Bryan is one of those men who exudes a quiet confidence and gives you the impression that there is a lot going on underneath the surface. He is an outdoorsman, an Olympian, a former ski jumper in the ’92 Olympic winter games in Albertville France. He is one of those guys who makes you feel safe in the knowledge that he would know what to do in just about any situation. He loves to play golf, to fish and hunt, and to work on his cabin situated in a stunningly beautiful location facing the Porcupine Mountains in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. With all this in mind, it would seem that photos of Bryan should be rustic, outdoorsy, athletic types of photos… but those will have to wait for another shoot. Bryan needed some professional photos for a new business venture so we took to the urban landscape… and Bryan donned a suit. I think the results are pretty compelling… to say the least… and are a reminder to all you guys out there who need to update your visual portfolio for today’s social media and web culture.

I think one of the most important things about a good headshot is that it project confidence… and these images have that in spades…

I love the eye contact that Bryan makes with the camera… it creates an immediacy in the images that is timeless.

And just to bring this post about Bryan full circle, I have to give you a glimpse into that rustic, outdoorsy side, as well as the amazing view from his cabin. Bryan is certainly a multi-faceted guy… and one of the kindest, most thoughtful men you will ever encounter.
