Professional ERAS Residency Application Headshots
Your ERAS headshot is often the first impression residency program directors have of you. While it won't determine whether you're offered an interview, it does help communicate professionalism, confidence, and attention to detail.
At Todd Dring Photography, we specialize in creating polished, natural-looking ERAS residency headshots that meet current application requirements while helping you look approachable and confident. Every session includes professional lighting, expert posing guidance, and natural retouching so your final image looks like the best version of you—not an overly edited version.
Whether you're applying to residency programs in Maryland or across the country, we'll help you create a headshot you can submit with confidence.
