Ashley Montemayor – Head Shots – McAllen, Texas
Posted on March 1, 2020
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.

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.

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.

Head shots- Sara Yanez – Ben Briones Studios
Posted on February 12, 2019
Sara and I rented the Fujifilm XT-3 to test it out because we are thinking of buying ourselves a pair. Our first test was with a one light setup with a beauty dish on a pink seamless. Everything was shot in JPEG and we did very minimal editing or none at all one some of the shots.
I had to adjust the camera setting a bit before we starting getting good results. I had to remove the eyepiece live view because I wasn’t able to see the shot because high aperture kept the view dark. I was also having trouble with the focus. I couldn’t tell if the shots were in focus so I setup the eye autofocus to help me. The the last thing I adjusted was the touch screen so I can zoom into the shot and check the sharpness. Those were the only 3 things that I had issues at first before figuring out how to fix them. Great camera for studio photography.

Flashpoint eVOLV 200 – Studio Head Shot Test – Ben Briones Studios
Posted on January 10, 2019

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.

Cacheaux Cavazos Newton LLP – Attorney Head Shots – McAllen, Texas
Posted on November 15, 2018
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.
