Modern Headshot Photography for Business Professionals in the Monterey area with Robert

Modern business studio headshots available right here in Pacific Grove

Many of my headshot clients are like Robert. They just need an updated headshot for their new company and are happy with the two headshots including in the starting studio headshot package I offer. It also often takes up less than 15 minutes of their time, so they are in and out not taking up much of their day. Because I have refined my technique, and have years of experience, and have setup my photography studio right here in Pacific Grove to be ideal for headshots, there is no compromise on the quality of headshots I make for busy clients. Also, since I shoot tethered and mirror the photos to a 43” 4K TV, Robert was able to see and approve his headshots in real time, so he could see exactly what he was getting. Thank you Robert for choosing me as your headshot photographer!

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!
