Detroit headshot and personal branding photographer Nico Salgado creates cinematic, dramatic portraits for executives, entrepreneurs, and creatives who want their image to look as powerful as their brand.



This isn't "stand against the wall and smile" photography. Every session is carefully designed around your brand, industry, and personality so your images work everywhere you show up.
For headshot and personal-brand clients, Nico offers a session designed to give you the widest range of images you can confidently use across your website, LinkedIn, speaking engagements, press features, and social media. Your session focuses on clean, flattering head-and-shoulders portraits, with strong coaching throughout — expression, posture, angles, and small adjustments that make a big difference on camera.
To maximize variety, Nico recommends multiple wardrobe changes (bring more options than you think you'll need). A mix of jackets, tops, and accessories is ideal — because if it's not there, it can't be photographed. Sessions can run anywhere from 15 minutes to 3 hours, depending on your goals, the number of looks you want, and the range of images you'd like to walk away with.
For branding and portrait clients, Nico creates a broader set of imagery by photographing a variety of looks and intentionally varying lighting, backgrounds, and framing — from headshots to three-quarter and full-body portraits, plus lifestyle-style images when needed. These sessions are typically a minimum of 3 hours and are built to give you a complete library of content for marketing and visibility.
Throughout the shoot, you'll review images with Nico to narrow down the strongest options in real time. This review process isn't just about picking favorites — it's also a powerful coaching tool that helps you refine what works best and keeps you improving with every set.
Each purchased image includes professional retouching and full usage rights for your personal brand and business marketing. Final retouched images are delivered within one week after payment is received in full.
