Congratulations to Richard Esteras, who won a headshot from me a few years ago. Richard is building up a crazy resume that started with something like 11 independent and student films in one year. Just recently, Richard has been on Chicago PD, APB, and has a part in the movie DeathWish. You might be here because you read my article on the Second City website, 13 Things Taylor Swift Does That You Don't.

Executives
Report
As social media becomes more integrated with business, your image, your first impression, becomes even more important. I approach executive headshots with the same attention to detail that I use when photographing performers. I start by asking the professional what they want the image to say about them.

Report
When I worked for a college newspaper, we were always looking for great images to catch people's attention. But first, you need a photo that gets their attention. That's where I come in. Three of them were submitted to newspapers, and three of them were printed. Its a lot cheaper then printing hundreds of flyers and spending days on end distributing them.
Auction House
Report
One of my favorite assignments was working for an auction firm here in Chicago. When you photograph antiques and collectibles, you receive an education every day. On this day, the account executives from the auction house asked me to accompany them to the home of a client. The 4-sided couch in the center was up for sale.
Testimonials
Report
I took a workshop with Jodi Collins, a top casting director in New York, and she felt that my headshot was the best in the class. She said that my photo looked more like me, than did anyone else's match. She also said that that's what they look for, and that you captured me perfectly. John was everything I could have hope for in a photographer.
