TEN days later - nothing. I checked my Spam inboxes - nothing. I called his business line - no answer ever. Left messages- nothing. I had Yanniks number bc prior to my session, he had messaged me via text to confirm the appointment - so I texted him directly to follow up on the pictures. I texted him FIVE separate times asking for the pics over the course of 4 more days before he finally sent me the pics. I looked up his business reviews on Yelp and realized a couple of other people had had a similar experience - I even reached out to them to ask them what happened - they never got their pictures back and gave up. Each time I texted Yannik, he would act surprised, confused and promised he would “try to see what happened.” He would say things like “that’s weird, you should have gotten them by now” and “I’ll get it to you tomorrow”, and then wouldn’t get them to me. I even IG messaged his co-worker photographer. I was about ready to roll up into his office to deal with it in person. By the end of this process it felt like I was pleading with him to send me my pictures. When he finally sent them, he blamed it on his technology / system which I’ve seen he’s told other people in other reviews. My experience took place in late January 2022 and I didn’t write a review bc I had already wasted precious energy on just getting the pictures back. However, I’ve realized he has continued to pull this stunt with other clients since then via recent reviews. Yannik seems to have run a successful business for many years and DOES incredible work with his photos, but has little regard for his client delivery experience and has stolen hundreds of dollars from people. If you sign up for a “perfect headshot” just remember during your session that you may never see those photos ever again.

Wow - this is wayyyyy more than just a headshot. This process invited me to really take a loving look at myself. Do I think I am beautiful? When do I feel the most beautiful? How can I express that beauty? It really turned me upside down and made me think. I would be curious to do this process once a year and watch my confidence grow over time. Thank you, Yannik!

I went to my appt to take my headshots on 6/3/22. My experience was definitely interesting. Definitely has a hippy/spiritual vibe. If you are into that, you'd love this place. I personally am not, and he was a little pushy of trying to explore as to why I didn't like taking pictures of myself. Which honestly made me feel even more uncomfortable. I felt like it was like an unwanted therapy session lol. Again, if you into all of that, then this is the place for you. BUT, that's not why I'm giving this this a 1 star review. I STILL HAVEN'T gotten my picture back yet! It's been about 6 WEEKS !!!! I've called, texted, emailed and NO RESPONSE. Not even an estimated time that it would be sent back. Considering that you pay $350 + for ONE edited PHOTO you would expect so much more from a small business owner. I know about 7+ more people and they still haven't had their photos sent back either. It's almost starting to feel a little like a scam. If I was talking to my future self, I'd say RUN TO ANOTHER COMPANY !!

This company is a SCAM! Very professional and timely responses during the scheduling, payment, and photo taking process. Not a word when it comes to receiving your photographs. It has now been 7 weeks since I took my headshots and I still have not received them back, or any word on when to expect them. This is not a cheap expense, and we were initially told that we should have these back in 2 weeks. Almost TWO MONTHS later and we are still waiting. Extremely unprofessional and unacceptable business practices. Save your money and use ANYONE else in Austin!

Today is July 13, 2022. I paid for my employees to get headshots around May 25. $333/person/ I have asked the owner, Yannik, for our photos (which have been paid for). Nothing. Could not be more frustrated or disappointed. The new price is going to $500, per the owner.

If you are questioning whether or not it is the right time to do The Perfect Headshot you are exactly where you are meant to be. Jump. Yannik is in his element and he is truly a professional at what he does. I could not recommend this experience enough. It will be a very monumental point in your life and you will be proud you did it. Thanks y’all. So much gratitude.

The Perfect Headshot is not only a fully-featured photography studio, but the owner, Yannik, is one of the people that makes Austin extra special. I love visiting the studio because I always feel refreshed and inspired whenever I leave. Just check it out - you'll see what I mean.

Great session and received wonderful images. I needed a wider shot image so will be going back to have that done.

Incompetent and irresponsible! Way overpriced. Don’t waste your time. Text messages, phone calls, voicemail and emails are NOT returned by the owner/photographer. Took TWO months to receive final proof. In the meantime I had to go somewhere else and I got my headshot in 3 days. Very disrespectful of your time and money. Horrible business practices.
