Hélène Smith, PhD
When Hélène contacted me for another updated portrait, she was busy writing her PhD Dissertation. This time we had the shoot in her house, with warm ambient light and soft details to give a sense of her personality.
Creative environmental headshots like these are a great opportunity to introduce colours which can add to the story of the person and their personality.
Maria
Whether for professional or personal use, environmental headshots are the perfect way to show off your own or your brand’s personality.
Environmental portraits have two benefits: firstly, you know your environment and will be more comfortable right off the bat.
Secondly, the environment tells a story, giving it an editorial feel, which helps tell the story of the person in it, and it helps tell the story of the brand or industry in which this person operates.
Environmental headshots can be creative or more formal for a corporate headshot. The options are limitless.
Natural and ambient light can be complemented with artificial light sources and flash, and our mobile studio setup is perfect for this.
Creative Headshots – Philtins
Creative headshots are a brilliant way to not only show off the personality of your company or brand, but also to memorialise the legends that built the company. In a sense, they can serve as a way to document the life and work of someone, apart from ticking all the other boxes for this style of portrait.
A watchmaker is not a common sight nowadays, and since most watches these days are factory-made, the art of watchmaking is fast becoming a thing of the past.
This family business is a generational icon, and creating environmental portraits for them was a great honour.
Neels, the owner-founder watchmaker, has since passed away, and in his footsteps followed his son and daughter-in-law.
These creative headshots were a way to celebrate his legacy.
