Ernest Barbaric | Calgary Business Portraits

Downtown Executive Portrait Session Here are a few images from a great executive business portrait session I did with with Calgary digital marketing strategist Ernest Barbaric. Ernest is a speaker, trainer, and consultant who works with clients in all aspects of digital and social media marketing. He needed some new headshots for use on his website and marketing materials, and of course for his own social media accounts. Sometimes clients know exactly what they want to get out of their portrait sessions, and sometimes they don't. Ernest came prepared with several examples of business portraits that he liked, so we used that as a guide when we were planning the photoshoot. We met up in downtown Calgary and made use of the brick, stone, glass, and metal of the buildings around us to provide some great backdrops for the portraits we made. It was a great session and were able to make a wide variety of images for Ernest to select from. He will of course be able to choose the images that he likes best, but here are a few of my favorites from the session. Does the Business Portrait you're using still look like you? It's very important that the photo you use actually looks like you and that it represents the image you want to portray to the public the first time they "meet" you online. So if you're still using a picture from a few years ago, or you have different glasses or dress differently now than you did back then, it's probably time for an update.

Marty Plante Business Portraits

Better Business Portraits Marty came into my Calgary portrait studio to get updated business portraits for use on his website and social media accounts. He was really only looking for standard headshots (head and shoulders portraits) so that's all we made. Marty was a little bit uncomfortable at first but after we got going (and after a couple of jokes) he got used to the camera in front of him and he relaxed. We quickly went through several outfits and made some great portraits in each. I always want to make sure my clients have a variety of looks to choose from (depending on how the images are to be used) and I usually suggest using a couple of different outfits or backgrounds. In this case Marty showed up with 3 outfits and we used all of them. Marty's company, Top Level Developments, is a Calgary specialty concrete formwork company. They create beautiful architectural layouts for their customers and the attention to detail is immediately obvious. Top Level Developments believes in the fundamental principle of absolute dedication to its clients, offering a high ethical standard and professional grade products. Our goal is to be the preeminent provider of decorative and architectural concrete solutions for our clients. This is a high standard to meet and it is important that the quality of his business portrait matches up to the product that he provides to his customers! Is it time to update your Headshot? It's very important that the photo you use actually looks like you and that it represents the image you want to portray. So if you're still using a picture from a few years ago and have different glasses or tend to dress differently [...]
