Hollywood photographer and former international model. My gift is seeing the beauty in everyone โ€” and knowing how to bring it out through the lens.

๐Ÿ“ธ You Don't Need a Better Camera. You Need Better Direction.
Most people think they aren't photogenic. After more than 30 years behind the camera, I can tell you that's almost never true. What people really need is someone who knows how to guide them. The right light.The right angle.The right expression.The confidence to relax and be themselves. That's exactly what I do. Using just your phone, natural window light, and a live session, I'll coach you every step of the way to create a headshot you'll be proud to share. โœจ No studio. โœจ No expensive equipment. โœจ Just a professional image that looks like youโ€”at your very best. Your next opportunity could begin with one great photo. ๐Ÿ“ธ Ready to elevate your image? Send me a message or comment HEADSHOT below, and let's create something amazing together.

๐Ÿ“ธ She cried when she saw her photos.
Not because something was wrong. Because for the first time in her life, she looked exactly like who she actually is. That's what happens in a remote headshot session with me. No studio. No expensive camera. No traveling anywhere. Just your phone, your window, and 30 minutes with a Hollywood photographer who has spent 30+ years finding the beauty in people and bringing it out. I have 5 spots open for this week. Here's how it works as a community member: ๐Ÿ“Œ $67 Skool Owners Forever Price โ€” One session, locked in for life at this rate. Never goes up. This is your "I want to try it" option. ๐Ÿ“Œ $197 Yearly โ€” Two full sessions, 6 months apart. Perfect if your brand, role, or look changes through the year. Best value if you're building a professional presence. ๐Ÿ“Œ $50/Month โ€” Fresh headshots every single month. For entrepreneurs, creators, and anyone who shows up online consistently and needs their photos to keep up. Outside this community? Sessions are $197 for one. You're getting this because you're here. Every session includes: โœจ Live direction โ€” I tell you exactly what to do โœจ Hollywood posing, angles & lighting โœจ Same-day delivery โœจ Photos you'll actually use ๐Ÿ‘‡ Grab one of the 5 remaining spots this week: calendly.com/photographybycristal-la/30min USE CODE HEADSHOTS I have 50+ before-and-afters from people just like you who said "someday" โ€” and then did it โ€” and couldn't believe what they saw. Someday is this week. โ€” Cristal ๐Ÿ“ธ Photography by Cristal

@Heather Boers Absolutely! ๐Ÿ’› One great photograph can go a very long way these days. A strong foundational image can be used for your profile picture, website, social media, speaking engagements, podcasts, marketing materials, email signatures, press features, and so much more. You can create content however you want, but having a professional image that truly represents you makes everything easier. It's often the first impression people have of you and your brand. ๐Ÿ“ธโœจ

You deserve to make money; you just have to look good first on screen. You just don't know how yet, but we're going to change that so come and learn. The Art of Going Live @Lion Fludd

Yes! @Lion Fludd and @Heather Boers I am learning so much from this Skool community!
We're putting dads in the spotlight today... but why does it have to end with one day?
We're celebrating the the fixers, drivers, protectors and the coaches and encouragers! The dads building families, businesses and dreams! The dads everyone counts on. And as I was thinking about Father's Day today, I realized... We spend a lot of time celebrating people for a day. Then life moves on. The celebrations end. The spotlight fades. But the impact they make doesn't. Neither do the businesses they're building or the communities they're leading. Maybe that's why visibility matters so much. Not because everyone needs attention...but because good work deserves to be seen. So in honor of Father's Day, we are adding a Spotlight Lab bonus through Monday night. The Spotlight Lab was created to help your visibility keep working long after you hit "post." ๐—œ๐—ป๐˜€๐—ถ๐—ฑ๐—ฒ ๐˜†๐—ผ๐˜‚'๐—น๐—น ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐—ฐ๐—ฒ๐—ถ๐˜ƒ๐—ฒ: โœจ A 30-minute creative visibility session โœจ A 24-hour pinned post inside The Directory โœจ 3 done-for-you Pinterest visibility assets ๐—”๐—ป๐—ฑ ๐˜๐—ต๐—ฟ๐—ผ๐˜‚๐—ด๐—ต ๐— ๐—ผ๐—ป๐—ฑ๐—ฎ๐˜† at Midnight CST, you'll also receive: โœจ An additional 24-hour pinned post credit to use anytime within the next 3 months Because every dad deserves the spotlight... and the things you're building deserve more than one day in it. ๐Ÿ’™ Celebrating dads today. Supporting visibility for everyone! You don't have to be a dad to take advantage of the Father's Day Spotlight bonus. ๐Ÿ˜‰
