312 Elements Photography

Specialties

One of the things that attracted us to the location of our new studio in the West Loop is the amazing natural light between the hours of 9:00 and 4:00 everyday. We offer a few different styles of headshots and we love natural light photography. Many of our clients come to us in need of comp cards, while others are looking for social media profile pictures. If you’re in Chicago, and you’re looking for a photographer for headshots, give us a call at 312.546.3582. We offer one, two, and three look headshot packages, as well as custom plans that cater to any unique needs you might have. As a headshot photographer, it’s my job to evoke emotion in your images and I do that through a series of techniques I’ve developed over the last 5 years. I encourage you to schedule an appointment and stop by for a free headshot consultation. We specialize in actor headshots, corporate headshots, and everything in between. We also do engagement photography, family portraits, and product photography.

History

Established in 2007.

Chicago photography company 312elements started as a small studio over 5 years ago and now services over 300 clients a year. Our roots are in our photography services and we look forward to working with you. Our new studio has had a huge influence on not only our headshot photography, but all of our work. The studio at 212 N. Sangamon Chicago, IL 60 607 has allowed us to take on bigger projects and deliver a superior product. The place is what you would expect of an artist timber loft in the West Loop. We try to keep things feeling like home. Our headshot photography clients love that we can review images on the big screen and our engagement photography clients love the cozy intimate setting of the loft. It’s really something you could only find a boutique studio like ours. Each year we work hard to produce a better product than the year before. Please give us a call to schedule an appointment to stop by for a free consultation at 312.546.3582.

Meet the Business Owner

Michael S.

Business Owner

I would love to be able to say that every since the first moment I picked up a camera I knew I wanted to be a photographer, but that just isn’t true. I’ve always been creative, and all through my childhood I excelled in the arts, but it wasn’t until I was much older and realized my gift for talking to people and putting them at ease, that photography was ever on my radar as a career. I’ve always loved photography, but the idea of working in the arts was always more of a dream than a reality. That is until we started 312elements photography.

Truth be told, anyone can take a nice photograph with the right camera under ideal conditions. What I feel separates me from my competition is my personality. I have a unique ability to coach people and get them relaxed and comfortable enough to capture the perfect expression. I do it day in and day out, and without that ability I’d be just like every other «guy with a camera». It’s this unique ability that makes me a professional photographer.
