End of summer actor headshots for Emily.
Emily was looking for new headshots for submitting to a local talent agency and booked our Classic Session option with an outdoor location.
Each image selection from the proof gallery includes retouching and file formatting for print and web in multiple crops for easy use.

Choosing the Right Outdoor Location
From a few iconic Portland outdoor location choices we landed on the SE Waterfront area just south of the OMSI Museum on the Eastside Esplanade in inner east Portland, Oregon along the Willamette River.
This location was a great choice for a late afternoon-end of summer session when the sun would be reaching east over the SW hills providing an excellent natural light source for the photos.
We were lucky that the weather was clear and still had some green deciduous trees still bright even as we approached fall. View Top 3 Challenges and Benefits for Photographing Outdoors

“Erica is very professional and made me feel at ease during the shoot, which resulted in great photos. She had great suggestions along the way and took the time to get things right, encouraged me to change outfits – which made a huge difference – and was proactive with angles / coaching me on which way to move to get the best result. Highly recommend!”
