Business Portraits

Starting a new year starts another round of headshots. Following the resolution of exercise, or healthy eating, updating headshots is high on the list. Equally important to having a strong resume on an application is a clear business-appropriate headshot. Following the statistics, the “About Me” page is one of the most visited of small businesses pages. Because of this, a portrait that will make an impression is very important.

Knowing that this is the case, I take this assignment very seriously. Seeing that updating your professional portrait takes time, and money, sometimes these images are used for years. So I commit to all my clients to work with them to ensure we are getting the results they are looking for. While it is not a guarantee, I do my best. During the shoot, photos are sent right to a computer. Simultaneously, the images are displayed on a large monitor. From there, we can review during the shoot what we are getting. This is a new process for me when making headshots in 2015, and I am pleased with the results. On one hand, it gives the client confidence during the shoot. One the other hand, I am confident that I am producing what they want.

I am also flexible in conducting these sessions. If it is impossible to come to the studio, I can bring a mobile setup to an office. Consequently, you may be able to get more relaxed, natural portraits. Whatever the situation, please let me know if you would like to get a new professional portrait.

2015 Fall Freestyles Expiring

DC Area Arthur Murray Studios

The photos from last September’s 2015 Fall Freestyles expiring at the TimeLine Media proofing site. During this event, we had six professional shows on Saturday evening! Given that I make so many photos of pro-am dance couples, having professionals dancing together presents fun challenges.

Pushing Limits

In order to capture professional dance shows, you really push the limits of the camera. Auto focus systems are frequently updated with each new camera body. In that case, I use the highest end sports cameras to track these dancers and keep them sharp in photos.

Despite the highest end gear, I still have more misses than usual for a dance performance. Can I blame this all on the camera? I wish! But no – I am also part of the equation. First of all, is the palpable buzz in the room when the shows are about to start. Everyone in the room is focusing their attention on the only couple out on the floor. This heightens my nerves, and puts me on edge as I want to come out with some great images from their performance.

Secondly, these are the most skilled dancers in the room wanting to display their talent and skill to the fullest. Although they may do some familiar figures, they will not look exactly the same as amateur dancers, and their movements will be full out in every instance! While these make the best photos, it does shift the timing for me somewhat, and I can be off from the peak moment.

Lastly, they can be performing figures that are not standard. Unlike the syllabus that is taught to everyone, they add some showy flourishes that are not normally seen in social dancing. These surprises keep me on my toes during shows and make this my favorite part of the weekend. I hope you enjoy all the photos!

Rising from the Plaza at Tysons Corner Center, their large Christmas tree was a focal point this holiday season. Once the holiday market tents were built, and the tree put in place, the crowds started to gather. Finally it was time for the 2015 Christmas Tree Lighting ceremony!

Earl’s – Tysons, VA

Whereas Earl’s ice rink on the Plaza was a place to play and cool off, their restaurant warms you up. After all the skating, the inviting bar at the Earl’s adjacent to the Plaza is a perfect meeting spot.
