Denver Musician Portraits
It’s not too often that I get to bust out the toys to make some funky, fun portraits that stretch me creatively. James, aka Denver musician Sparkadiss, wanted portraits to use for online content. We started at Colle Collective, my studio in the Santa Fe Arts District, and did some portraits with lights and some plain backgrounds. We then ventured across the street to capture a few portraits with some murals before heading down an alley to find more cool backgrounds and textures.
Portraits and head shots are a fun opportunity to show your personality. Head shots don’t just have to be a white background with a suit. There is something about a clean, straightforward portrait that is nice. But I also love thinking outside of the box for some.
Whatever style you choose, let’s make your images pop on your website and social media. Forget using that image when you look great at a wedding where you cropped your date out. You need something more fun, more professional, more artistic.
If you’re a photographer and interested in a studio share to meet clients, do small sessions, etc, we have a few openings at Colle! Email me 🙂
