Minneapolis Company | Corporate Headshots | Minneapolis Portrait Photography

Last week I had the opportunity to do a quick corporate portrait session with Convey Compliance Systems Inc. located in Minnetonka. We basically shot in three different locations throughout their building. Both indoors using strobes and outdooors with natural lighting. I did not know how many people would be involved going so I was surprised to find out there would be thirteen. Everyone was a pleasure to work with, very relaxed and quite accommodating. The shoot went smoothly and without a hitch. Here is one selected shot from each individual. I provided a color and black and white version of each image they received.

Paul Nye | Musician and Songwriter | Studio Portrait Session

Paul Nye, is a Musician, Singer, Songwriter who resides up in Walker, MN. He is putting together a new CD which will be released this Spring. The more I learn about Paul the more impressed I am. I just noticed on the liner notes of his last CD that he played almost all the instruments. I don’t know about you but that just blows me away. His newest CD, as his previous release, is a collection of songs for children. Parents and children alike will love this music and I encourage you to check it out here. He also has his own website. Paul also puts on some 80 shows during the Summer at the Woodtick Theatre in Akeley, Minnesota. If you get up to that neck of the woods I encourage you to check a show out. Deb and I are planning on it this year.

Paul and I had been in contact for a couple of weeks and he let me know he was headed to the Twin Cities and wanted to connect and get some shots. I was grateful to have the opportunity to work with him. I had a great time getting to know him and look forward to connecting again soon.

Here are some shots from our time together that afternoon.

Professional Portraits | Minneapolis Portrait Photographer

Carolynn contacted me in regards to acquiring some portraiture for both professional and personal use. I appreciated not only being given the opportunity to provide the portraits but also her recognition of the importance of professional portraits in the professional world. I am amazed at the quality of imagery some professionals are using. I personally have a difficult time recognizing someone as a respected professional when they are putting forth a low quality image. I mean we all know about first impressions. When the first impression potential clients have of you, via your website or printed materials, is the photo you are putting out there, it should be aligned with who you are, what you do, and the message/persona you wish to convey. Scanning in your driver’s license image is not going to leave a strong impression… well at least not the kind you wish to leave.

Give some thought to what you have out there… is it current? My first question is one of integrity when someone shows up to a meeting looking 20 years older than the image on their website. People want to trust the image you are putting out there. Is it relevant? Does the image show the confidence, level of approachableness, etc, that you wish to get across?

So, please… give it some thought and make a decison. There are many of us out there willing to help you put forth the image you envision yourself having.

CJ Program Portraits | Minneapolis Portrait Photography

I was asked to take some headshots for Circus Juventas to be used for the Summer Performance program. This year’s production, another Circus Juventas original, is titled GRIMM: Happily Ever After. Tickets go on sale July 5th. Get your tickets soon as shows sell out and this is something you do not want to miss.

With that… here are some of my favorite shots. It was wonderful working more closely with all the performers. Generally we do not get to interact as I am primarily shooting performances. I appreciated this opportunity to meet and work with them all on a different level.

Minneapolis Attorney | Minneapolis Portraits

I had the pleasure of spending a little bit of time with well respected Minneapolis attorney Anthony Barthel. Anthony had previously partnered with another Minneapolis attorney.  Together they had built a substantial Minneapolis firm specializing in corprate and contract law. Anthony has since struck out on his own to begin his own firm. I came into contact with Anthony via a mutual friend.

Anthony will be officing in the Carlson Tower complex. This was my first time visiting the Towers. What an impressive complex. It was amazing. I would have liked to have several hours just documenting the structure.

Here are some shots we got that early evening that will be used by Anthony for promotional purposes on his upcoming website.

Thank you Anthony and I wish you the best on this new adventure!

Minneapolis Law Firm | Minneapolis Portraits

Earlier this year I had been asked to do some portraiture for Sapientia Law as they were just about to publish their website. They recently added some new personnel and also had moved into their new offices. Due to the changes they asked me back to get not only some portraits but some environmental images to use on their website.

Their new office space is gorgeous and I could sense the excitement about the future as I spoke with Jon. I was happy to partner with them again in providing them images for their site. I wish them well and much prosperity.

Corporate Portrait and Group Session | Law Firm

I had the pleasure of working with the team from Sapientia Law in the studio a short time ago to provide them with imagery for their website. Part of what this group wanted to convey with their imagery was their individual personalities, as well as, their unique personality as a firm. Their message is one of being a different type of law firm, not holding to the old traditional views. They want to be known as caring, flexible, fun, and diverse amongst other things. So I took that approach to the shots, trying to reveal some of their individuality. I also purposely made these images appear “warm”, as opposed to the “coldness”, which is all too prevalent in corporate portraiture. It was nice to bring this sort of feel to the images knowing how they would be used. I am definitely not the cold and stiff type so working with a group such as this was a genuine pleasure. I sincerely wish them all luck in their new venture.

Pseu Pseu Studio

The other day I had the pleasure of returning to Circus Juventas to do some portrait shots of the very talented coaches and staff.

I don’t often do what I would classify as, studio shoots. The night I was there was a night where things were in full swing so I had little room to work in on a main pathway in the building. It lent itself to some interesting encounters but all in all the shoot came off well.

I enjoy being able to pull out the lights and background, in this case I was using a new background for the first time, and seeing what we can do. There is a different sense of accomplishment that comes from a more structured shoot than that which comes from a photojournalistic, on the fly, sort of shoot. I enjoyed my time back with this wonderful group. Here are some of the shots we came away with.

Bill Greenwood Promo

I have known Bill Greenwood for a couple of years now. Very talented man with a heart for God and an ongoing story to share. I am grateful to know him.
Bill asked me if I could take some shots of him for promotional material. I was more than happy to do that. We did not have much time… I think we setup and shot for less than 30 minutes. Not an optimal situation but we came out of it with some useable work. I would like the opportunity to add some to his portfolio if we can do it under a little less time constraint :-) .
Look forward to some new music from this excellent songwriter and musician.
Peace,
Bill
