What's Happening :: Right Now
A number of our golf stock photos (like the one above) can be seen in a new and humorous TV commercial spoofing Tiger. Check it out.
~~~~~~~~ With our commercial - advertising photo shoots, we work with a variety of talent and models. And, when people we know do wonderful work, we like to spread the word. One of our absolute favorites is Shari Wiedmann. We worked with her a few months ago on a two-day shoot on a ranch for a national eye wear company. What a great person and talent! Shari is co-starring as the wife in a music video which just won a GMA Dove Award AND the video has surpassed one million views on YouTube. Pretty cool. Just click on the video to view.

Stories From The Road :: This Tangled Web Untangling all the circumstances which brought this Arizona corporate photographer to a factory on the outskirts of Chihuahua, Mexico is quite fascinating. A marketing person for a large international tool builder had been assigned to find an international annual report photographer to meet with her boss in Mexico for a commercial photography shoot they were planning.
Like many of our clients, this woman found us through the internet using specific keywords in her search. Our commercial photography company was listed on the first search page for Corporate Photographer. We spoke, then arranged the flight, and she gave me the name of her boss who I would meet in Mexico. His name sounded familiar but it was quite a common name, nonetheless. As you might have guessed, the stranger I met with in Chihuahua was a guy from my old Iowa high school and - get this - a cousin of the woman I married. I hadn't seen him in 20+ years. It truly was a surprise to us both. Life's twists are often remarkable. For these corporate and annual report photographers based in Arizona, it's all about creating the image. But sometimes what happens behind the camera between client and photographer just clicks! We love this business. |
The Economy :: As We See It
For 2009, we didn't experience our best year in 25, financially. But more importantly, it was our best creatively. Though we, as many others, found 2009 challenging, we're seeing a marked increase in new photo projects for this new year. We know there are other photographers out there for you to research. But we haven't succeeded for 25 years without doing something right. Let us do something right for you. Call or shoot us an email when you're ready. |
There is little question question a bruised and battered economy has affected most American commercial photographers. Yet, some segments of the U.S. economy are gaining strength. Last year's numbers reveal our national and international business photography client base had surpassed 50 percent of our assignment work. The other 50 percent work is throughout Arizona.
