Ethisphere CEO Portrait Photography

in , ,

Photographing the new CEO for Ethisphere was a good experience. The session was pretty straightforward—focused on getting a professional shot that captured the CEO's leadership presence while still keeping it approachable. It’s always a balance when doing corporate headshots, and we aimed to highlight the right qualities for someone in that role.

The setup was simple, with clean lighting to give the shot a polished look. The goal was to make sure the CEO looked confident but relaxed, something that aligned with Ethisphere’s values of ethics and integrity. We didn’t go overboard with any extra props or backgrounds, just keeping it straightforward and professional.

Overall, it was a solid shoot. Headshots are always important for a company’s public image, and I’m glad to have been part of getting that shot for Ethisphere’s new leadership.

Portrait of Nina Beaty for Care Magazine

in

This week was assigned a portrait shoot for Care Magazine of Nina Beaty who is a Lung Cancer Survivor. Her story is really fascinating, starting with a family history that embedded with Broadway royalty, her grandfather was Richard Rodgers (of Rodgers and Hammerstein). After a chance encounter with a doctor who was treating her mother and a very luckily timed scan, she caught her cancer at just the right time to be detected and is doing great on a trial immunotherapy treatment.

Shot with the Fujifilm GFX 50S and 63mm F2.8 lens and lighting is sometime window light and sometime Profoto B2's.
