Taking a professional headshot can sometimes be a stressful process. You may not realize it, but there are a lot of things to consider when you’re trying to market yourself as a professional. What type of market are you working in? How do you want to be perceived? How do you want to represent your business? These may seem like loaded questions to be asking for a simple picture.

Wow, what a turn out for this year's Oktoberfest in Montclair, NJ! All because of the 5,500 of you that made it out a few weeks ago to Lackawanna Plaza in downtown Montclair for the annual festival. Oktoberfest in Montclair is where you can eat good food, drink good beer, listen to music AND, as usual, the PHIL CANTOR PHOTOGRAPHY PhotoBooth/Studio was there.

Whole families turned out, some with infants in baby seats, there were mountain bikes, road bikes, one-of-a-kind bikes, and [...]

Backyard vs Front Porch – two great places for a family portrait

We chose to create the photos at their home instead of my studio, and it turned out to be a wonderful choice. I wanted the portraits to have a sense of place. Two good choices presented themselves: Backyard or Front [...]

Montclair, NJ Family Portrait Photographer Phil Cantor writes: I recently had the pleasure of photographing Betsy, an aspiring theater director. She was looking for headshots that would highlight her personality and style for internship and job applications. We accomplished just that with this portrait session. It was wonderful working with a fellow creative person - the entire experience was a collaboration between artists! Many clients come in looking for a single headshot for their resume and [...]
