"As a professional performer
as well as a personal coach of 30 years, I have encountered many
photographers. Alex Kaplan has a wonderful personal style that promotes
relaxation for an artist in front of the camera. He captures that,
"state of being", so important for any "living"
display of a personality. He does this creating an atmosphere during
studio and location shooting, that produces composite results of great
variety. This offers a great number of wonderfully selectable images to
choose from. Alex Kaplan's lighting and technical skills are among the top
professionals in the business."

Hi Alex,

their headshots, but all 4 people reported that you were extremely
professional and easy to work with. We were all amazed at the speed in
which you turned around the shots. And, we were easily able to make our
deadline with the website developer. Thanks for everything. We will
happily send you additional employees.
Thanks much,

FYI- I cannot tell you how many people tell me the only reason they
contacted me first before any other broker is because the picture looks
so great!
- Fanny Montalvo - Real Estate Agent
I suggest
that you emphasize your friendly, laid-back approach. Guys like me don’t
know what to expect from photographers. You were very personable and
made me feel comfortable. That’s a benefit that some of your competitors
may not be able to offer.

Hey Alex,
Just wanted to shoot you an email. I think I told you I was
going out to LA for a bit in the beginning of the year.
Anyway, I'm back in NY now but I've been getting nothing but
compliments about my headshot from all of the casting directors,
agents, and managers that I met with both in LA and NY. Just
wanted to say thanks again.

things (like the make-up mirror check, and the music. I am just so happy
with how everything turned out.

I feel the shoot went very well. I
like the poses for the headshots, I had several to choose from; I
know for myself I look best in natural lighting. There was a great
variety of poses for both headshots and full length shot which was great
and expressions as well.
Roxanne Stein - Model
I absolutely loved
how the shoot went. Being that this was my first time taking photos I was
a little nervous, but your warm personality and the talking before and

truly made my pictures come out great. I wouldn't change a thing.
