Branding Headshots for a Financial Advisor in Pacific Grove California with Chris

Headshots and Branding Photos both in Studio and Out on Location in Pacific Grove for a financial advisor

Chris contacted me about making headshots and personal branding photos for him here in Pacific Grove discussing an in studio shoot and maybe out on location too. After talking, he decided on both so after beginning in studio shooting on my new, and increasingly popular, “thunder gray” background, I took a portable set of lighting with me helped by assistant Melissa to Lover’s Point Park for some ocean background shots. In a shoot just an hour long, I made in total 11 headshots and branding photos for Chris both in studio, as well as out on location! It was a very creative and efficient shoot not taking up a lot the client’s time. Of course Chris was great in front of the camera so that helped too! Check out his website for a local financial advisor. Thank you Chris for choosing me as your headshot and personal branding photographer!

Professional Photographer for Airbnb and Vacation Rental Properties in Pebble Beach Carmel Monterey and Pacific Grove

Professional Airbnb Photographer available right here in Pebble Beach Carmel Monterey and Pacific Grove

Have you been wanting a way to make your Airbnb or vacation rental property stand out? Having professional photos made is the best way to stand out from all the other local listings that use merely unedited cell phone photos.

Experience matters when photographing an Airbnb

I am an experienced Airbnb and vacation rental property photographer, which is different than shooting a house for residential sale. I shoot an Airbnb and vacation listing differently, specifically for appealing to Airbnb guests. I know what to look for as I have been staying at Airbnbs for over 10 years myself! I am available right here based in Pacific Grove and serving the Pebble Beach, Monterey, Carmel, and Big Sur areas.

Modern Headshots for young professional in Pacific Grove and Monterey California

First headshot shoot in the new Pacific Grove photo studio!!

When I got a call from Ashley about a headshot session within a couple of days, normally I would say yes, no problem. But! I had just started to move into a new photo studio here in Pacific Grove, California. I did have all the lighting and equipment needed to make a headshot already in the studio, but also a ton of other stuff too scattered all over the place. So I said as long as you do not mind a bit of a mess, and the smell of fresh paint, then I am available. As you can see, you would never know what things were like by seeing the end result of Ashley’s headshots! Be sure and check out the BTS shot below to see what it looked like outside of the camera’s view. Thank you Ashley for your patience and being a great first client in my new studio!

Wine Bottle Product Photography in Monterey and Pacific Grove with Tamayo Wine

Making product photography shots of wine bottles in Pacific Grove

Jeff of Tamayo Wines brought several bottles of wine to my photo studio here in Pacific Grove, California to have professional product photos made for use on his website. I used a light cone with two continues lights and shot on a reflective black acrylic base, even though the client wanted the photos edited and delivered on just a transparent background. These kinds of product shoots are always a fun challenge to aim for as much consistency as possible between bottle shots, allowing for variation in bottle size and glass color. Thank you Jeff for choosing me as your product photographer!
