Headshot photographer in Málaga

Málaga has sun on 320 days a year, and that is the problem with taking a team’s headshots by the office window. A south-facing window in Málaga moves from soft at nine to hard and warm by two, so the first person and the fortieth end up in different weather. The way round it is to stop using the window: the set goes up in a meeting room away from the glass, with the same two lights, background and camera height for everyone. In winter a room with a south window is the one exception, since the sun is low and gentle. Otherwise it is closed blinds and controlled light, so a team page reads as one company rather than forty separate afternoons.

When to book in Málaga

The time of year changes very little indoors, but the day of the week does. Mondays fill up with meetings and Fridays empty early in summer, when many Málaga offices work a shorter day, so mid-week mornings get the most people through in the best state. In July and August staff arrive from outside with heat on their faces; a quarter of an hour in the air-conditioned office first is worth it. Plan around the Feria week in mid-August, when part of the team is off and the centre is hard to reach, and around Holy Week if the office is near the processional route. Late arrivals and new joiners can be photographed months later with the same lights, background and distance, so the page stays consistent.
