Affordable ERAS Application Headshot in NYC
Applying for residency is fast and competitive. Your ERAS headshot is part of your first impression, and programs expect a clear, professional, well-lit photo that looks like you. Our affordable ERAS application headshot in NYC is built for exactly that: simple, fast, and ERAS-compliant, without paying boutique studio rates.
At Tals Studio, our photographer, Zion Yoni Levy, works specifically with medical students, residents, and fellows. The goal is not glamour. The goal is to present you as professional, confident, and approachable — the way you want to appear to a residency director or fellowship coordinator.
Why an ERAS headshot matters
A clean ERAS photo signals preparation and maturity. It should have:
Neutral or simple background
Even lighting
Natural expression
Professional clothing
A tight crop with face and shoulders visible
This is different from a social media portrait or a personal branding shoot. It’s made for residency applications.
