Personality Showcasing Actor Headshots in Albuquerque
More and more actors are choosing Jason Collin Photography for their headshots in Albuquerque. Erika visited the JCP Home Studio for a series of actor headshots showcasing her range of personality, including neutral, which her agent requested specifically! She had worked in the medical field and got burnt out and is now looking to try new things. The flexibility I offer in studio to change backgrounds, lighting, and by shooting tethered, allows clients like Erika to get a wide range of headshots often in just a 30 minute session. This was a really fun headshot session and Erika even played her own music to create the vibe for the shoot that resulted in these images. Thank you Erika for choosing me as your headshot photographer and for the 5-star review!
In studio personal branding session with an Albuquerque attorney
A great choice I am now offering clients are branding photo shoots at YDS Studio in Nob Hill. That is where I met David, an attorney, who wanting a variety of branding photos from seated to standing. Using the great new physical backgrounds at YDS Studio I was able to make the kinds of branding photos David was looking for. With the huge windows on one side of the studio, I was even able to use natural light for some of these photos. David was great in front of the camera and open to using all the studio space had to offer. Plus, I offer tethered shooting in studio so he could see the results instantly on a 16” screen. Thank you David for choosing me as your photographer!
The right light to make the best sculpture photographs in ABQ
It was great to have Sharon back in the JCP Home Studio with two more of her sculptures. I was surprised our first shoot was already over 1.5 yers ago! Last time we used a white seamless background, but Sharon wanted something this time for the limestone fox and marble birds. I suggested using one of my stone surface Duo Boards with just a black V-flat background. A little bit of tweaking of the light, adding a reflector, and voila, I was able to produce the high impact sculpture photos below (see the BTS shot for how I set things up). Shooting tethered really help me show Sharon how the light wrapped her sculpture in real time, so we could add some fill light with a reflector when needed for certain views of the sculptures. I of course welcome artist input during the entire shoot, as Sharon knows the views of her sculptures the best! Thank you Sharon for continuing to choose me as the photographer for your fantastic artwork!
Accurate color with no glare for product photography in Albuquerque
The variety of products I have photographed this year at the JCP Home Studio in Albuquerque, New Mexico continues to grow with the addition of these religious icons made at a nearby monastery in the east mountains. Father Seraphim along with the actual artist from the monastery who painted the icons, assisted in the shoot (see the BTS below). I was shooting tethered so they could see the photos live as they took them to make sure there was no glare and that the colors were being represented accurately. Other than needing a bit of contrast adjustment, the results made right in camera were very accurate to the icons themselves. As usual, it was a great team effort on this product photography photo shoot and once we got things dialed in, in less than an hour I photographed more than 18 icons. Thank you Father Seraphim for choosing me as your photographer!
Powder Explosion for Stunning Product Shots in Albuquerque
Regular readers of this site might remember I recently did a tarot card product shoot for Darshanie of Lovely Om. As soon as I saw her tarot cards I knew they were the perfect subject to use to try out my first powder explosion product shot. I needed a couple things I did not have on hand to make this shot, including a Duo Board and the actual powder (check out the how-to video below for where and what products to get from Evan Naka). Once everything is setup with lighting, the powder, etc (see BTS shot below), getting the powder explosion shot itself is just a matter of putting enough powder on the board, and whacking the board hard enough to get enough explosion. It only took a few tries to get the results you see in this blog post. Thank you to Jessica for assisting on this shoot and doing the whacking!
