Corporate Photographer

Why hire a professional corporate photographer?  The main reason is for the professional experience.  You’re hiring someone who is experienced in corporate photography.  The imagery on your website and in corporate marketing materials should 1) show the real company rather than stock images and 2) be professional.   Marketing is your first impression with potential clients and partners.  It should put the best of the company forward at any given moment.  Working with a professional corporate photographer ensures that your vision of your brand is portrayed in the corporate photos.

“An effective corporate photographer views themselves as a member of your team, no matter how brief the project. They see themselves as an extension of your marketing department. They also see themselves as a translator – one who is responsible for understanding your company’s mission, values, goals, personality and branding – and to make sure this information comes through in your corporate photos.” Donna Santos Studio

Christensen Building Group

I first photographed Christensen Building Group several years ago.  We did headshots in the office that would be used for sales proposals.  When they contacted me again for updated headshots, group shots, and action shots, I was thrilled.  I love to work with repeat clients because we already have an established connection.  I am familiar with the company and their needs and they are familiar with my work and processes.  Win-win.  So, I set up in the conference area for the standard headshots on the grey background.  These would match the headshots that I took several years ago.  Then we also took some additional headshots for the management team in the front of the office with the logo in the background.  Finally, we got some group photos in the lobby and some “action” shots during a meeting.  All fantastic images that will make a great first impression!

It’s never just pressing a button.

It’s reading the room.
Adjusting in real time.
Knowing how to bring out confidence—even when someone feels uncomfortable in front of the camera.

The technical side matters.
But the connection, the instinct, and the ability to see what others don’t… that’s what turns it into something more.

📩 If you’re ready for photos that feel like you, you can book through the link in my bio.

Come along with me as I set up for a headshot + branding session 👇🏻

When you’re just getting started, it’s easy to think you need all the gear before you can take on client work.

You don’t.

For in-office headshots, a solid setup really comes down to a few essentials:
✅ reliable lighting
✅ a strong lens
✅ a backdrop
✅ reflectors to help control light and keep skin tones consistent

That’s how I’m able to create clean, professional headshots—without being in a studio.

And for branding? That’s where I shift.

Instead of a backdrop, I’m using the client’s space—capturing environmental images that feel more natural, personal, and aligned with their business.

Same session, two different approaches—both intentional.

Because at the end of the day, it’s not about having more gear…
it’s about knowing how to use what you have.

If your brand hasn’t been updated this year… this might be your sign 👇🏻

Summer is one of the best times to refresh your branding imagery—and most people don’t take advantage of it.

Things tend to slow down just enough to step back and actually look at what your brand is communicating.

And for a lot of businesses, this is when it becomes clear:
→ the photos don’t match the level you’re operating at anymore

A mid-year refresh isn’t about starting over—it’s about making sure your visuals reflect where you are now, not where you were a year ago.

But before you even book new photos… you need clarity.

What do you want your brand to feel like?
How do you want to show up?

That’s exactly why I created my Brand Personality Workbook—to help you define that first, so your photos actually align.

Shooting outdoors doesn’t always mean “perfect lighting.” 👇🏻

One of the biggest challenges with natural light is inconsistency—
skin tones can shift depending on shade, surroundings, and even reflections (hello green grass 👀).

That’s why I use off-camera flash, even outside.

It helps create:
✅ consistent skin tones
✅ balanced lighting
✅ a cleaner, more polished final image

So instead of guessing what the light is doing…
I’m controlling it.

📥 If you’re a photographer trying to figure out lighting + gear, I’ve put together a guide with the setups I actually use—link in bio.

What it looks like behind the camera… vs. what you get 👇🏻

Different sessions, different people, different goals—
but always the same focus: helping you feel comfortable and confident in front of the camera.

Headshots, branding, families, seniors, and more… it all comes back to capturing people in a way that actually feels like them.
