Published & Praised — International Work That Lasts

He was Rudy Steiner in The Book Thief.
I first saw him on the screen — big, cinematic, unforgettable.
Years later, he walked into my 805 set.

Holy…

We made portraits that day.
Not the kind you force. The kind you let happen.
Clean. Striking. Honest.

the reach

A few days later, Nico posted them to Instagram.
My phone lit up for days — messages, notifications, calls.
That’s what happens when the right face meets the right frame.

One of those images still lives on his official German agency’s website — credited to Robin Godfrey.
That kind of permanence doesn’t happen by accident.

“The photos are magnificent. You are an excellent photographer. I would like to thank you warmly… It’s a pity you live so far away. Our agents in Munich and Los Angeles will also be glad.”
Heike Liersch, mother of Nico Liersch

the moment

No script. No performance.
Just quiet. Just presence.

He let me see him.
And I kept photographing,
because he let me. ❤️

FACES

Your headshot isn’t just a photo—
It’s strategy. Influence. A power move.

From LA energy to SLO serenity—team portraits with soul.

It’s your first impression before you say a word.
Your digital handshake.
The moment your audience decides if you’re the one they need.

I photograph faces of power.
Faces of creativity.
Faces that tell a story.

Whether you’re a CEO commanding the boardroom, a realtor building trust, a musician making waves, an actor chasing the next role, or an entrepreneur rewriting the rules—
this isn’t about looking good.
It’s about showing up.
Owning your space.
Controlling the narrative.

A great headshot isn’t just for LinkedIn.
It’s your secret weapon—
A tool that builds credibility, shapes perception, and creates real connection.

I shoot entirely on location—
because your career isn’t built in a studio,
and your headshot shouldn’t be either.

Confidence. Presence. Power.
Approachability. Influence. Connection.
Elegance. Authenticity. Leadership. Visibility.

Your success isn’t accidental.
Your headshot shouldn’t be either.

Collaborative portraits for teams & communities—real personalities, real connections.”

Your Face…

Your Brand…

Your Power...

Let’s make it happen.

Working with Robin was an awesome experience. She went out of her way to make me feel relaxed, and she gave me gentle coaching so we could get the best results. When it comes to photography she’s a technical wizard, but more important than that, she has the perfect personality for the position.

I needed an author photo for an upcoming book and she totally nailed the vibe I was hoping for – a black & white headshot that skewed more toward “moody” than “buttoned down.” (Basically, I wanted the polar opposite of a typical corporate headshot. Imagine Yousef Karsh on steroids, but from a female perspective and working with a command of modern tools.) She hit it out of the park, as far as I’m concerned. Just wonderful.

I recently had my headshot done with Robin Godfrey and the experience from start to finish was amazing! Her photography is powerful and beautiful, and the set up was top notch. She has a unique eye for lighting, and is so welcoming and fun to work with. It's easy to get excited about the result when you see how much excitement and passion she is putting into every shot. She is such an amazing resource for Arroyo Grande and the entire central coast, and I would highly recommend her for any senior portrait, actor headshot, business shoot.
