Portrait photography based on decades of experience with celebrity portraits and covers for national and city magazines. Subjects are elevated by an editorial style and sophistication that brings out the best version of themselves. I embrace groups and celebrate diversity, as my collection attests.

We had anniversary portraits taken by J Heroun Portraits and were pleased with the results. He made us feel comfortable and relaxed. Proofs were to us rapidly and the finished pictures were also in our hands in a timely manner. I would recommend him. More...

It was a pleasure to work with J for a professional business profile headshot. The set-up in his studio was professional, but at the same time gives a comfortable ambience which allows J to capture the best moment for portraits. Also J was very highly responsive, and I got my pictures back within a short period of time ------ I'm very satisfied with the results. More...

I love a decisive smart photographer — one who recognizes the moment and captures it — one who will give me the lighting thoughts beforehand (If in studio) — that dictate the mood and feel. Joe is that kind of image maker — never failing to deliver a stunning piece. More...

I recently sat for a professional photographic portrait with Joe and was more than pleased with the outcome. I was impressed by the care and professionalism he demonstrated from the beginning to the end of the process. He put me at ease at the outset and listened sensitively to my concerns. His manner was relaxed but always businesslike and efficient. Joes uses state of the art equipment in his studio. His fees were more than reasonable given his breath of experience, and his turn-around time was excellent. I recommend Joe Heroun's portrait photography services enthusiastically without any reservation. More...

What an extraordinary experience to work with Joe on my professional branding project. His rare blend of artistic talent, technical expertise, and low-key personality are the perfect combination to craft expressive and meaningful images. Joe is a remarkable portrait photographer—you’ll feel like a star in front of his camera! More...

I was self-conscious at first, but Joe put me at ease and was able to coax out some awesome pictures. Very happy with the results!
What do you love most about your job?
I love the creative process and enjoy meeting people. Interacting with my subjects is integral to capturing great portraits. Over the years as a magazine creative director, it was highly rewarding to work with crew, models, and celebrity to become family for a day. That kind of chemistry can results in amazing outcomes.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I started my business years ago as a consultant for magazines, specializing in rebranding and redesign. Over the years, I integrated photography into my company’s offerings and it is now the majority of what I’m focused on. Though I remain active in media and design, and engaged in art, fashion, and culture. (You can see my editorial work at www.heroun.com)

As a longtime magazine creative , I've commissioned and directed many top photographers, models, and celebrities. I know what it takes to make people look their best on-camera. My experience equips me with a unique skill set and refined sensibility that I bring to my portrait work.
