Roanoke Headshot Photographer

, ,

Since moving to Roanoke, Virginia, I haven’t photographed all that much. Last Sunday, I changed that “streak” with my first headshot session and I quickly became a “Roanoke Professional Photographer”.

Kuei, photographed above, is our neighbor and a professional software developer. Monika told her I photograph professionally in New York and she asked if I’d be interested in taking her photo. She wanted a headshot photo she could use in her email signature, contact card, and LinkedIn.

So, I setup my mobile headshot studio right in her garage and within a couple of minutes I was ready to go. We tried a few different looks and I always asked Kuei for her feedback; glasses, no glasses, jacket, and no jacket. After the backdrop photos we walked 15feet behind me to the outdoors.

For our outdoor headshot photos, I brought one light outside with a small diffuser. I used the sun as a hair light and the woods as a background. The headshots above are lightly edited and retouched removing hair fly aways and oil spots.

As a headshot photographer based out of Long Island and serving New York City I receive a lot of requests for “something different than the standard backdrop”. Jonathan reached out to me for his new LinkedIn photo saying he wanted something different, and he liked my work.

So, we met up early one Saturday morning in July, before it got too hot, in Sea Cliff, NY. I knew Sea Cliff could provide us options throughout our headshot photography session. Sea Cliff would provide us green backgrounds, long streets to bring in your eye to the subject, and clean architecture to act as another element of interests.

Virginia's Best Guided Fishing Trip

Thanks to our two river fishing guides Matt and Ethan, both based out of Lynchburg, Virginia for an incredible day of fishing on the Maury River. As a group of 4 avid fisherman, our hired guides proved knowledgeable about all of their gear (lures, boats, water, fish), well prepared with gear, and equally as important with food (lunch, water, snacks). Our lead guide Matt took us on his float boats, 2 people with a guide per boat, down the Maury River in Lexington, Virginia.
