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 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.

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.

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.

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.

A hospital client was in the middle of a large marketing campaign so we photographed the leadership team. The hospital has a beautiful lobby so we waited until the end of visiting hours to photograph the large group of doctors.

The shiny marble made the lighting a little tricky but the end result looked great.

I had the opportunity to photograph a Johnson and Johnson scientist who recently appeared in an Aveeno commercial with Jennifer Aniston.

Last year I photographed candid photos for a major New Jersey hospital. This year they asked me to come back for new photos and I had the chance to see the original framed and hanging on the walls. The prints and the framing looked great.
