Standing out on LinkedIn with a vivid colorful background
As expected, once clients saw the first examples of the new vivid color backgrounds I am offering here at the JCP Home Studio in Albuquerque, New Mexico, they want them too! Christian already has his new, cool green backgroundheadshot up on his LinkedIn profile. We started out making a blue background headshot to match the first shirt he was wearing. He then wanted a three-quarter headshot view for a more casual, relaxed look as he donned a t-shirt for the shot. Thank you Christian for choosing me as your headshot photographer!
Sunrise commercial real estate shoot in Albuquerque
In order to beat the customer rush, I had to wake up before sunrise to get to this brand new Mister Car Wash location in Albuquerque, New Mexico for a commercial real estate photo shoot. I took the Sony 12-24mm f/2.8 G Master lens all around the car wash looking for unique views like the one above, in addition to more traditional shots showing the building and branding. I also used the sunrise itself in shots to add some visual flare. Thank you to the team at Mister Car Wash for choosing me as the commercial real estate photographer for this new location.
Headshots in vibrant colors now available in Albuquerque
Here at Jason Collin Photography I am always looking to improve the headshots I make for clients with both technique and photography gear. The latest addition to headshot sessions is color! Thao visited the JCP Home Studio in Albuquerque, New Mexico for headshots and told me that the logo color for her company was purple. Using the new gels I got, I put on a purple one and, voila, a white background becomes purple! I am super excited to be able to start offering clients background colors to match their logos, brands, and personality. Of course white, black, and gray are still available too! Thank you Thao for being a great first colorful background headshot client!
Professional Commercial Portraits along the Rio Grande in Corrales
I was already back on location doing more commercial portrait photography for awesome new client Precision Surveys, Inc, (see first shoot), this time in the Bosque area of Corrales, New Mexico right on the banks of the Rio Grande River. I had never been to this area of the Bosque before, and have since already been back for a personal day out enjoying this rather different stretch with more trees, higher view points, and more areas to access the river itself. Precision Surveys needed just one location for this shoot, so after a bit of trekking with the photo gear and the survey gear, we found this spot that had a view of the river and the Sandia Mountains in the background. Thank you once again to the crew who were great in front of the camera and to Larry for choosing me again as his company’s photographer.
Rural Land Drone Video and Photography now available for Colorado
Already the most prolific rural land real estate photographer and drone pilot in New Mexico, I am now offering my photography and drone services in southern Colorado. This expansion recently took me to Conejos County near La Jara and Alamosa. Hidden down nearly 10 miles of gravel road, and then hidden further in a small hamlet bordered by a hidden creek itself, this property was one of the most lush I have photographed for Hemingway Land (and also the first time I got bit my mosquitos in 2+ years!). This is a high value property and the client wanted the works: 4k drone video, aerial drone photos, and still photos in both daylight and at sunset. The drone video I made of this property opens with one of the single best clips I have ever made for any type of drone video starting at the creek and flying backwards between trees to reveal the mountains in the distance. My goal is to top each video, each shoot I made before and my effort for this property is evidence of that.
More and more legal professionals are choosing Jason Collin Photography for modern headshots. McKenzie visited the JCP Home Studio needing a headshot for her new position with New Mexico Legal Group. They had an established style on their website already, but we had a little bit of freedom to improve on that headshot style, if I do say so msyelf! I produced a series of headshots to fit the layout on the team page for New Mexico Legal Group on a few different levels of gray background. McKenzie was consistently great in front of the camera as I adjust lighting to make he background darker or lighter gray. Thank you McKenzie for choosing me as your headshot photographer!
Drone video and photography for asphalt marketing content in Rio Rancho
Sunland Asphalt has become a new, and already returning, drone video and photography client where I go out and get “before and after” drone content of huge parking lots they have resurfaced. This time I went to a school in Rio Rancho to get drone video and aerial photos of the crew in action doing the resurfacing. It is always a challenge flying over live action where I do not know what is going to happen next and there are trees and light poles all around. I have to admit, my instincts were uncanny, or I just got super lucky, to often have the drone in the right place at the right time to capture the action just as it happens! The “after” drone content was much easier to get of course, as I just went on an evening near sunset time to get glamour shots of the finished parking lot. I really cannot believe how much of a difference a resurfaced parking lot makes aesthetically! Thank you Sunland for choosing me as your drone pilot and I have a new appreciation for the beauty of the parking lot the crew created.
