Max is a business advisor at a firm and was looking to get a loosely cropped portrait that he could submit to his company to publish in their online staff section. Max was very decisive and picked his favourite photo on the spot. Please note it takes 1 week from the selection date for us to finish editing photo(s) from our Quick Package. Editing times may vary with other packages.
Professional Studio Portrait Photoshoot
Veronique was looking to have her son's portrait taken so that they could test out the waters and see how he feels about modelling. Since her son has very curly hair naturally, we suggested adding grooming services to his package, whereby our makeup artist smoothed out blemished on his skin, and smoothed out his curls while redefininh their shape. We are happy that they both loved how the photos turned out and wish him all the best in the future!
Professional Corporate Portrait
Karen is a new employee at a financial company and as part of her duty in her first week, she was sent to us to take a professional portrait. Since this photo would be displayed alongside other employees in a gallery online, we matched the lighting and angle. Karen had never had her professional portrait taken before so it was expected that she be nervous, but after seeing the results after the first round on our monitor, she became more confident in how everything was turning out and was able to smile naturally.
LinkedIn Corporate Business Headshot
Michael was looking to get a clean and professional photo of himself to be updated on his LinkedIn profile. We like how he prepared a dark blue suit for this session, since subtlety is a key factor in a strong image (not to mention blue is the friendliest colour around!). This session was a little trickier since he wore glasses throughout, however we managed to find an angle that worked for both of us which would give no flare on the lens.
Graduation Portrait
We had the pleasure of shooting Chris the other week, a recent high school graduate whose parents were looking to get a professional portrait done of him. Though he already had his traditional graduation picture taken, they thought it would be neat to get a modernized polished portrait that would serve as an additional memento of this time in his life.
For portrait sessions, we recommend choosing a textured background which adds a little more intrigue and emotional content in the photo. Our light textured grey is neutral enough to go with any skin tone and and light enough to have colours pop against it.
Professional Portrait Photography
Trent is a young and enthusiastic student who was looking to get sharp photos that he could use for personal and professional use. Trent is interested in applying to be a commercial model, but at the same time wanted photos that were neutral enough to double as a portrait. The silver blazer we selected for him was perfect to convey the smart casual style he was aiming for, and the textured grey background had just the right amount of intrigue to liven the photo.
Professional Acting Headshot
Olivia was interested in getting into the film industry and wanted to start putting together a portfolio that she could submit for auditions. She already had experience working as a background worker, but decided to change directions and try her hand in acting.
Olivia's headshots were taken against our studio background, which gets painted a different colour weekly. You always have the option of taking a couple shots without the provided backdrops (white, grey, charcoal, blue green), should you find our current set colour suitable.
Fashion Modelling Photoshoot
Genevieve had some experience modelling in the past, but was recently coming off a break and needed a refresher for her portfolio. She wanted her styling to be more commercial as she already had plenty of high fashion editorial looks in her book. She got the Exclusive Fashion Package which gave her 3 outfits prepared by a fashion stylist, professional hair and makeup service, and tips and guidance from the photographer throughout the session.
