Making professional photos of paintings for product use in Monterey
Derrick contacted me about photographing some of his paintings on wood. I asked for a few more details, like the size of the pieces, which I learned would easily fit in my photography studio here in Pacific Grove, California. He wanted professional, high resolution photos of his paintings to be used for making products like stickers. I enjoy seeing other people’s artwork up close like this. It was a fun shoot. Thank you Elijah for assisting and thank you Derrick for choosing me as your photographer! I look forward to photographing more of your paintings in the future
The ribbon cutting events that the Pacific Grove Chamber of Commerce puts on feature all kinds of different businesses in town. This one I had walked by quite a bit in the past year, but never went inside until this ribbon cutting event. If you like antiques and nostalgia, then The Grove Emporium is a place to definitely check out.
Professional Photography for Hotel Interiors and Amenities in Salinas California
This was actually my very first time to Salinas, to make professional interior photos of a Hampton Inn hotel. I had never photographed a hotel that had 9 different room types before either! In additional to the room photos, I got photographs of the amenities the hotel had like an indoor pool, a gym, a large conference room, and a small business center. Once spring blooms more, I will return for the exterior shots and drone video. Thank you to the team at this Hampton Inn that made the shoot go smoothly and very efficiently!
Professional Photos for Airbnb or Verb or Vacation Rental Home in Pebble Beach with Drone Aerial Photos too
Pebble Beach, California is becoming the place I go to most to make professional photos and aerial drone photos of Airbnb, Vrbo, an vacation home rental properties! The large, open common space photographed well showing a great place for Airbnb guests to spend time. I worked with a stager to setup a food / drink setting in order to get highlight and featuring photos, in addition to the wide angle shots of the rooms themselves. Highlighting photos are necessary for Airbnb shoots to let guests feel what kind of experience they could have in the home, while such photos may not always be needed or wanted in traditional real estate listings. I stayed until twilight to get a few lights on through the windows shots, and I also sent the drone up to show the property in its unique forested and sloped setting.
Actor Headshots in studio in Pacific Grove California
This was not a normal actor headshot photo shoot for me, as I first met Robyn over 15 years ago at a dog park all the way in St. Petersburg, Florida, where our dogs, born only 10 days apart in 2009, became each other’s first best friends (see the best photo of them playing together). I went on to photograph her daughter’s wedding some years later (making one of my all time favorite photos with Christmas lights), then we both end up moving to California just about a year apart. She came to visit me in Pacific Grove and as she is pursuing acting now, I made headshots for her after we caught up over lunch. Thank you Robyn for everything over the years!
Professional Airbnb Photography for Sand Dollar Beach in California
This was my first time traveling to this area of the central California coast, just about due west of Watsonville in the Sand Dollar Beach area. I was there to photograph a client’s longtime family beach house, now being used as an Airbnbvacation rental property. The client wanted drone aerial photos to show its proximity to Sand Dollar Beach and its beach house setting. I included highlighting and featuring photos for the client of the beach vibes found in the views of the property as well as the decor. Thank you Siobhan for choosing me as your Airbnb photographer!
Modern Headshots for looking friendly at your profession in Pacific Grove California
Before visiting the Jason Collin Photography headshot studio here in Pacific Grove, California, Carrie had a specific request for her headshots, make her look friendly as for her work in the military, she is always in uniform so for her headshots she wanted her look to be less intimidating and more approachable. Using a combination of lighting, wardrobe, and of course a friendly smile, we were able to work together to make headshots that Carrie approved as friendly and ready to be put into use! Thank you Carrie for choosing me as your headshot photographer!
