Corporate Portraiture — Location & Professional Style

Professional individual portrait at location setting, IJmuiden — expression, posture, environment as part of the image

Refreshing your corporate image can go beyond a plain headshot. With these portrait shots, I chose a location setting to give energy, depth, and context to the professional look — the kind that helps profiles, business cards, and LinkedIn stand out.

Instead of studio lighting or a blank wall, I used natural surroundings that complement without distracting — lines, textures, and background architecture balancing out the frame. The focus is on posture, expression, attire, and how light falls. A location shot conveys more: connection to place, personality, and professionalism. If you’re considering an updated corporate image, thinking about environment and lighting makes a difference.

Elevate your professional image with portraiture that says more than just your face. For more work in this area, explore my People and Portraiture galleries, or get in touch to arrange your own session.

The offshore scaffolder. 

They put up and take down scaffolding that allow offshore workers to reach higher levels during construction, decommissioning, maintenance or cleaning tasks.

Today we meet, the small team involved in feeding and looking after all 80 workers, on a North Sea oil and gas platform. 

These guys do a fantastic job, with such a small team in cleaning, preparing meals and trying to keep moral high for a large crew of guys. Who are working hard in all weathers, away from home for long periods, missing their families.

It is un-measurable their involvement, but any rig worker will tell you, that a clean accommodation and a good hearty meal, makes for a happy crew.

Well... Hello, its been a while. 

Lets catch up, 

Most will know, that my day job is working in the oil and gas industry.

Since January i have been involved with the decommissioning of a north sea oil and gas rig, called the BP Miller. 

The picture taking had to take a back seat. The next post will explain in more detail what the project entails. 

But stick around, i have uploaded lots of content which will be coming out on a weekly basis, a new post every Sunday. 

So please subscribe, and follow the story and images of life offshore in the oil and gas industry on a decommissioning project. 

Thanks

Lee
