Need Professional Headshots? An Englewood Nonprofit Has You Covered — For Free

ENGLEWOOD — Picture-perfect neighbors ready for their spotlight can have professional photos taken for free this weekend at a new commercial hub on the South Side. 

Made In Englewood, a design studio, will host Faces of Englewood, offering free professional headshot photography and printing services 2-6 p.m. Saturday at E.G. Woode, 1122 W. 63rd St. 

Neighbors and business owners will receive digital and printed copies of their photos and makeup services for free, according to an Instagram post.

Made In Englewood is one of several businesses using the E.G. Woode commercial hub, a 4,000-square-foot retail shop that opened last month.

Powell’s Barbershop, Momentum Coffe, Marie|Wesley and Beehyyve, a design firm with co-working areas, are minority-owned businesses also housed in the hub. 

Made In Englewood, in partnership with Gertie Chicago, was a recipient of the Chicago Community Fund grant in July for its work toward equitable impact in the community. Grant funds were used for the photo opportunity.
