A New Jersey executive wanted to create an image library of headshots and portraits for his company website.

We decided to produce corporate headshots against both white and gray backgrounds. Then we photographed some environmental portraits using the office as the background. We set up situations with the executives talking with colleagues in his office, recording a podcast, and speaking to a group of people.

A few times a year I photograph corporate headshots for a financial services firm. I photograph new employees and people who want to refresh their previous headshot.

The company asks me to shoot wide vertical portrait that can be cropped to a tight headshot if necessary. Their office is very bright and modern so it makes a great background. We usually shoot portraits of each person in two or three locations around the office then each person picks their favorite for the company website.

A central New Jersey-based construction company asked us to come to their office for new headshots, portraits, and group photos.

Since the staff is usually out at construction sites, we created an online scheduling calendar so each person could pick a convenient time for their headshots.

We photographed each person against a white background for their corporate headshot, a wider portrait with the out-of-focus office as the background, and a variety of group photos with their colleagues.

One of my regular clients, a very large healthcare organization, asked about photographing an event in Essex County.

The event photography requirements were a large group photo, photos of each vendor table, and general candid event photography.

Luckily, there was a balcony on the second floor of the building, so I was able to squeeze everyone into the huge group photo.

For the candid event photos, I tried to capture a bit of emotion, so I kept my eyes open and camera ready.

I’m fortunate to photograph for Seton Hall University regularly. Many of the photos are portraits featured in various publications.

This was a cover photo shoot for the university’s magazine. That means a vertical photo with room left for the masthead and other text.

A New Jersey fitness center contacted us about new business headshots and marketing photos.

For the headshots, they wanted to use the out-of-focus gym as the background. We also photographed group photos of their trainers and photos of the trainers working with members.

Not only was it a very successful photo shoot, but we finished quickly, so we didn’t interfere with the customers using the gym.

We photograph headshots for a New Jersey law firm on-site at their office a few times a year. We photograph each new associate and also anyone who wants to refresh their photo.

We provide an online calendar so each person can pick a convenient time for their headshot. Each person receives a reminder 24 hours before their headshot session.

To match the firm’s website design, we shoot a wide horizontal frame with a white background.

We bring a laptop onsite so each person can pick their favorite headshot onsite. The headshots receive custom retouching so everyone looks their best.

I often photograph doctors who are redesigning their websites. We usually start with headshots of each doctor and other healthcare practitioners.

We then photograph the doctors in exam rooms interacting with patients, and also photos of them collaborating with each other around the office.

This week we photographed 60 corporate headshots for a New Jersey business at their headquarters building. The headshots were taken during the breaks between conference sessions. We also photographed headshots during the lunch break.

We provided an online schedule so each person could select a convenient time slot.

Last week we created new corporate headshots for a business at their facility in Union County, New Jersey.

The company was trying to match the background of their existing corporate headshots so we were able to create a new dark gray background digitally. 

Rutgers RWJ Medical School, one of our regular clients, needed new marketing photos so we spent a day refreshing their photo library.

We had a group of students that served as models. We set up a variety of situations that the students would participate in on a daily basis and were able to capture a nice group of photos.

We were recently hired to photograph headshots of the CEO of a New Jersey company.

We photographed his headshot against a portable grey background at his home and swapped out the background for white and a variety of office locations from our photo library.

We always try to show someone’s personality in a portrait. Sometimes photographing someone who is in certain professions such as law enforcement or judges is difficult because they are very guarded.

I had photographed this judge previously so I knew I’d be able to capture a nice portrait. It worked out even better than I expected and we collaborated on a great set of portraits.

Recently I photographed Dario Gill for a magazine story on the IBM executive.

We scouted a few different locations before Dario arrived so we could photograph him quickly and efficiently. Since he’s in charge of research it made sense to photograph him in front of computer equipment.

The trickiest shot was the one against a very shiny computer server. After a few adjustments on the lights, we had the photo looking great.

Candid office photos are some of my favorite type of corporate photography. Getting natural-looking photos of colleagues collaborating is a challenge so I enjoy the task.

I tried to get as much eye contact as possible in the photos. I try to move very slowly so people forget I’m there taking photos and they act naturally.

We recently created business headshots for a large organization in New Brunswick, NJ. We provided them with an online scheduling calendar so everyone could sign up for a convenient time slot.

Each person picked their favorite photo on-site and all the photos received custom retouching. Everyone then received their photo via a private gallery. The day went very smoothly and everyone was very happy.

Last year we spent two days photographing students at Ramapo College in New Jersey. We produced a huge new photo library with a large variety of activities at the school.

One of the goals was to produce images for a large advertising campaign displayed at the very busy Secaucus train station. The photos are now on display throughout the train station and they look great.

A New Jersey company needed new headshots and candid photos of staff working in the office. The company was redesigning their website so they needed a wide variety of photos.

We photographed the CEO with his office as the background and also against a grey background. After those headshots, the main mission was to capture candid photos of colleagues collaborating.

I recently collaborated with the marketing team at Ramapo University in New Jersey. We produced a wide range of photos highlighting many of the school’s programs during the two-day photoshoot.

One of the planned uses for the photos was a huge display in a large train station. The photos are now up at the train station and they look great. It’s fun to see your photo being used in unique locations.

We recently traveled to the Statehouse in Trenton to photograph headshots of NJ State Senators.

Since I photograph high-profile executives often I know the key to a successful headshot photoshootis to be prepared with an efficient system that makes the photoshoot quick and effective.

The location of the photoshoot was perfect, a large room directly across the hall from the Senate Chambers. Each Senator had to walk right past our room to cast votes so it was convenient for them to stop in.
