Teen Actors choose Jason Collin Photography in Albuquerque
As more actors choose Jason Collin Photography for high impact headshots, more actors are referring other actors to visit the JCP Home Studio. Such was the case of Audrey referring Avery. Thank you Audrey! Teen actor Avery was getting professional headshots for the first time, so I was happy to help her find her own style and look for her headshots. She came with her grandmother who also helped her choose the very best of the headshots we made during the session. It was a team effort!
More and more clients are visiting the JCP Home Studio in Albuquerque, New Mexico wanting headshots for LinkedIn. That is what brought Eda, a medical professional, in for her headshot session. We worked with variations on a gray background and even though a similar looking pose to frame right, as I tell clients, headshot photography is a subtle art so just a slightly different pose and a small change in lighting result in two distinct headshots. Thank you Eda for choosing me as your headshot photographer!
On Location in Nambe and Santa Fe with the Precision Survey Crew
Fantastic new client Precision Surveys, Inc has already had me all over the area between Rio Rancho and Nambe for a series of on location commercial portrait shoots of the PSI crew in action. Working for Larry and his crew was a lot of fun, and some of the crew even stepped in to help as photographer’s assistants! They told me that the mesa you can see above, is where Curley (spoilers) died in the movie City Slickers. You do not often get interesting movie trivia like that on a photo shoot! This on location photo shoot was a lot of fun and thank you to Larry for choosing me as your photographer and to the crew for being great both in front of and behind the camera!
Now one of my most longtime clients, Tavis of Morrison Outdoors keeps creating outstanding sleeping bags for kids in ever more vibrant colors! Last month he sent me an orange sleeping bag, and now a cool purple one. My sleeping bag as a kid never looked like this! As a professional product photographer in Albuquerque, New Mexico, one of my main goals is to deliver consistent results for clients, even over years of shooting the same product. For example, while shooting this new purple sleeping bag for Tavis, I had on screen the last orange sleeping bag shoot so I could as exactly as possible recreate each and every shot from lighting to the composition angle. Thank you Tavis for continuing to choose me as your product photographer and I am very glad to be a small part of the Morrison Outdoors family!
Well, somehow I have made it 12 years as a full-time professional photographer. Like most businesses, it has not been a smooth, linear progression going ever upward, but rather a roller coaster. Jason Collin Photography as an official licensed business started in June 2009. However, I was first paid for photography in 2008 when I still lived in Tokyo, Japan. In 2009, having returned to Florida, circumstances convinced me I needed to create my own job, and I made the bold leap into being a full-time photographer immediately, no keeping a part-time job or anything.
More and more actors are moving to Albuquerque, New Mexico, and more and more actors are choosing Jason Collin Photography for their headshots. I met Andy in a favorite downtown ABQ spot for an on location headshot session on a variety of dynamic backgrounds. Andy wanted headshots that really accentuated his facial expressions, so I did a lot of shooting with my Sigma 50mm f/1.4 ART lens to really bring the DoF onto his face and eyes in particular. These are his two favorites from our session. Thank you Andy for choosing me as your headshot photographer!
Amazing Library Residential Real Estate Photography in Albuquerque
You never know what you may find when making professional real estate photos in Albuquerque, New Mexico. At this Ridgecrest neighborhood home, the client told me there was a library to photograph at the end. I expected a regular-sized room with a lot of bookshelves. What it was in reality, you can see above and below. What an amazing private library in a residential home right here in ABQ!
