Expertise in the e-commerce Industry
The reason that commercial/advertising photography (not photoshop) is the most costly segment in the photographic industry, is that by choosing a professional product shooter your sales conversion rates will increase as the images begin to bridge the 'trust gap', a common impediment that stands against any e-commerce sale. The photographer you select will represent your Brands' visual Image and bring it to the world of viewers. We are speaking of the 'Face' of your Brand that you are showcasing to the public. It's not just about capturing photos; it's about capturing outstanding, hi resolution images that tell the story of you Brand. A STILL image has No script, No actors, No motion, No audio! As a Stills photographer - ONE humble, static and silent STILL image is all I have to capture the your eye in a half second and MOST importantly, to HOLD the attention of your eye for 3 to 4 seconds. In the world of commercial photography, THAT is called a masterpiece! My job is to find that beauty, that Hero Shot in the humblest of items, such as a pair of athletic shoes, a hood ornament or a tennis ball. I love images that are clean, simple, mindfully composed, free of clutter, beautifully luminescent with gigs of mad resolution! Use the contact me feature and let's schedule a 6 minute discovery phone call to see if we are a good fit in this exciting creative endeavor. If you would like to elevate your brand, acquire and retain new customers as well as need new product images and a update on your website, we should chat. The type of photography I offer is especially important if your sales are EXCLUSIVELY online! I've had the incredible opportunity to assist regional and international brands achieve their sales goals. In working with clients to target their specific needs and together we come up with concept, plan, schedule and execute the shoot. These carefully crafted images have so much IN them and have so much riding ON them! I'm passionate about supporting my clients every step of the way. Once comissioned by you, I'll be excited to listen to your vision of the future and how I can best assist you.

...about me
Aloha
Please allow me to introduce myself, my name is Les Heri and I am a bi-coastal, conceptual Visual Branding specialist. I attended the legendary Germaine School of Photography in N.Y.C. graduating with honors from their Professional Commercial Photography program. Some clients who have commissioned me to produce images have commented to me that my commercial images, have a 'zen like' feel to them. That is not surprising to me because my favorite artistic medium of all time is Japanese woodblock prints, including the works of Hiroshige and Hokusai (I own prints by each artist) and my favorite photographers have been Bert Stern, Hiro and Hashi. The reason that commercial/advertising photography is the most expensive genre in the photographic industry is that YOUR profits increase because of the investment you make in the images. It's not just about capturing images; it's about capturing moments to tell the story of YOUR brand/product! A STILL photographic image; has no script, no actors, no motion, no dialogue, and no audio!As a still photographer, I have a 1/2 second and only ONE still image to, stop your world, capture the your eye in 1/2 a second and MOST importantly, to HOLD the attention of your eye for 3 to 4 seconds. In the world of commercial photography, THAT is called a masterpiece! My job is to find that beauty, that Hero Shot, in the humblest of items such as a pair of shoes, a hood ornament or a tennis ball. Personally, I have always loved images that are clean, simple, balanced, beautifully illuminated with tons of mad resolution! THAT'S how I landed in Advertising product photography! I don't shoot Flat Lay or White background, but I AM the guy who's featured Lifestyle product Banner photos on your site-SELL the product in the catalogue ordering section of your site. Let's schedule a 6 minute discovery phone call to see if we are a good fit in this exciting endeavor designed to elevate your brand and update your website with exciting images of your products. My Visual Branding style of commercial product photography is especially important to you if your business model utilizes e-commerce! After all, who you choose to Visually represent you and your Brand is a crucial decision that should be made in a thoughtful and mindful way. The images produced will live on LONG after, selection of the photographer, has been made!
