Capturing Character at Duke University Chapel
Life is a journey, ever-changing—a path marked by milestones: starting a business, raising children, or retiring from a career. These words (which I shamelessly pilfered and paraphrased from the O’Connor Wealth Management Group’s website) resonate as you step into the elegant halls of Duke University Chapel. Here, amidst the grandeur of stained glass and hallowed echoes, I met Sheridan and Sarah—the vibrant faces of O’Connor Wealth Management Group.
There’s so much business and necessity in professional headshots. It’s not like a stylized portrait session. People don’t schedule headshot sessions for the fun of it. Headshots are the face you put forward—the first bit of you a potential client sees when they seek your services. It needs to be sharp and clean. It needs to be just right and just so. But why can’t it be fun?
I love a client with personality. Sheridan and Sarah had personality in spades. Some people find standing in front of the lens daunting or uncomfortable. But it’s so easy to laugh in the face of the camera, to strike a silly pose and make the most of it despite suits and makeup. And that’s just what Sheridan and Sarah did. Because why not? Striking out on a new business venture is just another milestone in that long, ever-changing journey. Might as well enjoy it while we’re here and before we pass it by.
I had an absolute blast with these two. I had so much fun, I pulled the camera back and threw in some portraits just for the fun of it.
These weren’t just headshots; they were glimpses into the souls behind the balance sheets. We captured Sheridan’s confidence and Sarah’s warmth—their essence distilled into pixels. It reminded us that headshots aren’t mere formality; they’re bridges connecting credentials to character.
As the shutter clicked, I realized they have so many milestones to look forward to and I wish them the best in every one.
