Trio of Start Up Company Headshots in Albuquerque New Mexico

Headshots for my networking friend

I met Adam a while back at an event for the Albuquerque Hispano Chamber of Commerce. We stayed in touch via email, and continued to run into each other at other Chamber events and at 1 Million Cups ABQ too. It was finally a good time for him to visit the JCP Home Studio and bring his two start up partners Ron and Michael. They wanted some uniformity to the headshots in terms of feel, look, and smile, while of course still making each person show their own personality. I think we were successful in getting three headshots that look alike in general, but have individuality to them as well!

Second Sneak Preview of One of Many Project

A favorite photo

This is a second sneak preview of the 10 women I photographed at the JCP Home Studio in Albuquerque, New Mexico for the We Rise organization that will be featured in the One Of Many photography exhibition at the KD Neeley Gallery on October 05, 2018. I will be one of five photographers featured at the event which you can find out more info about at this Facebook event page. The photo above is my personal favorite from the shoot. I chose a tight crop to really focus in on the emotion in the eyes. Shooting with my new Tamron 90mm f/2.8 Macro SP lens allowed me to focus very closely and get extreme detail. Be sure and mark your calendars for the evening of October 5th to come out and support this cause and see these images as large prints.

Getting Fit & Photography

Networking friend Jennifer has been coming to the JCP Home Studio which doubles as a workout space the past couple of Fridays for a dose of Insanity Max 30 with me and Jessica. After one such workout, I setup a few lights to have fun with some fitness photos. They each picked up a dumbbell and showed their strength!

A very special photoshoot for We Rise & One Of Many

A recent Saturday was spent photographing ten women here at the JCP Home Studio in Albuquerque, New Mexico for an upcoming social awareness fundraising event on October 5, 2018 at the KD Neeley Gallery. The organization is called We Rise and this particular photo shoot was for a photo exhibition called One Of Many. Find out more information on the Facebook event page. This is a sneak preview with one of the women from that day. Between now and the event I will be posting more sneak previews. The theme of the photo shoot was to focus tightly on the eyes, which were done by a make-up artist. I used my brand new Tamron 90mm f/2.8 Macro SP lens to capture the emotion in the eye and the detail in the make-up along with a clamshell / beauty dish lighting setup.

Headshots for Office Staff at Express in Albuquerque New Mexico

June 28, 2018 in Commercial, Portrait

I had not done an on-location headshot shoot for the staff of an office in quite some time because all my recent clients have been wanting to come to the JCP Home Studio here in Albuquerque, New Mexico. So last week I loaded up all my mobile studio gear onto my Rock N Roller multi-cart (model R10 if you wanted to know) and headed to Express Professionals near Uptown. I had met one of their staff, Ruby, at a networking event.

Albuquerque Couple Headshots for Business with Heather & Cameron

June 20, 2018 in Commercial, Portrait

I met Heather at a marketing seminar put on by good friend Roger of Beacon Marketing. She contacted me about having headshots made, but for couples, and that she really liked the black background of some of my other headshots. The black background is getting very popular with clients! She owns W2 Welding with Cameron. When photographing a couple who work together and have a personal relationship, I try to portray both in a single photo. That means having some physical contact, but keeping the pose looking a bit formal and with a touch of, "we get things done, together!" I think we were successful in conveying that with the photos we made in the JCP Home Studio here in Albuquerque, New Mexico!

Actor Headshots in Albuquerque New Mexico with Brandon

June 13, 2018 in Commercial, Portrait

Brandon called me up to talk about having headshots made for his budding acting career. I was very flattered to learn he would be coming all the way from Colorado and chose me out of all headshot photographers in Albuquerque! He wanted a proper, full-on headshot shoot with a MUA (makeup artist) present and multiple outfit changes. This is the kind of headshot shoot I will be doing more as I want to offer clients a high end experience like you get in New York or L.A. right here in Albuquerque.
