Headshots: Andy (San Francisco, CA)

I don’t mention it much on my blog, but my last corporate job was in the production department at an advertising agency. During my years there, I learned so much, got my hands onto so many new projects and worked on some big name clients. More importantly, I worked with some great people.

One of those people was Andy. Although he was in a different department, everyone at the company knew each other. This is one cool guy, and I always enjoyed talking photography with him. He’s got great technical skills and has so much knowledge about gear. As I was pursuing photography on the side, he and I would chat about lenses, light and experience.

I still return occasionally to help out doing freelance work and am happy to be called a “friend of the agency.” When Andy asked me to take some headshots for him during one of those stints, I agreed, but was definitely nervous, considering his knowledge. We headed up to the rooftop and had a quick photo session. Pretty sure I caught his best side.
