Props Make a Great DC Head Shot Portrait

DC architect Robert Nichols - Photo by Tracey Attlee

When Robert Nichols an award-winning DC architect recently came in for a studio portrait session he arrived prepared.  Not only was his wardrobe, a neatly pressed shirt and suit, selected to set off his summer skin tones but he brought props to tell the story about his life as an architect: a scale model of his latest custom home design, plans and equipment he uses on the job.
Todd A. Smith created a lighting strategy that complimented the subject and revealed detail in the whites of his scale model and plans.  Lighting white for detail is not an easy thing to do but Todd has many years of experience lighting architecture.  Thank you Todd @toddasmithphoto
We experimented with different backdrop colors to find the best for publication. His portrait will be published and marketed widely owing to his recent award.  We liked the contrast of his hair and skin tones on this pearl gray backdrop the most.
For the best head shot photos in DC please call Tracey Attlee for location business portraits at your DC, MD or VA facility or to make an appointment for a session in our spacious Alexandria, VA studio with plenty of free parking.  We have over 30 years experience behind the lens and offer customized lighting just for your particular face and figure.  Tracey Attlee Portraits will help you put the best face on your business!
