Rolex Watch Professional Product Photography in Albuquerque for Crown Jewelry

November 10, 2021 in Commercial

Getting creative photographing Rolex watches!

It was great working with new client Crown Jewels and Coin here at the JCP Home Studio in Albuquerque, New Mexico, making a series of photos of Rolex watches that will be featured in their new television commercial! Using a reflective acrylic product background for these shots, and my Sony 90mm f/2.8 macro lens, we put the watches in various positions and I even suggested having a hand model type shot. This was easily my most valuable product photography shoot to date!

High impact lawyer headshots in Albuquerque going on a billboard

More and more lawyers and attorneys in Albuquerque are choosing Jason Collin Photography for headshots because I welcome creative input from the clients, and create headshots that match their vision, and when needed or wanted, I offer my own creative ideas to help make high impact headshots. Such was the case with lawyer Blake Dugger who visited the JCP Home Studio wanting a black background and lighting that was dramatic. So in addition to my usual beauty dish style lighting, I also used butterfly lighting and for the last shot, a single light to have more shadow in the headshot for maximum dramatic visual appeal. Thank you Blake for your ideas and being so great in front of the camera and look for these images on a billboard in New Mexico soon!

Luxury Real Estate Photography on a tight deadline in Albuquerque

This was my first time to work with Nick Caffey of Cottonwood Realty who called me with a short notice request to photograph a luxury real estate listing on La Luz Trail NE right in the very foot of the Sandia Mountains (check out the actual property listing if you are interested). He told me it was going to be a $1.5 million dollar listing, and that he needed it photographed within 3 days! I had a very tight schedule, and was not even in Albuquerque at the time of his text, and was leaving Albuquerque yet again for more out of town photo work 3 days after I got back. However, I was able to make time and get all the photography and drone content done for Nick in time for his listing date (save for twilight shots due to weather). The owners of the house helped make this possible too by having the house ready and looked like it was staged professionally. Thank you Nick for choosing me as your luxury home real estate photographer! I hope this listing sells quickly and I look forward to the next luxury property shoot with you.

High impact actor portfolio headshots in Albuquerque

George visited the JCP Home Studio in Albuquerque, New Mexico with a definite vision for the actor headshots he wanted. He had been growing out his beard, brought props, and was ready to go for his western cowboy themed actor headshot photo session. We settled on a gray background as the most complimentary for the photos, I put on the camera my brand new Sony 50mm f/1.2 G Master lens, and then George did the rest. Through several wardrobe changes, a couple of lighting changes, and even getting a saddle into the action, we had a very creative headshot session and George now has the photos he needs to land western and cowboy roles. Thank you George for choosing me as your headshot photographer for such a fun, and creative photoshoot!

Friendly Headshots for Real Estate Agents in Albuquerque

The real estate agent and real estate broker competition in Albuquerque, New Mexico is fierce. How can you expect to compete without first having a modern headshot which is very likely the first impression potential buyers and sellers have of you? Heidi knows how important it is to have a modern and friendly headshot to show her clients how professional she is. It was great to have Heidi visit the JCP Home Studio for her headshot session. Even with the most busy of schedules, real estate headshots can often take up less than 15 minutes of your time. I know Heidi’s time is valuable, so not only did she get great headshots, the session was fast and the edited headshots were in her inbox the same day! Thank you Heidi for choosing me as your real estate headshot photographer!

Larry Bell Taos New Mexico Artist Commercial Portraits

Larry Bell and his art and his guitars

Driving up to Taos, New Mexico for a commercial portrait shoot on my second assignment (see the first) for an industry magazine, I had no idea that I would be photographing someone among his hundreds of accosting 12-string guitars. That is exactly the background I found myself in at the Larry Bell Studio photographing the famous Taos artist, Larry Bell. We went around to various places in his studio, including the 1950s sci-fi looking high vacuum device he has for creating his glassworks. He chose a special guitar from his collection for one of his commercial portraits. He bough the guitar decades ago for just a few dollars. He has subsequently spent thousands restoring it! Thank you Larry for showing me around your studio!

Impressive modern headshots for med school in Albuquerque

Looking to impress on his med school application, Hesham visited the JCP Home Studio in Albuquerque, New Mexico in a sharp blue suit with a perfectly tied tie. We shot on a clean white background which is my default suggestion when a client is looking for a modern headshot. Hesham was great in front of the camera, so it took up very little of his time in his busy schedule, and the edited headshots were delivered less than two hours after our headshot shoot! Thank you Hesham for choosing me as your headshot photographer and good luck on your med school application!
