Our onsite headshots are made indoors using available light. In cases with low light conditions strobe lights were brought in to mimic natural window light.

On Location Sesssions Make For Great Portraits
When we do our on location portraits, we like to work with natural sunlight as much as possible. Natural sunlight provides us with soft shadows, warm colors, and flattering highlights on faces. These elements help us capture the best of you.
On location headshots tend to have an easygoing vibe to them. Professional portraits taken in on location using window light have a fresher and gentler feel. Natural light is warmer and more welcoming than strobe lighting, which can feel more stiff and clinical.
