Modern headshot of an entrepreneur man in Honolulu, captured by Oahu headshot photographer specializing in professional headshots for business leaders

“I was blown away after receiving my proof gallery from Mike. The images he took looked like a magazine cover. I searched many photographers online but his style is unmatched.”

Jentry

Professional outdoor headshot of a corporate executive in Hawaii, captured by Honolulu headshot photographer for business professionals.

“I found Mike Vidales Headshot Photography on Yelp, and am so happy I did. I took one look at his headshot portfolio and had a good feeling he'd be the best fit.

I booked a last-minute appointment, and from start to finish, Mike was professional, kind and easy going! He took the time to understand what I wanted to convey through photos, and he put my nervousness at ease. He scouted the environment for the best setting, and made it fun. He turned around proofs and final headshots within the weekend, to make a Monday deadline. Fantastic!

Mike is your go-to person for professional photography!”
