In-Studio: Lifestyle Coach Headshots/Portrait Session

Sunny is a lifestyle coach, business consultant, and public speaker who lives and works in both Miami and NYC. This was our second shoot together (our first one was ‘street-style’ up in Manhatan), and he wanted to have this one at my studio. We took the traditional indoor headshots using two 45 degree softbox lights plus a speedlight, then headed up to the rooftop for some outdoor shots in natural light.

Here are some of my favorite images from this shoot (click/tap to view full size and un-cropped):

All images in this blog post were shot on a Nikon D750, using both a Nikkor 50mm f/1.8 prime lens and a 24-85mm f/3.5-4.5 zoom lens, all individually post-processed in Adobe Lightroom using custom-built presets.
