Steve S. Headshot

Steve photographed by Dallas headshot photographer Alex Cena

I only have a few friends I consider family and even fewer I would completely trust in a firestorm.  Steve, who is the Chief Accounting Officerof a pharmaceutical company in Texas, is one of those kinda friends.  We go way way back and I know he will bend over backwards to help someone out, especially a friend.  It was a no brainer to say yes when he told me he needed a Dallas headshot photographer to create a portrait he can use for his LinkedIn profile.

The above image was shot with a Leica M9 and a 75/1.4 Summilux.  Steve was standing under the shade of a tree and a white foam core reflector was placed about chest high.  Since I try to keep my blog rated PG, I’m not going to repeat what I said to finally get a natural expression from him.  Can’t even tell he was just wearing a pair of shorts for the shoot.  It was 105 degrees Fahrenheit at White Rock Lake in Dallas, TX that day after all.

    105 degrees in a shirt and tie – I can hear the cursing now!

    Often when I look at or evaluate headshots and portraits, I ask myself the question – Is this a guy I would like to meet? The answer here is a resounding YEs!
