Corporate Photography Services in NYC
Introduction: The Scope and Value of Corporate Photography Services
Corporate photography services are essential for modern businesses that need trust, consistency, and speed. For many business leaders, corporate photography sits alongside commercial photography—the difference is that corporate photography work is built around people, schedules, and privacy. Our photographers bring the same professional photography standards to every portrait, every studio setup, and every corporate event, so clients get a consistent look across photos, images, and video.
In practice, corporate photography is commercial photography built for business: portraits that make leaders look credible, photography that documents a corporate event without chaos, and photography that supports your site, your internal site tools, and your next event announcement. These services cover professional headshots, executive portraits, company culture photos, location-based photography, and corporate event coverage—so the photos you share feel intentional, not improvised.
At Match Production, we specialize in three core areas of corporate photography services: corporate headshots NYC, executive portraits, and remote headshots. Our corporate photography is built for PR and comms leads, HR and employer brand teams, founders, and executives who need reliable, professional images that reflect company identity and values. Whether your business is in Manhattan, spread across multiple locations, or hiring globally, our services are designed to fit real schedules and diverse locations.
Professional corporate photography matters because it creates a professional image that builds trust, showcases expertise, and makes a business feel human. High-quality photos and photographs reinforce brand credibility, help attract and retain employees, and make a company more memorable to clients, investors, and stakeholders. When corporate photography is done well, the photos feel cohesive, the images feel intentional, and the portraits feel like the real person—just on their best day.
This guide explains how our corporate photography services deliver professional, on-brand images—with a focus on corporate headshot photography, executive portrait work, remote portrait workflows, and corporate event coverage (including event photography for conferences and trade shows) across various industries.
What you’re really buying is a set of services that keeps a business moving: professional portraits for your leadership team, professional photos for your team page, and event coverage services that document a corporate event without pulling people out of meetings. Our photographers plan, capture, and deliver with clear process, strong quality control, and the expertise to keep results consistent across studio days, office days, and remote days.
As we move forward, let's explore how our corporate headshot workflow ensures brand consistency for teams of all sizes.
Corporate Headshots NYC: Studio and On Location Workflow
Booking and Planning
Corporate headshots NYC are about consistent portraits at scale. We run corporate headshot photography as a repeatable process so a company can update professional headshots for a whole team—from a small leadership team to a full department team—10 people in a morning, or hundreds across multiple days—without the photos looking like a patchwork. This is corporate photography for business operations: efficient, calm, and consistent.
How we scope a typical office shoot:
Headcount and roles (so we size the photography crew and the schedule)
Location (Midtown, FiDi, DUMBO, or another NYC office location)
Target dates and deadlines (including any same day needs tied to a corporate event)
Brand references (so the portraits match your website and your site layout)
We respond with clear schedule blocks, a simple process, and prep notes—so your business can keep moving and you know exactly what services you’re getting. If you need professional headshots that match an existing style, we ask for a reference gallery so we can match lighting, framing, and retouching.
On Location Workflow
On location headshots NYC days run with precision. Our photographers arrive 60 to 90 minutes before the first subject to build a mini studio setup, dial in lighting, and run test shots. Two photographers can run parallel stations when a larger team needs professional photos in a tight business window. We build redundancy into the photography kit so the day doesn’t hinge on a single point of failure—because corporate photography is still a job, and the job is to deliver.
During each session, we capture a short sequence designed to find best angles fast. Each person sees photos live via tethered preview, so there’s no guessing. Our photographers guide posture and expression in plain language, and we capture enough options that clients leave the session confident.
Image Selection and Delivery
After the session, clients choose favorites on set or via a private online gallery, and our photographers flag the most professional options for quick selection. We apply consistent color and exposure so the full set of images reads as one collection—professional photos that look like they belong together.
Proofs: typically same or next business day (depending on scope)
Final retouched photographs: typically 3 to 5 business days after selections
Same day headshots NYC: available when pre-arranged for press, PR, or an event deadline
Times Square Studio Option
Our Times Square studio is ideal for individuals and small groups who want control and speed. A studio session is efficient: the studio lighting is consistent, the studio backgrounds are ready, and the studio environment stays calm. Many clients choose the studio when they need professional headshots quickly, when office logistics are messy, or when they want studio-quality photos without interruptions.
Studio address: 545 8th Ave, New York, NY (Times Square / Midtown). For a fast turnaround, a studio-based process is often the most reliable option.
While team headshots are essential for brand consistency, executive portraits require a more tailored approach, which we cover next.
Executive Portraits and Leadership Photography
Pre-Session Planning
Executive portraits are strategic corporate photography sessions for leaders, built on professional photography craft and a clear business brief. The goal is to capture a handful of hero portraits that work across platforms: web page leadership pages, press kits, speaker bios, investor decks, and internal comms. Good executive photography balances authority and approachability, so the images read well at thumbnail size and at large banner size—an amazing result when you’re updating a company presence fast.
Pre-session planning includes:
A short consult to confirm usage, message, and timeline
Styling direction aligned to the company and the role
A shot list that maps to deliverables (tight crop, three-quarter, environmental)
Session Formats
Depending on the business need, we offer:
A 60 to 90 minute studio session in our Times Square studio
A half-day location session at an office location with environmental portraits
A 20 to 30 minute micro session when the schedule is tight
On-Set Experience
On set, our photographers adjust lighting for different moods, guide wardrobe choices, and review photos live to narrow down to the strongest images. The goal is a professional image that looks like the person (not a retouched stranger), delivered in a consistent, unique style that fits the brand.
