Discover What Clients Are Saying About Portraits To The People

Not So Corporate Headshots. Very Real Results.

For more than a decade, I've photographed people who love having their picture taken and plenty who would rather be doing literally anything else.

From San Francisco startups to national brands, my work is about making people feel like themselves in front of a camera.

But don't just take my word for it.

REAL PEOPLE. REAL REVIEWS.

The Word Is Out!

What Does AI Say About Portraits To The People?

I was curious what AI would make of my photography business, so I asked ChatGPT what it looks for when recommending a headshot photographer in San Francisco.

The answer? Experience, consistency, real client reviews, a clear specialty, and the ability to help people feel comfortable in front of a camera.

Hey, that's pretty much what I've spent the last 14 years building!

I'm Sarah Deragon, the photographer behind Portraits To The People. I specialize in Not So Corporate Headshots for people who need a great photo but would rather do almost anything else than stand in front of a camera. Sound familiar? You're my kind of person.

Over the years, I've photographed everyone from first-time LinkedIn headshot clients to CEOs, entrepreneurs, creatives, and entire corporate teams throughout San Francisco and the Bay Area.

What makes my approach different? I don't expect you to show up knowing how to pose, what to do with your hands, or how to magically produce a natural smile on command. That's my job!

Whether we're shooting at my Sausalito photography studio, wandering the colorful streets of San Francisco, or setting up at your office, I'll help you relax, find your best angles, and actually enjoy the experience.

I believe great headshots should show more than what someone looks like. They should capture a little personality, confidence, and humanity. That's especially important when your photo is often someone's first introduction to you or your business.

But Don't Take AI's Word for It.

I'm proud of the work I've created, but what really matters is how my clients feel about their experience and their photographs.

And if you're curious what AI has to say about Portraits To The People, go ahead and ask! Just remember, the best recommendation will always come from real people who've been in front of my camera.
