Our Tulsa professional photography portfolio includes a national advertising campaign for Hard Rock Tulsa. We delivered branding and advertising photography to their advertising agency from a week long commercial shoot with two units and a full team of 20 photographers, producers, assistants, on camera talent, hair & makeup artists and support teams.   Those assets have been in use now for over 5 years and have bene visible on billboards, print and online to be viewed by countless potential customers and patrons.   That relationships has grown to include food and drink photography, architectural hotel photography, drone photography and video, and multiple forms of event photography including concerts, gaming promotional videos, celebrity meet and greets, golf tournaments and photo/video production of their world famous annual Halloween and New Years Eve parties.

Family & Children’s Services: multiple Event project branding

One of Tulsa’s finest non-profits, FCS is dedicated to helping vulnerable children and strengthening families by helping them get the help they need.   A great deal of the funding for this outreach comes from gala fundraising events like “The Party” and “Brainiac Ball” where attendees enjoy entertainment and fine dining while being engaged by Tulsa luminaries as speakers, chairs and emcees.     It’s been a great honor to work with this outstanding organization on branding for those two events with studio session work and cinematic graphic design to create cinematic, sometimes surreal pieces of cinematic branding art.   And the mixologists who serve the attendees get their own photoshoot each year too, blending their own unique personalities and looks, with a signature drink, and exclusive liquor branding.     These creative projects are a joy to produce and we look forward to them every year!   

Nowlin Orthodontics: Corporate Headshots, and patient portraits

We’ve worked with this Bixby and Glenpool based business since 2017, and have produced an incredible assortment of branding projects for them including, staff headshots, an updatable team composite, drone video, sponsorship commercials, testimonial patient interviews and holiday cards.    But the signature project for them has to be the 16×20 metallic print acrylic “Smiles” series of patient portrait we’ve shot, produced and hand delivered multiple times over the years.    Their offices are adorned with a rotation of these gorgeous portraits which show a smiling patient and list what their treatments are/were.    What a great testimonial to the wonderful work they do with their patients. 

Empowered Life Counseling:  Headshots, branding, video

Another fantastic life changing Tulsa business is Empowered Life.   We’ve had so much fun working with this team over the years, seeing them grow and become one of the most trusted counseling offices in Tulsa.  For them, we’ve done headshots, personal branding photography, an updatable team composite, office photography, drone and have done several features on the wonderful french bulldog service animal team they use as part of their professional services.
