Headshot Photography, Los Angeles

A lot has happened at Vanie Poyey Photography with traveling to Japan etc. and I am finally catching up on posting some new work.

We start off with Kaleigh Longmeyer, daughter of Noelle Longmeyer, who I also photographed for her real estate headshots.  Kaleigh is one of the cutest girls I’ve worked with in a long time!

Alongside Kaleigh is Paris Delgado, another very charismatic young man…if I can call him that.  Watch out girls this one is a heart-breaker in training!

Jonathan Godfrey knew exactly what he wanted when he came to me.  The images really show specific marketing looks because of his concise vision.

This very handsome boy here is  Grant Gelner.  Is it just me or does he look like he was born to be on the CW?

Byron Lane was the sweetest and was referred to me by my friend and fellow photographer, Suthi Picotte.  He was such a blast to work with and had great range!

Gregory was an absolute blast and reminded me of a young George Clooney!

Clementina was such a pleasure to work with.  She was easy going, full of energy and that gorgeous hair…makes you want red hair!

Claudia Choi is the pro!  Knows her market, knows what she wants, and knows how to give it with very little direction.  We had a great time on the shoot.  We wish you great luck Claudia!

These next two were so talented you can almost hear what they are saying through these images.  The beautiful blonde is Sarah Haworth and the edgy guy is Gordon Grey.

This striking British boy is Julian Graham.  Unfortunately we were asked for a re-shoot since his agent was not happy with the color of his shirt (being pink)…and apparently he was squinting.  I’m always conscientious of sensitivity to light and always ask if my client is squinting.  Although in this case we were told “no”, it turns out, that wasn’t so!  Folks, it’s always too late after the fact, but there is a fix to almost every problem in post.  Our solution was to change the color of his shirt and open his eyes a bit, and voila, pink becomes blue and eyes no longer squint!   We do have a strict re-shooting policy, especially regarding clothing and squinting (since I always ask).  When we agree on clothing during a photo shoot, I can’t justify a re-shoot if your agent doesn’t agree, only because I can’t read your agent’s mind if he/she is not present.  Our solution was not good enough for Julian…let us know your thoughts!

Patricia Chamroonrat is just filled with joy and spunk.  We had a great day with her all over town!

Marisa Vitta’s edgy and quirky attitude in these images say it all.

Todd Wilkerson is truly a hysterical person.   From his answering machine message to his witty humor on the scene, everything he did made us laugh!

Rebecca actually came to us all the way from New York.  She was in LA and sought me out to have her headshots done while in town!

Southey Blanton is a true gentleman.  He was so kind and easy going it really made the long day go by in a flash.  We wish you the best Southey!

We really loved Vanessa Huntoon’s style.  She could pull off everything from girl next door to edgy fashion diva.

Kira Davis, look at that range…need I say more?  Here she portrays the beautiful girl next door alongside the edgy bad girl.

This blonde siren is Nicole Sully.   She went from edgy vixen to the nice, commercial gal in no time at all!

Katherine Shearer is a complete beauty.  The best part is her Australian accent!

Those gorgeous blue eyes really shine with Mindy Montavon’s great personality.  She was just as easy as can be and a joy to get to know!

This beautiful, yet edgy gal is Lauren Howard.  Gents beware…

Jenny M. Rich was so much fun to work with.  Even though she’s a bit new, she knew exactly how to work the camera.

Photos of DJs and Musicians

I was recently approached by a local DJ, Kevin Layo, to take some promotional photos for him.

It was a challenging shoot and a nice change of pace.

We photographed everything from him jumping into his pool, fully dressed, to him lighting turn tables on fire!

Here is a little peak.

More pictures from the last two weeks!

We start off this round with Adam Arbon, a great improv guy.  I don’t think he even knew he could go with the flow as well as he did.  Watch out world, this one is quick and witty!

This lovely gal is Veronika Duerr.  She is the classic beauty with a bit of a tortured soul, or so it seems…

Our repeat client of the month is Jordan Davis,  but this time I was honored with a repeat repeat.  This is Jordan’s third time working with me, and the third time using his irresistible charm!

Eric Bingham was so easy to work with and had a lot of range!

The down to earth beauty is Jessie Sherman.  I loved her curls and wanted to really emphasize it in these images with the backlight.

Jamie Hyder will do really well as she’s not only beautiful but talented.
