DC's most trusted studio for MEDICAL RESIDENCY APPLICATION PHOTOsERAS Application Photos in Washington, DC
Program directors see your ERAS® headshot before they read your application. Make it count—look sharp, professional, fully compliant—and unmistakably you.
WHY YOUR ERAS PHOTO MATTERSHeadshotDC has photographed thousands of medical students, residents, and fellows for ERAS, VSAS, ADEA, and fellowship applications.
We know the specs cold: correct dimensions, proper background, file format, and the lighting that holds up when your photo is resized for a program's review portal.
You won't be guessing whether your photo meets requirements—it will.
Programs use ERAS photos to put a face to a name before interviews are even scheduled. A photo that looks unprofessional, poorly lit, or taken on a phone can create an impression you didn't intend—and in a competitive applicant pool, details matter.
The HeadshotDC studio is located in Washington, DC and serves students from GW School of Medicine, Georgetown School of Medicine, Howard University College of Medicine, and programs across the DMV.
Sessions are efficient—most clients are in and out in under 30 minutes—and your photo is delivered within 24 to 48 hours, ready to upload directly to your application. Book your ERAS session now →
