Corporate headshots in the studio | Wanchai, Hong Kong

Renato and Cristina, husband and wife architect team (and entrepreneurs).

Lately I’ve been asked to shoot a lot of in-studio corporate headshots, and I have to be honest, photographing executives in business suits is not exactly the sexiest area of photography. Nevertheless, I’ve really grown to like it. For my clients, their need for new headshots usually marks an interesting crossroads in their life. Some have just arrived in Hong Kong in search of new beginnings, others have been here for years but are joining a new firm. Some clients need portraits to update their online or social media presence (eg. LinkedIn, Facebook), others as part of their first steps in setting up a new small business. Some have no concrete plan at all (which I can particularly relate to). So in the hour that I usually spend in a portrait session, I usually get to hear an interesting story or two. As the subject, I think the session is a fairly relaxing break in a busy day – when they can chat, loosen their tie (if the shot doesn’t need one), and maybe even smile!

Here are some outtakes from some recent corporate headshot sessions that were not the final picks but I like them anyway:

Rebecca, executive coach and proud mom (laughing at her daughter making faces over my shoulder).

Angela, Director in recruiting.

Kieron is restarting his career in HK. Ella works for city’super!
