Try Executive Portraits on Location

Attlee Photography salutes TRINITY Group Construction in Herndon, VA who recently commissioned us for environmental portraits on location. They opted for portraits in and around their corporate headquarters rather than on a backdrop. 

Susan Caudle, the dynamic new marketing director at TRINITY Group Construction, helped us plan and shoot with clear requests and great ideas.

Successful environmental portraits require creativity, skill in balancing light sources and good planning.  Our solution was to scout the interior in advance, plan several locations for portraits and then build shooting stations at each of three locations.  That way we had the lights ready and waiting at each stop and could photograph and return the busy executives back to their offices quickly. 

Attlee Photography's tip to companies thinking of environmental portraits:  have the photographer in for a consultation before the shoot.  That way they will be visually prepared for your space and know exactly what equipment to bring on the shoot day.  And, they can help settle wardrobe questions so your executives will know what to wear.

Tracey Attlee is a former White House photographer whose commercial work as a VA, DC and MD corporate photographer includes executive portraits and high level events.  If you need a DC, MD or VA commercial photographer Attlee Photography is located in Alexandria, VA at 703-751-1778.  Her social photography as a DC, VA, MD, NY and Jersey wedding photographer is also highly regarded throughout the region.
