June 03, 2021 in Commercial

Creative Actor Headshots in downtown Albuquerque

More and more actors are moving to Albuquerque, New Mexico, and more and more actors are choosing Jason Collin Photography for their headshots. I met Andy in a favorite downtown ABQ spot for an on location headshot session on a variety of dynamic backgrounds. Andy wanted headshots that really accentuated his facial expressions, so I did a lot of shooting with my Sigma 50mm f/1.4 ART lens to really bring the DoF onto his face and eyes in particular. These are his two favorites from our session. Thank you Andy for choosing me as your headshot photographer!

Professional business headshots on location in Albuquerque

Lisa is new to Albuquerque and needed a new professional business headshot. She wanted as safe of a Covid-19 headshot shoot as possible, so we chose an outdoor location, Altura Park, for our shoot. During the shoot I wore a mask and maintained social distancing shooting with my Sony 70-200mm f/2.8 G Master lens that has fantastic image quality, creamy bokeh, and allows me to stay quite a distance from the person I am photographing. Thank you Lisa for meeting at the park and to Jessica for assisting on the shoot.

New Mexico State Senate Candidate on location photo shoot

I always really, really appreciate returning clients to Jason Collin Photography, and especially when the photos I make for them are as important as they are for New Mexico State Senate candidate Athena Christodoulou. Our first photo shoot was here at the JCP Home Studio for headshots. During this time of the coronavirus pandemic social distancing is a must, and for this on location shoot we were always more than 6 feet from each other and no one else was around. Jessica and I both wore masks during the entire shoot as well. It was a fun challenge to shoot in these conditions! Thank you fo Jessica for climbing a wall to get the diffuser in just the right place and to Athena for continuing to choose me as the photographer for her campaign.

The best lawyer headshots in Albuquerue

Downtown Albuquerque all of a sudden has been an in demand location for my professional headshot photo services! Often when I debut a new photo style on Jason Collin Photography new clients see it and want it too. Such was the case for these lawyer headshots with Scott of Turner Law Firm. The advantage of shooting on location is that you get an absolutely unique background for your headshot. This is demonstrated by the fact just 15 minutes earlier, at the same two downtown ABQ locations, I photographed his partner, Joshua, with the same lighting setup, same intersections in the background, and you can see how different his headshots turned out.

Unique attorney headshot photography in downtown Albuquerque

Back on location in downtown Albuquerque, New Mexico for these attorney headshots with Joshua of Turner Law. These headshots were made just 5 days after I made some for a local meteorologist at some of the exact same locations. This shows jus how unique on location headshots are as the background is constantly changing day-to-day. If you want a truly standout headshot that it is impossible for anyone else to have, downtown Albuquerque offers countless opportunities with only having to walk one block! This kind of unique headshot product is what is offered here at Jason Collin Photography for attorney clients, and any client!

Meteorologist Headshot Photo Newscaster for KRQE Connor Lewis in Albuquerque

March 11, 2020 in Commercial

On location headshot photography at its best in ABQ

Very rarely do I get to make headshots out on location, so when local KRQE meteorologist Connor Lewis asked for a shoot in downtown Albuquerque, I was very excited for it. As it turns out, this was one of my best every photo shoots of any kind. Being used to shooting headshots in studio with a solid white, black, or gray background, having a changing palette in the form of the downtown streets added a new creative element to every headshot I made for Connor. The traffic lights chasing from green to red made a difference, a car stopping with its lights on added to the background, and then in the next shot it moved on and was gone. This was fascinating to me. All through the shoot Connor was the one constant, always being ready for when I framed the shot and needed to get it in what could be my only chance.

US Congress Candidate Photography in Santa Fe with Alexis Johnson

Santa Fe Political Photography in the park!

This was my second photo shoot with Alexis Johnson, who is running for U.S. Congress for District 3 of Santa Fe, New Mexico. For our first shoot we a little pressed for time, so I was very glad she had more time for this shoot done right in Cathedral Park in the heart of Santa Fe. This extra time allowed me to really find the best backgrounds in the park, which were still important to get right even though as you can see they are out of focus in both shots. The bokeh (out of focus background) quality is still very much dependent on what is being made out of focus. So purposefully choosing where Alexis stood for the above photo with a tree being hit by the sun resulted in that great, bright bokeh behind her.
