Environmental Headshots

Our process is straightforward. First, we don't expect you to be a pro in front of our cameras. Taking your photo can be intimidating, but we like to keep it lighthearted and fun throughout the process. We'll coordinate with your capture manager based on location, whether in front of a project location or even the hallway of your office. We'll light you up with enough flash to make yourself "pop" off the page. All you have to do is take simple direction from our lead photographer and let us make you look good. Various angles and focal lengths will be taken, giving the proposal managers a variety to use in their proposal layouts.

Preparation:

Example of business “formal” for ladies.

Ladies - business casual in dark colors like black, navy, or gray. A hint of color based on our Atkins color palette of blues or aqua (please refer to the Atkins color palette). No busy patterns or bright, outrageous colors. If you’re unsure, send us a photo, and we’ll help you decide. Please show up with your hair and makeup already done.

Example of business “casual” for men.

Gentlemen - business casual in dark black, navy, or gray colors. If you’re wearing a tie, a hint of color based on the Atkins color palette of blues or aqua (please refer to the Atkins color palette). Consider white or light blue for business “formal” if you plan to wear a dress shirt. If it’s business “casual,” consider wearing a polo-style shirt complimenting the Atkins blue palette. Dress slacks or khaki-style pants are ok as well.

Clothing Style: Business “Casual” vs. Business “Formal”

Know your client! Knowing their business style is essential, depending on the client you’re pursuing. Consider wearing a business “casual” style if they're laid-back and easygoing. But if your client is uber-severe and business-like, for the ladies, consider a pantsuit or skirt with a blazer for business “formal”; for the gentlemen, consider a business suit or sport coat with dress slacks.

Type of Headshots

We will be taking a variety of headshots so that your marketing and graphics team can have a selection to choose from. This allows more creative freedom to make these photos work in their layout.

Business “formal” example.

The Environmental Headshot has set the tone of our proposals without using a boring white background. This example shows the versatility of what we can do with a headshot that compliments the resume section of a proposal.

Types of Angles

We photograph you from three angles based on a clock- twelve o’clock, 10 o’clock, and 2 o’clock. The process is simple with our direction. Once we position your body, we create an expression on your face by helping you relax with a conversation or may even make you laugh. We don’t want you to try too hard. Let us take the lead in finding the correct expression to make your client feel at ease. Giving you different angles allows the designer to create your proposal look different from all the rest.

Above: 2 o’clock position. The nose aims at 2, while the shoulders, hips, and belly button aim at 10, with the eyes towards the lens.

Full-Body Environmental Headshots

Full-body environmental headshots are an essential tool for engineers who work in the field. These headshots visually represent the work in various environmental conditions, such as construction sites, project locations, and outdoor areas. They are an excellent way to showcase the skills and expertise of engineers and help clients understand the scope of their work. By capturing the engineer in their working environment, these headshots can also help to build trust and confidence with potential clients. Additionally, environmental headshots can be used for promotional purposes, such as on company websites or marketing materials. Overall, environmental headshots are valuable for any engineer looking to showcase their work and expertise.

Infrastructure Photography

Engineers often rely on infrastructure photography to capture detailed images of their projects. They can document every aspect of their work using high-quality cameras and specialized equipment, from construction sites to completed structures. This type of photography is an essential tool for engineers, as it allows them to monitor progress, identify problem areas, and make informed decisions about future projects. With infrastructure photography, engineers can ensure that their work is safe, efficient, and up-to-date with industry standards.

Aerial Photography

In today’s competitive industry, engineers can use aerial photography to gain valuable project insights and data. By capturing images from above, our audience can better understand the terrain and surrounding environment. Aerial photography can help engineers identify potential obstacles or hazards impacting their projects. Furthermore, engineers can use aerial photography to create detailed maps and 3D models of their project area, which are used for planning and design purposes. With the help of aerial photography, engineers can make informed decisions and ensure the success of their projects.
