“ Colleagues - Having searched several times for a photographer to do headshots and team photos, we finally found a rockstar!! “
- Senior Resident Director, Pittsburgh
“Brian & Heather came down to Houston to photograph our team. I truly appreciated the amazing job they did managing the short time our team was available to shoot. Heather was great at communicating during all stages, and Brian's work is far above what we have experienced before. Everyone who sees our new photos raves about the quality and cohesion!” - Financial Advisor, Houston
“Brian Briggs and his team were extremely professional and were able to provide us with incredible team and individual photos. We couldn’t recommend them more!”
- Financial Advisory Team, Chicago
“We all love the final product, and truly enjoyed the process. We look forward to working with you in the future.”
“We recently had headshots done for the team and they came out great so I wanted to share! The photographer and his assistant were both so great to work with and the photographer was awesome. He was so sweet and made us all look like a million bucks. Y’all know I loathe headshots but these gave me a whole new perspective on them. :)”
- Firm Administrators, Dallas
“Brian and Heather, we are really lucky to have found you. Words cannot describe the passion, talent, and professionalism behind your work. You are an amazing photographer and a wonderful team. Thank you so much for your hard work. You made everyone feel comfortable and confident - including Georgia!” - Financial Advisory Team, Lexington
"With the [firm’s] migration to the new web platform, we decided investing in better photography would add value to our marketing strategy. We wanted to select a photographer who was familiar with our firm guidelines and processes and did some research on Brian Briggs Photography, which came with good references. Their advance preparation was thorough and the day of the shoot was very smooth. Brian and Heather, his project manager, work well together; they both build quick rapport with their clients to put them at ease making for more natural shots and expressions. Perhaps the biggest plus was the amazing retouching that came with our shoot. Brian removed distracting pillars, double chins, crow’s feet and even a pair of non-matching suit trousers. Now that is full service! I would highly recommend Brian and Heather within the [firm’s] environment (or elsewhere). In my first career, I owned an advertising agency and am familiar with large scale commercial photoshoots. Brian and Heather deliver that quality without the week long shoot schedule, costs, or the prima donnas!" - Financial Advisory Team in Austin, Texas
“Working with Brian Briggs Photography was a fantastic experience. Brian is incredibly professional, accurate, and determined to get the perfect shot. His attention to detail in the editing process is exceptional. He and Heather removed my necklace (which was off-center), trimmed off split ends, and smoothed away any imperfections as if they were never there. I would recommend Brian Briggs Photography to even the most discerning client out there.”
- Senior Vice President, Houston, TX
"Highly recommend and refer. We just finished taking our team pics, and they are as professional as they come."
- Managing Director, Frisco, TX
"After having taken our team photo twice before with two different photographers and being very unhappy with the results, we worked with Brian & Heather for hopefully the photo that depicted our team... and when the final versions came back we couldn’t have been happier. It’s the perfect photo that we were looking for. We will definitely use Brian again going forward for any future photo needs. He is professional, understands what we are looking for and has vast experience, especially in the financial services industry. I highly suggest anyone looking for that special photo to reach out to him."
- Financial Advisory Group, Illinois
“I found such kindred spirits in Brian Briggs and his assistant, Heather Putman - they understand completely the image I need to portray in my website and marketing materials for my private business practice, and the work that goes into distinguishing my work as an audiologist with a diverse client base. Having them on the NASCAR track to capture the driver I sponsor and his custom hearing equipment made for phenomenal photos I just could never have had otherwise. Besides their professional prowess, I’ve found them to be some of the best people and friends.”
— Dr. Lori Ann Halvorson,
Audiologist and Nationally Recognized Hearing Expert to Celebrities and Artists
Lake Forest Hearing Sponsor of NASCAR driver James Davison
"I was very impressed with the amount of detail Brian and Heather put into delivering a high-quality, very-modern, professional picture for me to use in my practice. Brian took the time to understand what I was looking for and delivered a product that exceeded my expectations. Would use him again and recommend to others without a doubt!"
- Financial Advisor, Frisco, Texas
“Brian and his assistant made me feel confident and completely at ease during the photo session. He asked me questions about what I did professionally, and what message I wanted to convey to my clients. The end result was perfect - my head shot looks exactly how I wanted it to look.”
- Financial Advisor - Houston, Texas
"Having worked in the higher echelons of global advertising (Leo Burnett - London and Chicago; Euro RSCG Tatham), I am quite particular about the quality of photographer with whom I choose to work. It has been my pleasure to work with Brian Briggs and his advertising team. His work is not only a fine finished product - his process is enjoyable. His biggest gift, however, is his ability to put people at ease no matter how stressed the situation. That is a true professional."
- Phil Gayter, Gayter Gollianis Advertising
"Brian Briggs is a truly gifted photographer and marketing visionary. He is remarkable at putting the subject at ease with the camera, and virtually eliminates any inhibitions. His work is flawless, and what's even more special, is he is a teacher every step of the way. He has photographed much of my art, and my portrait for several magazine features. There is no photographer I would rather work with."
- René Romero Schuler, One of the Most Important and Well-Collected Contemporary Artists to Emerge out of the Midwest in the Last 10 Years
"Brian has a truly exceptional gift for advertising and photography. When you are a chef, your food is your art; when you care that deeply about the way it is presented and portrayed, you want the very best. Brian's advertising vision and photographs give an identity to our restaurant - the food and the people who make it unique. Each time we hire him, we get something new and fantastic. We'd never hire anyone else."
- Thierry Lefeuvre, Executive Chef, Froggy's French Café, Chicago
"As a former Art Director, Creative Director, Account Executive, and Ad Agency CEO, I have never worked with a photographer with more talent, passion, and consistency despite last minute deadlines or in the face of seemingly impossible circumstances."
- John Dearlove, President and CEO, Innermark, Inc.
"We just had our Senior Management Team of The Family Wealth Alliance book a professional session with Brian Briggs, who is integral in the Global Marketing Campaigns of the Merrill Lynch PBIG teams across the U.S. We were quite pleased at the result and it gave our website and professional bios a lift to a whole new level. I encourage you to consider what a real pro could do for you and your organization!"
- Thomas Livergood, CEO,
The Family Wealth Alliance
"Brian captured the uniqueness of our team by creatively personalizing our group and individual photography experience. Nobody really loves the camera, but Brian and his team were encouraging and put us at ease. Without disruption to our large group of eight people, Brian adjusted and blended the technicalities of light control and setting to flatter and enhance his photography. He strives for candid and comfortable smiles and successfully paints them onto a professional canvas."
- Financial Advisory Group, Chicago
