Creative Variety in Singer Headshots in Albuquerque New Mexico
Teen singer Sophia visited the JCP Home Studio in Albuquerque, New Mexico with her parents for a series of creative headshots to help promote her singing career. In a short period of time, even with numerous outfit changes, we were able to create many different headshot looks for her to use for social media, marketing, and personal branding. Sophia did great in front of the camera for not being that experienced, and it was nice chatting with her parents while MUA Samanthia kept her makeup and hair photo ready (follow Samanthia on Instagram). It was a true team effort creating these headshots!
I headed down to Socorro, New Mexico to meet Scot for an editorial photoshoot for Pulse Magazine, which is the magazine for Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center. As a nurse and alumni, he was being featured for being the first nurse anesthetist at Socorro General Hospital to live there locally in more than 40 years! I made several photos of Scot, but I should not have been suprised the one the magazine chose also had his dog, Lola, in it!
This was a return to Valley of Fires walking through a different area than three years ago (check out those photos and drone video). This time I observed how the flora of the desert struggled even more to live around and actually on the vast lava field. To highlight this struggle I converted the images to black and white for impact. On the side of a long empty, desert road, I think Valley of Fires definitely qualifies as a hidden gem of New Mexico. It offers exploring for all levels from just observing from afar and up top the vast expanse of this lava field, to walking as far as you want right through the jagged lava formations. If you really like Valley of Fires, you can even camp there. Check out the map below to visit this hidden gem of miles of lava in the middle of nowhere in New Mexico.
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!
White Sands National Park outside of Alamogordo, New Mexico is easily the most photographed natural wonder for me in the state. I have had the opportunity to visit this amazing place three times in the past seven months alone. Each time I go the views and the sands are different. This time I did not have the chance to wonder very far to some little trod on area, but I made the best of this near parking lot location by looking even more for the dance between shadow and light and the sunset. As it has been since I got it last year, the Sony 12-24mm f/2.8 G Master lens is an absolute rock star at White Sands. Which of these views is your favorite this time?
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!
