Here at Natural Studio, we shoot portraits and headshots of people that work and study in a variety of fields and disciplines in the New York City area. One area we specialize in is portraits and headshots for actors. We have worked with numerous actors including David Call, Conor Leslie, Ezra Miller, Bryan Dromherhauser, Tonya Glanz, and more. Whether you have already landed some big roles, or you are just starting out, please feel free to reach out to us for some updated shots. We would love to help you put your best face forward!

During the COVID-19 pandemic we had to slow things down here at Natural Studio, but we are very happy to now be fully reopened and shooting fully up to speed!

We are fully vaccinated, taking all precautions possible, and excited to once again be busy collaborating with talented individuals to create strong beautiful life-affirming images.

Please do not hesitate to reach out anytime—we would love to work with you.

Natural Studio loved working with NIV, an emerging fashion brand based in New York City. We shot images for their lookbook in one of our favorite studios in the Chelsea neighborhood of NYC. The designer’s artistry, honed in India, is expressed through her use of color and texture—resulting in a unique vision of refined simplicity.

Whether you wear glasses because you need to or you just like them for style reasons, keeping those frames on for some portraits can definitely be a great idea, especially if they are cool! So here’s to embracing your spectacles when you put your best face forward.

In our portrait and headshot photography, we always like to get honest straightforward images when working with talent. But we also have a passion for capturing ‘in between’ type moments that happen naturally as sometimes those are the images that feel the most authentic. It’s great to do a bit of both and just show different moods—especially as then the actor or model gets to reveal more personality and show their emotional range.

Natural Studio recently had the pleasure of working with MABU, the Brooklyn, New York based Architectural firm. We photographed some portraits of them in their own offices in the neighborhood of Williamsburg in Brooklyn. MABU is expanding and was doing a bit of rebranding, so it was great to be able to help them along in the process. We collaborated to come up with a collection of portraits and headshots that felt a bit more casual, relaxed, and fresh than what you might normally find in their field. It’s always a pleasure to work with other creatives based here in NYC.

At Natural Studio, we love natural light. Many times, we have been able to create some of our favorite portraits and headshots just by working with natural light. The reality though is that depending on only sunlight for a photo shoot can be a risky affair. Especially since we work in New York City, where depending on the weather year-round would not be practical. That’s why we became skilled at using the artificial light from professional strobe lights to create that same type of relaxed, airy, sunlit aesthetic. Light itself is one of our major inspirations. It’s often what makes a good photograph. So being in control of the light is a great thing as it allows us the freedom to focus on our subject, their expression, and all the other elements that make up a great image.
