Hybrid Startup Team Headshots for Distributed Companies

Companies are rarely in one place for long. Our hybrid approach combines in-person New York photography with remote capture, so distributed professionals can still receive consistent headshots that look like one connected production.

Photograph your New York team in person while remote employees shoot from anywhere in New York or nationwide. All final headshots are matched for lighting, background, crop, and retouching so the company page feels cohesive.

In-Studio NYC Shooting

Core company members shoot in our 545 8th Avenue Midtown studio with controlled lighting, modern equipment, and production support designed for busy founders and professionals.

Remote Team Capture

Remote professionals use the CLOS App with real-time guidance from an experienced headshot photographer, keeping the process simple while matching the quality of the in-person session.

Seamless Visual Matching

Advanced post-production brings lighting, backgrounds, crop, and retouching together so the final images work across websites, investor materials, pitch decks, press profiles, and LinkedIn profiles.

The Startup Challenge

Your company may have a founder in New York, product leaders in San Francisco, engineers in Austin, and advisors abroad. Traditional photography can leave you with different lighting, different photographers, mismatched backgrounds, and headshots that do not feel like one brand.

Flying everyone to New York City is expensive, and hiring separate photographers in every city can create more inconsistency, more scheduling work, and more editing problems.

The Startup Solution

Photograph your New York team in our professional studio or at your office. Then photograph remote professionals through the same visual system. We guide each person, match the look, and deliver final images that feel like they were produced together.

Result: your team page, investor materials, pitch decks, press profiles, and hiring pages look professionally photographed in one visual language, even when the company is distributed.

Startup Success Story

A SaaS company needed headshots for 15 professionals: five in New York, four in San Francisco, three in Austin, and three international. Match Production photographed the New York group in person, then guided the remaining team through remote sessions using matching lighting and background direction.

The final About page looked cohesive, professional, and modern. The team avoided travel costs, kept the shoot day simple, and received consistent corporate headshots that supported recruiting, fundraising, and a cleaner personal brand presence for each leader.

"We saved over $11,000 in travel costs and got better, more consistent corporate headshots than trying to coordinate multiple local photographers." — SaaS Startup CEO
