Match Production, a New York City-based portrait and production studio, has announced an expanded focus on editorial-style executive portraiture and custom corporate photography designed specifically for leadership teams and ambitious startups. This shift addresses a critical need in corporate communications where obtaining the right images quickly while maintaining brand standards has become increasingly challenging.
The studio's approach differs from traditional headshot services by operating with a production mindset that includes structured scheduling, repeatable lighting, and crewed workflows. This methodology ensures senior leaders remain comfortable while maintaining quality and consistency across all images. Sessions are conducted at their Times Square studio, on-location across Manhattan, or through remote options for distributed teams.
For communications professionals, human resources departments, and founders, the primary challenge is not simply obtaining headshots but securing appropriate images rapidly while navigating tight schedules and ensuring leadership teams maintain a cohesive appearance over time. Match Production's process addresses these concerns by delivering proofs typically within one business day and providing final retouched selections quickly based on project scope.
Recent projects demonstrate the studio's capabilities in high-pressure situations. For a venture-backed AI startup preparing for a funding announcement, Match delivered a comprehensive press-kit-ready library including team headshots, polished leadership portraits, and authentic workplace lifestyle imagery. The studio also created a signature founders image captured on-location in lower Manhattan to provide unmistakable New York City context, available through their portfolio at https://match-production.com.
In another instance, when a Manhattan fintech firm required leadership headshots for a global press announcement within 48 hours, Match converted an on-site conference room into a mobile studio and delivered final retouched portraits in 36 hours. This rapid turnaround supported press and investor materials without disrupting executive schedules.
The studio also demonstrated its ability to maintain brand consistency at scale for a Fortune 500 financial services client, producing 47 executive portraits aligned to a precise brand background while maintaining matching color temperature and backdrop positioning across multiple shooting days. These images were designed for diverse applications including press materials, investor presentations, and professional networking platforms.
Match Production's team brings editorial experience from major publications including Forbes, Esquire, Inc., and GQ, combined with corporate delivery systems that ensure project predictability for internal stakeholders. The studio offers executive portraits, leadership headshots, corporate team sessions, and custom image libraries for both internal communications and external visibility initiatives.
This expansion of services responds to the increasing importance of visual branding in corporate communications, where executive imagery must function effectively across multiple platforms from investor presentations to social media profiles. As companies compete for attention in crowded markets, professional photography that conveys leadership credibility while maintaining brand integrity has become an essential component of corporate strategy.
