NY_Portrait_Photographer_1 NY_Portrait_Photographer_2 NY_Portrait_photographer_022 NY_Portrait_photographer_023I was fortunate enough to be recommended by the New York Botanical Gardens to a local New York City filmmaker for a portrait project. Today was the first day of shooting and it was fascinating to meet all of the scientists who work in the field and onsite at the gardens.

I was told that this shoot was going to be quick, but I didn't realize they meant 30 seconds at most. I managed to fire about 10 frames before he had to leave for his next job.

Full day of Corporate Portraits

We managed to capture 72 portraits for a client this Friday. It was much more hectic than I would normally recommend, but with some careful scheduling we managed to provide this many people with new profile photos for their company profile and perhaps a few for Linkedin.ContactSheet-002 Ben Hider - Event Photographer based in New York City and Westchester

Corporate Headshots at ISE - A head shot or headshot is a specific type of portrait (usually a photograph) that realistically demonstrates a person's appearance for branding or casting.
Corporate and business Head Shots - Corporate head shots are portraits often produced digitally and used for engaging in social media, the about us page and industry specialty sites.
