The Boro – Tysons, Virginia

These photos were from the 2017 Clarence Clottey shoot at his office. Located in the Boro, you can obviously see the explosive development in the area. With this in mind, it was a perfect setting for Clarence’s custom men’s clothing. On this occasion, Clarence wanted to get some individual photos of shirts and ties for his website, then we got some photos of him modeling a suit around his work place.

In general, I am unfamiliar with being daring with my clothing. Certainly Clarence can help businessmen stand out with his bespoke options for suits, shirts, and accessories. Just prior to this shoot, he received a shipment from the factory in Europe where they produce his apparel. If you are looking specifically for a color or coordinate style, Clarence can create a look for you. With this in mind, he had a couple of customers come to his office to pick up recent orders. As a backdrop, his office in the Boro was a showcase of the growing Tysons area as well as the modern office spaces that are coming soon.

For this post, I wanted to revisit some 2016 Headshots that were all done with a mobile lighting setup. If coming to the studio is not convenient for you or your staff, it is equally possible for me to bring the lighting on location. As an illustration, both of these sessions were done with a mobile lighting setup.

Burke, Virginia

Joe Mjelde is the owner of the Edward Jones Investments office in Burke, VA. When he needed some images to accompany an article on his services, he hired me to get photos in his newly renovated office. Since it was very clean in his office, I incorporated the environment in the images.

Similarly to Joe’s session, I photographed Lakshmi and Ted in a conference room. On this occasion, I was a keynote speaker at a networking group. For my talk, I wanted to do a live demonstration for the purpose of showing my mobile capabilities. Both work nicely to me! Having a clean white background really makes images pop out of white backgrounds as seen here:

2016 Studio Headshots

Tysons, Virginia

Coming across clients on social media jogged my memory for these 2016 studio headshots. For these examples, I photographed in the studio. Compared to on-location setups, there are some advantages to doing it this way. Firstly, I have time to set the lighting beforehand. This will save time in how long you need to be at the studio. Secondly, a studio shoot allows for tethering the camera to the computer. Specifically, the images will immediately available to view on a nice large laptop screen, or TV monitor.

For this headshot, it was helpful to review the photos on a large TV monitor. Accordingly, you can review your facial expression, wardrobe, and how they look on a chosen background. With attention to the background a clean white seamless is very easy to work with after the shoot. In this case, the realty office has a certain corporate background that the headshot will be placed. With this in mind, it was important to get a background that would be easy for them to cut out later.

Darker Background Headshots

For Dr. AK here, I gave him a choice of a lighter or darker background. In contrast to the white, these seem to have a more specular quality to them. However, both styles I think are very professional and will do the job of elevating your branding with a professional portrait.
