Commercial Portraits for Medical Professionals at New Mexico Cancer Center

Commercial Portraits for Medical Professionals at New Mexico Cancer Center

Flexibility in Making Commercial Portraits at New Mexico Cancer Center

Often times I do not know exactly what a shoot will be, even given a fairly significant shot list and description of what the client wants from the shoot. The reality on the day of in the actual location means adjusting and still getting results. Plus, I had never been in a cancer hospital before and did not know what the environments would be like. Still, in over a half dozen setups, I made commercial portraits for the client showing the entire range of the team of medical professionals there, plus some patients who consented to being in photos too! Most of the shots ended up being only two people in them, given the constraints of the spaces and the availability of staff. I even photographed a doctor again I had just weeks before photographed at an oncology conference! I enjoyed the challenge and creativity of making these commercial portraits at New Mexico Cancer Center in Albuquerque, New Mexico.

Best On Location Lawyer Headshots in Albuquerque 2023 with Nicole and Brian

Best On Location Lawyer Headshots in Albuquerque 2023 with Nicole and Brian

On location for unique lawyer headshots in Albuquerque

The lawyers of Ray Law, Brian and Nicole, met me at FatPipe ABQ for an on location headshot shoot, and also to make a better than stock image of Brian with a client. It’s funny how things in photography work, where I had not used FatPipe ABQ as a location in a couple of years, only to have three shoots there just this month! We chose a window for the background for their headshots, along with a shallow depth of field style. The result is a totally unique headshot for Nicole and Brian. Then using one of the conference rooms, I made a better than stock image so potential clients can see Brian on the Ray Law website in a real photo of him and a client. I really, really suggest removing all stock images from your website and replacing them with yourself and your team! Thank you Nicole and Brian for choosing me as your photographer!

It was a fun shoot at Peak Legal Group here in Albuquerque, New Mexico with Sheryl and Harold and their dog who made an appearance in several photos. It’s all part of making good branding photos, including your dog, your own personality, and yourself! It was a wide ranging shoot at their firm making interior photos, as well as better than stock photography of the two lawyers with a “client,” and then also studio quality headshots. You can see in the BTS shot that I can make studio quality headshots even in the tiniest of spaces! Thank you Harold and Sheryl for choosing me as your photographer.

Professional Commercial Photography for a Day Spa in Albuquerque

he whole time I was at Remedy Day Spa in Albuquerque, New Mexico making better than stock images, commercial portraits, and interior and exterior photos, I kept thinking to myself, “who knew this oasis was right in the middle of ABQ??” I met Mandy, the owner, who wanted me to capture the full range of spa services she has available, from secluded wooden barrels hot tub soaks, to professional massage, to a large yoga studio. It was one of the most wide ranging commercial photo shoots I have had. The photos feature the actual Remedy team in them, for that better than stock image photo feel because it shows the actual Remedy Day Spa team in the actual Remedy Day Spa setting. Now, all of Albuquerque can see and discover this hidden gem right in Nob Hill! Thank you Mandy for choosing me as your photographer and also to the Remedy team that did a great job in front of the lens all day. And thank you to Jessica for assisting on this, I wish I had gotten a BTS shot of you holding that huge diffuser over the hot tub!

Better Than Stock Photography Commercial Portraits for Attorneys in Albuquerque

Better than stock images for lawyers and attorneys in Albuquerque

New Mexico Legal Group invited me back to their offices here in Albuquerque, New Mexico this time to make some candids of the team for what I call better than stock photos. Why use strangers from stock images on your own website when you can show off your team in the actual office space your clients will be visiting and seeing? I think NMLG made a great choice to feature its own attorneys and staff in this series of photos to go along with the team headshots I made of everyone last year. Thank you to everyone at the team of NMLG for being great in front of the camera and for continuing to choose me as your photographer!

Now every employee of Pebble Labs has a modern, professional headshot that looks consistent with everyone else at the lab, and there is no stock photography used on their website.
