Google Executive Photo-Shoot — the feeling is mutual: we like Google, and Google likes us. We've been a Google Favorite Place for several years running, and that relationship led to one of the more interesting executive portrait sessions we've booked.

Executive photography is a different discipline

Photographing a C-suite executive isn't the same job as a standard headshot. The subject has ten minutes, not an hour. The image will run on annual reports, press releases, board packets, and LinkedIn — each one demanding a slightly different crop. Everything has to be planned before the executive walks into the room: lighting set, wardrobe conversation done, expressions rehearsed.

We shoot with backup lights, backup cameras, and a tethered laptop so the client — or their PR team — approves selects before the executive leaves the chair. Nothing goes to email later.

Shoot with us

If you need corporate executive portraits — one person or a full leadership team — we can build a session that fits into their calendar and leaves you with a delivered gallery within 48 hours. Talk to us and we'll scope the shoot.
