Ashley came to our studio for professional headshots. She is a Mortgage Loan Originator at Cabrales Mortgage. So if you need a home loan feel free to click on her name to link out to her Facebook page.

Today I wanted to show off these 6 images from her session at my studio in McAllen because of two reasons. Reason number one: I wanted show that shooting in different orientations. We always shoot horizontal headshots and vertical just in case the client needs both for their marketing purposes. Reason number two: use at most two backdrop colors. This helps gives your clients headshots different looks, which can also be helpful for their marketing material for where they will be posting their images. 10.15.19_High Res_Ashley Head Shots_BBP-15 copy_pp_WEB10.15.19_High Res_Ashley Head Shots_BBP-15-2 copy_WEB10.15.19_High Res_Ashley Head Shots_BBP-15-4 copy_pp_WEB (2020-01-04T09_13_27.192)10.15.19_High Res_Ashley Head Shots_BBP-15-6 copy_pp_WEB10.15.19_High Res_Ashley Head Shots_BBP-15-7 copy_pp_WEB10.15.19_High Res_Ashley Head Shots_BBP-15-9 copy2_pp_WEB

Law office team headshots are just as important as the lawyer’s headshots. Let me tell you why. Your office specialist and paralegals are the first people your clients see and work with so it’s important to give them a face on your website and social media platforms. I was recently hired to photograph the amazing team at Oliva Law. Here are some of my favorite shots from the team at Oliva Law in McAllen, Texas. 07.23.19_High Res_Oliva Law Head Shots_BBP-9226_pp07.23.19_High Res_Oliva Law Head Shots_BBP-9265_pp07.23.19_High Res_Oliva Law Head Shots_BBP-9283_pp07.23.19_High Res_Oliva Law Head Shots_BBP-9307_pp07.23.19_High Res_Oliva Law Head Shots_BBP-9312_pp07.23.19_High Res_Oliva Law Head Shots_BBP-9332_pp

This past week I was asked by my friend Ray to help learn how to use his new snoot accessory for his studio light and these are some of the results from that practice. Ms. Cathy was in need of some professional photos for a modeling gig she was going to attend and so she became our practice subject and turned out getting some great photos. Here are some of my favorite shots from this photo shoot!

Fresh head shots are important to have for your business. I had Mr. Noel Garcia recently stop by my home studio to update his head shots for his company website. For professional head shots I suggest button up shirts or polo with your company logo. I also suggest for the client to bring a sports coat as well. Mr. Garcia brought both clothing items and his photos turned out great. He was pleased with the results. Here are my favorite shots from this professional head shot portrait session.

Flashpoint eVOLV 200 – Studio Head Shot Test – Ben Briones Studios

Ben Briones Studios 1 Comment

#TBT

A few months ago I tested the Flashpoint eVOLV 200 outdoor with these two cool kids and I loved how the photos came out. I have been recently looking for a smaller powerful light for my photography and the Flashpoint eVOLV 200 / Godox AD200 is a competitor for my money. Yes, I am probably like a billion years late with these lights but who cares.

Anyways, I was able to gather these guys again for another photo shoot but this time in my studio for head shots. I used a very small octabox, I believe it was a 18inch, and a YONGNUO YN560 for background light. To kill some shadows we used a small reflector under their face. Here are some of my favorite shots from the photo session testing out the Flashpoint eVOLV 200 in my studio. I am really, really thinking of getting this light but we will see. 2018-09-15_00012018-09-15_00032018-09-15_00022018-09-15_00042018-09-15_00072018-09-15_00052018-09-15_0006

Cacheaux Cavazos Newton LLP – Attorney Head Shots – McAllen, Texas

I recently had the opportunity to take professional head shots for Cacheaux Cavazos Newton LLP, a law firm located in McAllen, Texas. My client Marissa Rodriguez, who is also one of the partners at the law firm booked us. They allowed us to use one of their boardroom to setup, which was very kind of them. I did two looks for them but today you will only be seeing one. I chose this beautiful blue because I thought it went with their branding and it would look professional and bold. Here are some of my favorite takes from this head shot session. 2018-11-14_00052018-11-14_00062018-11-14_00072018-11-14_00082018-11-14_00092018-11-14_00102018-11-14_00112018-11-14_00122018-11-14_00132018-11-14_00142018-11-14_0015

Boys and Girls Club of Pharr – Head Shots – Ben Briones Studios

Ben Briones Studios Leave a comment

The Boys and Girls Club is near and dear to my heart. I volunteered and briefly worked at the Edinburg, Texas Boys and Girls Club before moving to Austin to attend The University of Texas at Austin. I was under the leadership of Sabrina Walker-Hernandez and Freddy Mata (featured here). I work a lot with the Boys and Girls Club of Edinburg but not afraid to assist and help other clubs around the Rio Grande Valley.

When I got the call that the Boys and Girls Club of Pharr was in need of professional head shots and some group photos I immediately did my best to provide them a fair price get the ball rolling on getting signed. Well, lo and behold here are the results of their leadership team head shots. 03.28.18_PRINT_Boys and Girls Pharr_BBS-030_pp_WEB03.28.18_PRINT_Boys and Girls Pharr_BBS-108_pp_pp_WEB
