The Result
The client was extremely happy and rebooked me.

CASE STUDY: KEYSTONE LAW
Headshots with Art Directions
SITUATION
When a new lawyer is hired, I have to contact them and create an appointment, and then ensure they have a completely unique photo.
SOLUTION
In advance, I research suitable locations near where the lawyer lives or works, and in 30 minutes create a professional portrait in a photojournalistic style.
The Result
I have arranged the appointment, and met the lawyer. I have fully understood which area of law they practice, I then create a look and a style. For example, family lawyers want soft and cuddly image , corporate lawyers want to look “tough”. The background and pose needs to match this.
