Corporate Photos

I had the great opportunity to photograph a division of a company in Salt Lake last week. They are such an amazing company and it made me wonder why more company’s don’t hire a professional photographer to photograph their employees or management. Having quality and consistent photos gives the impression of professionalism and also lets your employees know that you care and want them to look their very best in their dealings with other company’s. This is the second time I have worked for them and it was cool to see my original photos on their achievement/goal boards. Plus it gives your employees a photo to use on their Facebook, Twitter or blog pages. Here are just a couple from the numerous people I photographed.

Tungsten at Sunset

I took my niece and nephew out to the Salt Lake this evening. I was thinking we could maybe get some moody sunset photos, but when we got there the cloud cover completely blotted out the sun and left everything a drab brown color. As there was next to no light left I quickly grabbed a flash with a CTO gel and put it on a shoot through umbrella. I set my white balance to tungsten and snapped a few fast frames. Light was fading so fast that there really wasn’t any time for anything else. I love how this turns the background to total blue and gives the skin such a warm appearance. I included the first picture to show how blue everything really gets. Kind of fun, huh?

Gail - That’s so cool! Reminds me a lot of when we were in Alaska last summer. With the fog, and then how it never really got dark, but had low light late in the evening, it was a blueish kind of like that :) Your nephew is super adorable!March 4, 2011 – 8:08 pm

Kirk - Thanks Gail. I love the way you describe my photos. That is what makes photography so cool. Everyone relates to a photo in a different way and I like to think that there is a relationship between my photos and viewers. Thank you. March 4, 2011 – 9:47 pm