As leadership portraits set the tone for your brand, it's equally important to ensure your distributed teams look unified. Next, we explain how remote headshots and hybrid team solutions achieve this.
Remote Headshots and Hybrid Teams
Why Remote Headshots Matter
Remote headshots matter because distributed business is now normal. A company can have HQ in NYC, leaders traveling, and employees in other cities—and still need portraits that look unified on the website. Remote corporate photography solves that: we deliver professional headshots to people we can’t physically reach, then match those images to your studio and location photography.
Remote Headshots Process
Our process is simple and repeatable:
We set a baseline: camera, background, and light
We schedule 10 to 15 minute sessions and direct posing live on a secure video call
We capture frames that match your existing corporate photography look
The difference is direction. Without direction, people upload photos that feel accidental. With professional photography direction, we capture portraits that sit next to NYC portraits without visual whiplash.
Remote vs. In-Person Headshots: Process Comparison
| Aspect | Remote Headshots | In-Person Headshots |
|---|---|---|
| Setup | Virtual, guided via video call | On-site or studio setup with pro lighting |
| Direction | Live coaching through screen | In-person coaching and adjustments |
| Consistency | Matched to brand style in post-production | Consistent lighting and background on set |
| Scheduling | Flexible, accommodates remote schedules | Scheduled blocks at office or studio |
| Outcome | Unified look with remote convenience | Unified look with in-person experience |
Post-Production and Delivery
In post-production, we standardize exposure, color, and crops so the photos and photographs align with your in-person images. We also deliver web-ready images for your website and internal site tools, plus alternate crops when needed—and, when your scope includes it, we align still photos with short video clips so your website and social posts feel cohesive.
With your team’s portraits unified, the next step is to capture your company’s story in action. Let’s look at how our event coverage brings your brand to life.
Corporate Event Coverage and Event Photography
Corporate event coverage is where corporate photography meets real-time logistics. A corporate event can be a press day, an investor meeting, a panel, a conference, a product launch, a client dinner, or internal milestones. Event photography is different from portraits: it requires photographers who can capture moments quickly, stay invisible when needed, and still deliver clean, usable photos—professional photography under real event pressure.
We regularly cover a corporate event in NYC with the same production mindset as our studio work, using professional photography discipline in real time:
Event photography coverage includes:
Keynote moments, speaker interactions, and attendee portraits
Branded details and environmental photos for post-event recaps
A consistent set of images that clients can use on the website, social, and press outreach
We also cover event photography for trade shows and conferences. Trade shows are high-speed corporate event environments, so we plan around the run of show and the booth schedule. For trade shows, we capture meetings, demos, and the moments that make the event feel real. For conferences and trade shows, we coordinate with organizers so we can capture the right moments without interrupting the event.
If your next event includes a headshot activation, we can run a mini studio setup for professional headshots while other photographers cover the corporate event. This hybrid approach is an amazing, professional way to maximize one day of corporate photography and reduce extra scheduling.
To understand how these services come together, let’s walk through a real NYC example of a press day with headshots, executive portraits, and video.
Real NYC Example: A Press Day With Headshots, Executive Portraits, and Video
Late in 2024, a tech company booked corporate photography for a press-day corporate event at a Midtown venue. The scope included professional headshots for guests, executive portraits for three founders, and video interviews for social and PR. We provided event photography throughout the event.
Event schedule:
8:00 a.m. crew call for load-in and set build
9:30 a.m. first executive portrait
10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. rolling portraits plus event coverage between panels
Lunch: video capture for B-roll and testimonials
We delivered a same day preview set for press and social, then delivered the full gallery of photos, photographs, and video selects on the agreed timeline. A keynote speaker arrived late and the corporate event schedule shifted; we re-stacked the queue and still captured press-ready images.
To ensure every project runs smoothly, our production process is designed for clarity and consistency. Here’s how we manage your project from first email to final files.
Our Production Process
From First Email to Final Files: Step-by-Step
Discovery
Most projects start with a short email from clients: “We need corporate photography for a team update and a corporate event next week.”
We confirm goals, deadlines, locations, and how the photos will be used.
Then we propose a process that fits the business.
Estimate and Scheduling
We quote clearly in USD and outline the services: hours, photographers, studio or location needs, retouch counts, and delivery targets.
We schedule around meetings and office rhythms, and we build buffers because corporate event schedules shift.
Shoot Day
On shoot day, we arrive early, build the studio setup (or location setup), run test shots, and keep the line moving.
Our photographers coach quickly, capture consistent photos, and keep the experience calm.
We also capture a small set of “insurance” photos for each person so nobody is stuck with a single option.
Editing and Delivery
We cull, color-correct, and retouch with restraint.
We run quality checks and quality assurance so the photographs feel consistent across the company and across different services.
Delivery is through a secure gallery, with file naming that helps clients share images internally without confusion.
Once your project is complete, you’ll receive a set of files and formats designed for every business need. Let’s review what you can expect.
What You Receive: Files, Formats, and Consistency
We think about where images will live long term: company websites, LinkedIn profiles, internal tools, and press requests.
Deliverables typically include:
High-resolution photographs for print
Web-optimized photos for your website and site pages
Crops for LinkedIn and internal profiles
Consistent exposure and color across the full set of images
