Grosslight Insurance
Background - Grosslight, a partner of PCF Insurance Services, a big player in the consultancy and brokerage game, was gearing up for a website revamp. They realized they needed to spruce up their online presence with some fresh headshots of their 30+ team members. But, ah, there was a hitch – Covid was still lurking around like an uninvited guest at a party.
Treatment - Now, here’s where the plot thickens. After some brainstorming sessions with Grosslight’s in-house marketing squad, we hatched a plan. We figured the best way to tackle this headshot hurdle was to bring the show to SoCal, where some of their employees were working remotely. Three days, my studio in Chinatown Los Angeles, and 28 eager faces ready to shine for the camera – that was the game plan.
Solution - But hold your horses, we weren’t about to throw caution to the wind. Oh no, sir! We were all about keeping things Covid-compliant. Masks on, social distancing in place – safety first, folks.
So, what’s the endgame? Well, over those three action-packed days, we snapped headshots galore, making sure every employee got their moment in the spotlight. Talk about a whirlwind of smiles, poses, and maybe a few nervous laughs thrown in for good measure. But hey, mission accomplished – Grosslight got their snazzy new headshots, and we kept Covid at bay. Win-win, if you ask me!

It was a great location that was easy to find and made it easy to get everyone in and out quickly and efficiently. I would highly recommend and we will continue to use him for all of our photo needs for the company going forward." – Google Review
