Headshot Session: Kevin Archambault

It was a sunny, unusually warm February day when I pulled up to the Rhinebeck Performing Arts Center where I was going to do a head shot/portrait session with choreographer/director/actor Kevin Archambault. Kevin has taken part in productions all over the United States of America. He currently resides/works in Upstate NY, where he works at the Rhinebeck Performing Arts Center as their official public relations coordinator and stars in/directs/choreographs a number of shows throughout the year, both there and in many other places. I had the pleasure of meeting Kevin when I did stage crew for the Center's December 2012 production of Irving Berlin's White Christmas, in which he played lead character Phil Davis (Danny Kaye's role, for all you fans of the movie).

For somebody who told me they hadn't had head shots or portraits done in a number of years, Kevin took to it like a duck to water. With an infectious smile and a great "photographic presence," he was a fantastic friend and client to work with, and by the end of the session we both had some fantastic images to add to our portfolios.

There are few more caring, genuine, or enthusiastic individuals you could ask for to start off your career photographing. Thank you to Kevin for being such a great client and the Rhinebeck Performing Arts Center for allowing us to use one of their gorgeous studios!

Anatomy of an Image

It's hard to say what exactly makes a "memorable image." Is it the way it looks? The person who took it? The event it depicts?

Or is it simply what that image means to us?

Our lives are made up of snapshots. Little images, sound bytes, excerpts that make up a "bigger picture." They are irreplaceable in the fabric of our lives. When we look back on our memories, that one defining moment stands out to us. It is how we remember that time.

Here at Caleb Lococo | Photo, I am devoted to preserving those memories. Whether it's your wedding day, family reunion, or any other joyous event, I look forward to recording it. If it's portraits of you for your career, or portraits of you in a group of people or place that is important to you, I look forward to capturing that facet of your life. I look forward to telling your story and working with you no matter the work, no matter the place.

Let's make some art together. Let's record history. Let's catch the life-changing moments.
