Calgary Portrait Photographer

SMArt Headshots | Better Business Portraits

I had an opportunity to create Business Portraits for the team at a local Calgary IT company called Service Management Art (SMArt). They needed a Portrait Photographer to make headshots for use on their website, social media accounts, and print materials. We had a fun portrait session in their offices and I came away with a few great images that I'm very happy with. Those of you that have heard me speak at a Calgary business networking meeting probably know how I feel about bad business portraits... they need to go away! Your business headshot is the first thing that people see when they look you up on your company website, on LinkedIn, on Facebook, or even on Twitter. If you want to make a great first impression then your headshot needs to look great too. Thanks to Peter Lijnse at SMArt for choosing me to create Better Business Portraits for his team.

Candid Images from Ladies Night of Indulgence

I had a really great time at "Ladies Night of Indulgence" last Saturday! This event was tons of fun and the interaction between all the participants and between the vendors was fantastic. We had all kinds of decadence to choose from and everyone was really engaged. They had a wide selection of things to try out: chocolate, wine, jewelery, skin and hair care products. There were also booths to learn about health and wellness options including massage, postural assessments, and nutritional products. And of course I was there with my photo studio to create Headshots and Business Portraits for anyone that was interested. All in all it was a very fun event and we're already looking into doing another one soon. I'm hoping that the next one will be in South East Calgary instead of in the North West. Stay tuned for details! Whenever I attend an event or a trade show I always try to capture a few candid images of the vendors and the participants as they enjoy the show. Here are a few of those images that may help give you a feel for the show!

Laszlo Business Portrait Session

It's funny how the work I do goes in waves. For awhile it seemed like I was a full-time Pet Photographer. More recently I've been very busy doing Business Portraits for small-business owners. Everybody in business needs a headshot and it's very important that they look great. A business portrait is usually the first thing that people see when they are looking for information about other businesses and their employees and owners, so these sessions are very important to me. And getting together with other entrepreneurs is always lots of fun, so I really enjoy doing them! Here are a couple of headshots from a Business Portrait session with Adrianna Laszlo, a Calgary based IT Consultant. Adrianna needed Headshots for her website and her various social media accounts. We had a fun session in my home studio and I'm really happy with the results.

Business Portraits

I just wanted to quickly share a couple of the headshots I created at the Calgary Chamber of Commerce "Business After Hours" event the other night. The event was lots of fun and I made some really great contacts. I also reconnected with lots of other people that I have met at previous events. This was the first time that I had my own both in the trade show portion the event. We didn't have a typical booth though; we had a full photography studio setup and we offered a very special price for Business Portraits for anyone that wanted one. Here are a couple of my favorites.
