10 years in the making, 30 minutes to set up, 2 minutes to shoot and 15 minutes in post-production. That is a Steve Maller headshot.
And here is the 2 minutes part in the middle, where I am called to a client’s office, given a random conference room, a list of names, and a check when it’s over. 
I very much enjoy the long-standing relationship I’ve established with the Drama department at Burlingame High School. My older son Max was a member of the cast of four plays while he was there. Even though he’s gone now (and sadly, Sam hasn’t joined up…yet), I have stayed close with Mary and all the hard-working volunteers. So each semester since, they’ve asked me to shoot the cast and crew. It’s a fun afternoon, the kids are immensely appreciative, and everybody gets to feel like a real actor. I enjoy the creative challenge, and I know the kids’ parents appreciate the opportunity to get a “real” headshot of their budding stars. If you’re my friend on Facebook, you can see them all over there.
