Editorial Photography

Need an editorial photographer in Los Angeles, California? We are it. Ed has worked for major magazines including: Fortune, Forbes, National Geographic, Time, New York Times, Life, US News, NewsWeek, etc.

The process is usually pretty simple for local editorial assignments involving portrait photography or photojournalism. After we come to a mutual agreement of terms and conditions we will contact the subject to discuss time, logistics and clothing while keeping the photo editor in the loop before and after shooting the photography assignment.

After editing and processing the pictures, we upload them to our servers for review and selection then optimize and do optional post production. The final images are delivered via FTP.

Local assignment areas include Los Angeles and Orange County, California as well as parts of Riverside County. Proximal locations include San Diego, Ventura and Santa Barbara counties although assignments in Las Vegas and San Francisco can sometimes be shot on same day as travel.

We are located ten minutes from downtown Los Angeles so we are often available for last minute assignments in Los LA and Orange County areas. Our editorial fees are competitive with peers of equal merit and usually we will have images available for review within 48 hours of the shoot.

Annual Reports and Corporate Photographer

As a corporate photographer in Los Angeles, Ed understands corporate conventions and the need for images consistent with branding goals. He has the skill sets and talent that allows him to create narrative images of the corporate message and craft portraits of CEO's.

Ed also provides technical skills such as location and studio lighting, production and digital skills such as compositing, optimizing, retouching and enhancement of facial features. We shoot mainly digital and can turn over many editorial, corporate and annual report assignments within 48 hours if they were shot in LA or Southern California. In extreme cases we can turn around on the same day.

Wells Fargo, The Red Cross, Valspar, Chivas Regal, Mortenson

He has the sensitivity and savvy to communicate core ideas in your narrative.

Some of the institutions that have hired Ed for his photojournalist skill set are the National Geographic, Discovery Channel, Target Corp., Weyerhaeuser, Life, The New York Times, Financial Times, USA today, etc. Ed Carreon takes a narrative approach to all his work.

Why

Why hire Ed instead of another photographer in Los Angeles?

He understands corporate and branding conventions and knows that images which represent an institution are not captured on the fly but are crafted to suit an aesthetic or statement created by an art director, communications director or creative director. Having worked as a commercial photographer for many years, he understands the difference between news and branding campaigns.

His broad range of skills, talent and 20 years of experience will be reflected in our project, and everything from his corporate portrait work to his personal work will come to bear on the project. Please compare his work to other professional photographers in Los Angeles and you will see a clear difference.

The pictures won't look like everyone else's work ,and because he speaks your language, he can contribute to your creative solutions for branding, AR and corporate image library.

You wouldn't be hiring any Los Angeles photographer or photojournalist in Los Angeles who will just record what he sees. You would be hiring someone who can speak to your needs, contribute to the discussion and create a narrative or aesthetic to suit your needs.

There are times when the highest productions values of commercial photography aren't necessary but instead a portrait of record (simple corporate headshots) or an event photographer for basic event coverage. We can help with this also. Please ask us about seeing a web based portfolio of event or headshot work.
