I met Karyn getting my useless 2 year degree at BCC here in lovely Fall River. We were forced to partner up and interview a stranger on the first day of Psych 101 and just as I was cursing my decision to return to school, Karyn dropped her books on my desk and walked into my life with a refreshing dose of snark and became my lifeline at that school. She’s a smart and ambitious woman always looking out for her next step forward in life and I really love that about her. She wanted some headshots for her resume and her LinkedIn profile, so we went for a corporate-friendly shot and then took off her jacket for a more relaxed, but still professional shot.

I’d hire her.

For the photographers out there, this was the over/under clamshell lighting with two shoot-throughs and small flashes, triggered by pocket wizards. The backdrop is my cream-colored wall, rendered grey with pure wizardninja magic. (i.e. I shot her a few feet from the wall)

Nudged the light to the side for a little more drama for the 2nd look.

What do you think, not bad for my first corporate headshot?
