Headshots for Heroes - Free Headshots for Veterans on Veterans Day
Advertisement
This Veterans Day, I’m opening up my new studio in Ybor City to give back to the men and women who’ve served our country.
Through my Headshots for Heroes initiative, I’m offering completely free professional headshots to all active-duty military, guard, reserves, and veterans.
My dad is a Vietnam veteran, and both of my grandfathers served in World War II. I didn’t serve myself, but I have immense respect and gratitude for everyone who put on the uniform. Whether you need a fresh photo for LinkedIn, a resume, or a company website, I want to make sure you have an image that represents you at your best.
📅 When: Wednesday, November 11 (Veterans Day)
🕙 Time: 9:00 AM – 1:00 PM
📍 Where: Headshots by James Connell
1624 E. 7th Ave, Suite 237, Tampa, FL 33605
(Inside the Kress Contemporary building, next to the Florida Museum of Photographic Arts)
How it works:
You’ll spend about 5–7 minutes in front of the camera. Don’t worry about posing or what to do with your hands—that’s my job. I’ll coach you through the whole thing.
We review the shots live on a 55-inch screen as we shoot so you know you’re getting one you actually like.
You pick your favorite shot, I’ll retouch it, and you’ll get your final image delivered the very same day.
If interested, please sign up here as I would like to have an accurate headcount. Unfortunately I am unable to accommodate walk-ins for this event.

When you get to the building, just text or call me at 813-625-8168 and I’ll come downstairs to let you in and walk you up. For parking, the Centro Ybor Garage is right around the corner, and Ybor Lot 3 & Lot 5 both offer parking for 50 cents!
Zero sales pitch, no strings attached. Just my way of saying thank you for your service to our country. Hope to see you there!
