Are you looking for a South Shore headshot photographer in Massachusetts? You’ve come to the right place. I create headshots that are natural, modern, and full of personality.
I’m Christina, the photographer behind Christina Runnals Photography, based in beautiful Scituate and serving clients all across New England. My signature style is light, bright, and vibrant. My images are crafted with natural light and an easygoing approach that helps even the most camera-shy clients feel at ease.
Whether you’re drawn to the glow of the outdoors or prefer the clean, polished aesthetic of a studio session, you can choose the setting that best reflects your brand and personality. I photograph headshots both in my natural-light studio in Scituate and in outdoor locations that give your images that relaxed, approachable feel.
Your headshot session will be easy, relaxed, and yes... actually fun! My goal is to make the process effortless from start to finish. Even if you usually dread the camera, you’ll feel comfortable and confident in front of mine.
Before your session, you’ll receive my Headshot Planning Guide. It includes wardrobe inspiration, styling and color tips, and my favorite local makeup artists. You’ll also find advice on how to prepare and what to expect. If you’d like, we can chat beforehand to discuss your vision or answer any last-minute questions.
During your 20-minute session, I’ll guide you every step of the way. You’ll move naturally, adjust expressions, and we'll find poses that flatter you best. Each moment feels simple, never stiff or awkward. As a result, your photos will look genuine and full of personality.
You can choose an outdoor session for a bright, natural look or a studio session in my Scituate studio for a modern, polished vibe. Both options use beautiful natural light to create the clean, vibrant style my clients love. As a South Shore headshot photographer, I’m passionate about creating portraits that feel approachable, authentic, and full of life.
After your session, you’ll receive an online proofing gallery. From there, you can easily select your favorite images for final editing. I’ll retouch each one carefully to keep your skin and tones looking natural, glowing, and true to you.
Finally, for small businesses or creative teams, I offer group headshot sessions. These can take place at my studio or on-site at your workplace. They’re efficient, consistent, and designed to create a cohesive, professional look across your entire team.

Next, you’ll receive my detailed Headshot Planning Guide. It includes wardrobe and color tips, location ideas, and my top hair and makeup artist recommendations. If you’d like, we can also chat by phone or email to make sure every detail feels right.
