Walking in the City with Crystal
By Jessica Lee
Crystal's urban portrait session redefined corporate headshots by incorporating the energy of the city. As a financial executive who wanted to break from sterile office backgrounds, we created powerful images that showed her commanding presence in real-world contexts - crossing streets, leaning against architectural details, and interacting with the urban environment.


The session's innovation came from using the city's geometry - reflections in glass towers framed her like living art, while leading lines in sidewalks and railings directed attention to her confident posture. We balanced natural light with subtle off-camera flash to maintain professional polish while preserving the authentic urban vibe.
