Allegheny Technology Incorporated CEO, Richard Harshman

A couple months back a Chicago based magazine, Forward, got in touch with me to photograph the CEO and president of Allegheny Technology Incorporated here in Pittsburgh, PA.  

I can honestly say that I still get nervous anytime I am asked to go into a a business office and do corporate headshots. I mean how creative can you get in a 3×3 cubicle space or in front of a messy office desk. Colors and scenery can sometimes be a bit boring. 

But as I was walking through ATI’s office spaces, i saw it. The color I wanted. That not-so-bland wall.

And we did a couple alternatives in the board room.

Sometimes its the nerves that help make some good photographs.
