Professional Headshot Photographer; Vanie Poyey

We love treating our clients to a day of fun when they come in for their session.   Here are a few people we had the chance to work with over the last couple of months.  Thank you all for making our days interesting!

George Fisher, a repeat client,  found me again after a ten year hiatus from the business.   He was just as much fun to work with this time around as he was ten years ago!  George, please don’t tell them about the “Vanie” from ten years ago.  Shhhh.

Occasionally, we have requests for Modeling ZED Card sessions.  We usually create four different looks for the back of the ZED Card.  Here is an example from Jose’s shoot.   Ladies check out those abs!

Jamie also needed a “body shot” for fitness.  As you can see, she really showcases her range in these photos.  Good luck Jamie!

Santino on the left reminds us of the “nice cop”  on Heroes.  Paul Vroom on the right looks like he just stepped out of an episode of Law & Order!

Thanks for making it a fun day guys.

Derek is the third member of his family to do headshots with me!  His brother and dad are both past clients.   Thanks Brent for starting the trend and keeping the tradition.  We wish Derek all the luck, not that he needs it!

These two ladies have a way of seducing the viewer!  Krystal on the left is showing some strong attitude, while Tiwana on the right, exudes confidence.

This was the second time I had the chance to work with Liza.  She needed a re-shoot since she recently became a brunette.  In the past, she’s  gotten a lot of compliments from her last shoot as a blond (see our gallery), and I’m sure the compliments will continue!

Courtney, the gal with the amazing blond hair, was so quirky during our shoot, she really made it effortless for me.  Teena came in and did a friend session with her mom!  These sessions are always a blast and as a bonus, we give a generous discount!

Dana has such an amazing range.  She went from a very warm, funny character to a hard edged persona in no time.  Slumber party Dana?

This beautiful red head is Samantha.  Perfect for the CW!  Good luck Samantha!

David Chung is a perfect example of male clients who use facial hair to vary up their look.  Clean shaven, he easily pulls off the young dad, while with some scruff, he becomes the edgier heart breaker!

Watch out Hollywood, here comes Nikki.  Check out that range!  She can destroy you and be your best friend at the same time.

It’s always a fun day when I have clients that make me laugh.  I had the pleasure of working with these two in the same month!  Allen, a very talented comedian had me laughing so hard, I had to put the camera down. Kyle reminds me of Seth Rogan.   He was so easy to shoot, the day was over before it started!

Shannon is another one with incredible eyes.  She just completely captivates the camera and demands your attention.

Markeia has so much range she looks like two completely different people here.  The secret? Great talent and a great wig!

You can just tell from these photos that Kelly is energetic and full of fun!  She really allowed for her creativity to come through. Say hi to our friends in Santa Barbara Kelly!

Coming soon, we’ll be comparing headshots before internet directories were born, and how they were different from today’s headshots.

Recent Los Angeles Headshots

Lately, I’ve been extremely busy with various projects…knock on wood.

Coming soon, my latest corporate work, but for now, here are some headshots from the last two weeks.

Starting off the new work is Kimberly Douglas, Charles’s gal.

If you don’t know Charles, he has shot with me enough times, and stopped by the place enough times, to have weaseled his way into our friendship.

Kimberly is a hoot and has some big plans for Charles and for herself of course!

Here are some shots I did for Kelly Noonan.  She was referred to me by her agent at Beth Stein & Associates.  A pleasure to work with, and isn’t she peerrrty?

Another recent client, Heather Pier, a true Montana gal, found me through her agent, Jana Luker.

Nate Beals, the new kid on the scene, found me through Backstage West.  Mom accompanied us on the shoot and the four of us (makeup artist included) had one big happy day.

Sophie Kirov, here from Australia after backpacking all over the world!  She’s quite the adventures type and is diving right in.  Good luck Sophie.

Finally, the Paolella Kids, are all working to get in the business.

Paige is the eldest daughter, Hayley is the middle child, and Ryan is the youngest of the bunch.  All are full of personality…and all are adorable!

John Liddiard, a first time client, and a really sweet husband with a little boy that looks just like a mini John!

Terrie Simmons, a repeat repeat repeat repeat client.  Love her to death…and not just because she single-handedly pays my bills.  She’s a great gal from Texas and our “girl time” during the shoot is always full of  laughter!

Liz Beckham, a first time client and sooo easy to work with.  As a couple of short gals, we share a little secret…you’ll never guess!
