Healthcare Photography in Los Angeles

About Ed Carreon Photography

Ed grew up in the business as a photojournalist, where he learned to solve problems quickly and under pressure. His clients like working with him because he has a unique vision, deep professionalism, a collaborative nature, and a broad skill set, including portraiture, narrative photography, commercial productions, architectural photography, and post-production services he provides for his Healthcare industry clients.

Ed can turn on a dime and works well with direction, though he often sees images that his photography clients do not and is constantly on the lookout for off-script images that he feels can contribute to the client’s goals..

He is hired for healthcare photography projects that include image content libraries, branding campaigns, annual reports, marketing, advertising projects, and high-priority collateral projects, where he works with large and small crews on productions of varying sizes.  His lighting skills allow him to light whole surgical sets or work quietly in the background during surgeries. Clients like his versatility of skills that allow him to pivot from a high-production healthcare set to a simple, low-production, natural-looking set on the same campaign.

He is also keenly aware of HIPAA regulations.

Healthcare Photography Process

Ed always starts by listening to the client’s needs and asking questions about logistics, expectations, proposing creative solutions, and budgets. This is often followed by a production meeting, location scouting, and assembling the crew and gear.

He produces most healthcare photography assignments, handles post-production, and hires the right crew. He usually shoots to an iPad or laptop, so clients feel confident they are getting what they need. He lighting setup is mobile, and he lights as little as possible and as much as necessary to maintain a natural look to the photographs. Images are posted on an Adobe gallery for review after color grading and toning. The final images are retouched and or assembled for final delivery via Dropbox.

Incorporating medical photography into these assignments has allowed Ed to emphasize the importance of professional, aesthetically pleasing images that effectively showcase a medical practice, offering him a unique opportunity to create customized content that helps these practices stand out.
