The ERAS application gives program directors one photograph of you. We help medical students and residents get that one image right, with calm, even lighting, a neutral expression that reads as confident, and a clean professional backdrop—nothing in the frame that distracts from your face. We are familiar with the photo specifications used by ERAS and can deliver files sized to meet the standard requirements, alongside high-resolution copies you can use anywhere else. Most ERAS sessions take 30 to 60 minutes. You will see your photos on a large monitor during the session, so you leave knowing exactly which image you are submitting—no second-guessing later. Same-day turnaround is available when an application deadline is close. Wear what you would wear to interview day: a solid-color suit jacket or blouse, minimal accessories, hair off your face.

"I had a great experience with Andrew. As soon as I booked the appointment, he called me to align on my needs and expectations. During the photo shoot, he made me feel at ease and he took a lot of really good shots. It was hard to choose just a few. The editing process was really quick and even when I requested additional adjustments, he did them right away and made sure I was happy with the results. I'd highly recommend Andrew!"
