Why Your Image Matters
(Chef Maegan, Sous Chef and Pâtisserie at Trelio Food & Wine and private chef)
Headshots vs Business Portraits
Professional headshots tell the world you mean business. A portrait shows your personality. Together, they create a brand people can trust. That is the power of being seen with intention.
(Canelo Álvarez, 4-Division World Champion and former Undisputed Super Middleweight Champion, attending the FAHF Gala at Table Mountain Casino Resort)
Corporate Event Photography
Every moment tells a story. Capture it with intention. When people see how your team collaborates, they understand who you really are. Corporate event photography helps you build a brand that lasts.
(Neighborhood Industries Fashion show at their annual report event at Forestiere Underground Gardens, professional model Stiltz.)
Branding Photography for Businesses
Before anyone experiences your product or service, they experience your brand. Branding photography makes that first moment unmistakable. It reflects your quality, your confidence, and your commitment to excellence. In a crowded world, clarity wins. And clarity starts with what people see.
Who’s behind the lens?
Meet Carmelo
Born and raised in Fresno, CA, I bring over a decade of photography experience to every project. My background spans weddings, headshots, corporate events, and studio work, and I specialize in capturing authentic moments and refined portraits. My goal is to create images that feel true to your brand, highlight your professionalism, and tell your story with intention. I aim to create timeless visuals that build and preserve meaningful memories and stories for years to come.
When I’m not behind the camera, you can find me outdoors, traveling with my wife, searching for unique and amazing restaurants to eat at, discovering new music around a bonfire, or working on a home renovation project.
August Raskie, Major League Volleyball Team Captain and All-Star

Respectfully, I encourage clients and partners to form their own opinions and judgments. What I can speak to is my own standard. I am committed to a thoughtful, human-centered approach supported by clear communication and reliable results. Cutting corners or rushing the process is not part of my practice. The work I take on matters to me, and so does the impact you make with your clients. My commitment is to support your goals with the same dedication and care you bring to your own work. Let’s create an impact together.
-
Not at all. Who you are is exactly who I want to capture. I take the time to get to know you, and creating a memorable experience matters just as much as the final images. The best thing you can do is be yourself, because that’s what brought you to where you are now. Throughout the session, I’ll guide your posing and help bring out the confidence and professionalism you show in your own work.
-
Yes. All coverage is done on-location. This approach reduces disruptions to your day, keeps the workflow efficient, and allows the location of your choice or your own environment to become a natural part of the shoot.
