Nationwide Corporate Photographer
One photographer, every office. I am based in San Francisco and travel nationwide for corporate work, photographing headshots, office lifestyle imagery, and events with one consistent look across every location.
Why Multi-Office Companies Hire a Traveling Photographer
The most common trigger is a website revamp or rebrand at a company with offices in more than one city. Hiring a different local photographer in each market produces photos that do not match: different lighting, different posing, different retouching. The mismatch is obvious the moment the team page goes live. One photographer who travels to every office solves it, and it is usually simpler to manage too, because you deal with one vendor, one shot list, and one delivery instead of four.
What I Shoot on the Road
Most travel programs combine two or three things in a single visit per office: a headshot setup with studio lighting in a conference room, candid office lifestyle coverage of teams actually working, and executive portraits for leadership. I bring the same equipment and the same approach to every city, which is what keeps a 150-person program shot across four offices looking like one shoot. For larger productions I bring a trusted crew of up to 10, and every shoot is led by me personally.
Where I Go
Regular corporate work takes me to New York, Chicago, Dallas, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Seattle, Austin, and Denver, alongside my home base across the San Francisco Bay Area. If your city is not on that list, it just means I have not been there this quarter. I fly in the evening before so travel never touches your coverage.
How a Multi-City Program Works
We start with a planning call: your city list, headcount per office, and where the photos will live. I build one schedule and one flat quote for the whole program. On shoot days I move office to office with the same setup, and your team gets one curated, consistently edited gallery per location, delivered on one timeline. Editorial credentials from 15 plus years with AFP mean your executives are in experienced hands, in any city.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you travel for corporate shoots?
Yes. I am based in San Francisco and travel nationwide for corporate work, with regular shoots in New York, Chicago, Dallas, and Las Vegas. Travel is planned into the schedule and quoted flat.
Can you shoot headshots and office lifestyle photos on the same trip?
Yes, and most multi-office clients book exactly that. A typical office visit covers a headshot setup in a conference room plus candid office lifestyle coverage of the team at work, so each location needs only one visit.
How does travel pricing work?
Flat and predictable. I quote the whole program as one project: shoot fees per day plus travel built into the number, so a four-city program prices as one line item instead of four separate vendors with four separate estimates.
Why hire one traveling photographer instead of a local photographer in each city?
Consistency. Different photographers mean different lighting, posing, and editing, and the mismatch shows the moment headshots sit side by side on your team page. One photographer traveling to every office produces one consistent look across the entire company.
