Seattle Corporate Headshots Photographer Julian Michael

About Julian: I’m a native of the Seattle area, having roots on the south end back in my track & field and running days. These days based on the Eastside but used to traveling up and down I-5 and I-405 to meet new and interesting businesses and clients. I enjoy great BBQ and pizza just like the next guy. I’m typically seen on the golf course scrambling, out running on Greenlake or cooking and gathering with friends. I’m down to earth, I like to carry a good conversation and I enjoy what I do for a living.

Summer Portraits : Simplify With Denise | Bellevue & Seattle Headshot Photographer

Bellevue Professional Headshots Fun with Denise and Her Team

This is now the third time I’ve had the pleasure of working with Denise and what an organized group they certainly are! Boasting her new 2013 updated staff members and look, Denise was excited to get new headshots photography up onto her website. Simplify With Denise serves the greater Seattle and Bellevue markets for business, professional and corporate organizing, sometimes working 1-on-1 or with groups. Finishing up her session we took a nice group portrait to accompany their new individual headshots done on-location in Bellevue Park.

Contemporary & Stylish Headshots for Seattle Modeling Agencies

Get your next modeling gig by being prepared with your headshots and comp card

One of the great advantages of working with a modeling agency is that you will typically have a very high quality zed card (or comp card) prepared for you. Typically you will work with a seasoned photographer (maybe Julian Michael) to create a new series of images that display your variety and range as a model. From this session you will shoot in several outfits mixing up backgrounds, wardrobe, hair, and personality. For example we would explore the following depending on what is requested or styles you represent:

  • Fashion modeling photography
  • Sports modeling photography
  • Lifestyle modeling photography
  • Headshots photography
  • Glamour modeling photography
  • Urban modeling photography

Here are some examples of comp cards made for Sports Unlimited Modeling Agency based in Portland, Oregon and Los Angeles. Many of their models go on to work for Nike, Under Armour, Adidas, REI and many other sports and lifestyle brands.

Tacoma Business Headshots for Small Business & Corporate Professionals |

Professional Business Headshots in Tacoma and Kent | Julian Michael Seattle Corporate Headshot Photographer

So many times I have businesspeople contact me for their business headshot session and whether it’s for their small business or for corporate professional headshots, they share the same thing. “Julian, we made the mistake of not hiring you last time!” Basically saying to me, they had someone less skilled to photograph them.

tacoma professional business headshots kent puyallup renton tukwila

In the Tacoma and Southend areas such as Federal Way, Auburn, Kent, Maple Valley and Puyallup to name a few, it’s much more difficult to find a skilled photographer that can capture a variety of businesspeople in a variety of environments or styles. Many photographers have ‘one’ style and they have difficulty stepping outside of this. One of my joys is telling my clients, “it’s your style I’m aiming to capture, not mine.” My style is simply that you’re going to have a good experience, you’ll like what we’ve done, it will be painless and you will likely have a hard time selecting just one favorite!

Next time you consider getting your headshot done give Julian Michael a call and you’ll receive a much higher caliber experience than most all Southend photography studios.

Bruce, Class of 2012 Woodinville High School | Senior Pictures Seattle & Bellevue

Bruce is one of several Woodinville High School soccer team players I had the opportunity to work with for their senior pictures to create some cool magic! All of these guys were really cool and because of a couple GREAT moms on the team, they came to get the very best senior pictures in and around Bellevue or Seattle by Julian Michael!

Bruce brought his ‘classic’ guy gear, consisting of jeans, white tee and a couple jackets for his selection of senior pictures outfits. For one of his senior pictures outfits I had him in a very natural pose and he looked just like one of his buddy’s senior portrait sessions in Kirkland and Bellevue from the month before in 2011. Overall Bruce and his family were super happy with their selection of senior portraits to choose from and wound up with the image in the bottom-left of the collage on their wall as a wall portrait and ordered a really cool album with custom designs. Next time we’ll get their family together up in Mukilteo for a great family portrait. His sister only has a couple years until her senior pictures…time sure does fly!!

Leah, Class of 2012 Sammamish High School | Senior Pictures Seattle & Bellevue

What a great Seattle senior portrait session today as we downtown Seattle by the waterfront and Capital Hill’s rustic areas to create some fantastic senior pictures.

Leah brought several great senior pictures outfits and we had some great attire to choose from, including a fun elvis drop shoulder shirt with skinny jeans, a cute mini skirt with matching top and other cool senior gear. For one of her senior pictures outfits she wore this red, white and blue plaid shirt that reminded me of a senior portrait session in Lynnwood and Woodinville I did in 2010. Overall Leah was super happy with her selection of the best senior pictures she could possibly get by Julian Michael.

Family Portrait and Family Picture Photographer | Julian Michael

My oh my has this year flown by and we’re now into the summer family portraits timeframe! There are so many great locations in the greater Seattle, Bellevue, Woodinville, Lynnwood and Everett areas that I can pretty much just get a phone call about family pictures or childrens pictures and before I know it we’ve settled on a fun location for a great session.

Some of my favorite locations are Snoqualmie Valley, Alki Beach, Juanita Beach in Kirkland, and the beautiful countryside just behind Redmond Ridge, all producing fantastic family portrait sessions. Last summer I had the opportunity to take a drive into Snoqualmie with the family and produced some really funny pictures as you will see below.
