Reviews
It was fast, professional, she's really good at taking great shots. I found multiple great headsets for promoting myself as an actor!?
I had an incredible experience with Dorothy Shi, one of the best NYC photographers for actor headshots and model portfolio photography. She made me feel so confident and comfortable in front of the camera, and the photos came out beautifully -- perfect for casting submissions and agency use. Her studio on the Upper West Side is professional, welcoming, and very well-equipped. I highly recommend her to anyone building their portfolio or looking for high-quality headshots!
Dorothy Shi directed me throughout my acting headshot photo shoot with excellent results. I’ve already uploaded these photos to various websites, and the photos have not even yet been photoshopped!
Dorothy did a phenomenal job with the headshots I need for an upcoming book release. She is very professional to work with, starting with the session briefing, where she and I discussed the photo's objectives and target audience. She then reviewed the outfits I brought and selected which clothes would work best, and then we did the shoot. It was a very productive but relaxed experience. I can't wait to work with her again.
I really enjoyed working with Dorothy. She is extremely talented and wonderful to work with.
Dorothy and her team were great to work with! They are true professionals and delivered amazing photos for us. I highly recommend for anyone looking for a professional to take their photo.
Dorothy takes amazing photos! I will definitely work with her again. She has great instincts and was a pleasure to work with.
Dorothy made our proposal day very special. She did excellent work in a 1-hour time- over 1,500 pictures taken in different settings within Central Park. I highly recommend Dorothy for your photography needs.
Dorothy Shi went above and beyond and did a great job with my photographs.
Dorothy and her team were wonderful! They were a pleasure to have at our office holiday party and they captured all the best moments and laughs! I would definitely recommend and I'm looking forward to using Dorothy Shi again in the future!
Working with Dorothy Shi was a joy. She’s an absolute artist with the ability to bring out the best in you while making you feel completely at ease.
From beginning to end, Dorothy created an experience that exceeded our expectations. She was able to bring us into an environment where we felt comfortable, excited, and fulfilled. We were blown away with the quality of her work and attention to detail. Dorothy’s intuition and ability to connect brought out the best of us in our photoshoot. I would highly recommend her work to anyone! We will definitely be returning.
My girlfriend and I were looking for someone to do work/LinkedIn headshots in Manhattan. We both went to Dorothy’s studio/home on the UWS and are very pleased with the end result. It was fairly priced, efficient, no-nonsense. Exactly what I wanted. Very happy and will highly recommend her.
I loved the experience and so did my family. My kids keep asking me to go back and do another shoot. I loved the photos and Dorothy is veryyyyyy great at what she does. Will book again soon
Dorothy and her team took such amazing pictures for my wedding, I felt very comfortable with them, I was very stress out right before the ceremony but Dorothy was patient and Mark made me laugh the whole time. I love all of the pictures they took and I should treasure it for the rest of my life. Thank you for your work.
Wonderful! She really knows what she is doing. I had a great experience. Thanks again!
The experience was great. Shi was patient and assisted me to get dress and ensure i liked the photos. Great editing skills for my cheek bones.
Dorothy was a pleasure to work with. She and her partner were on site before us and stayed with us all day. We received thousands of shots of our event - it was difficult to choose the shots we wanted to retouch, there were so many great ones. She was very communicative both prior to and after the event to make sure she was on top of all the details. She's also a super nice person who I really enjoyed speaking and working with. I would recommend to others!
I am very happy with Dorothy's work. First because the pictures she took are amazing, also because it was very easy to schedule an appointment and to chat with her but mostly because even if we had a misunderstanding on the time at which we have met, Dorothy was able to transform a meeting that did not start great into an amazing and professional encounter! Life happens, what is important is to handle what comes to you nicely and do your best with every situation, as she did =)
