Photography by Dear Summer

Dear Summer provides professional photography services for corporate events, executive headshots, environmental portraits, conferences, galas, and on-location brand shoots throughout Washington DC, New York City, Northern Virginia, Maryland, and nationwide. Our photography carries the same cinematic quality and storytelling approach we bring to our video production work — delivering high-resolution, publication-ready images for websites, LinkedIn profiles, press releases, annual reports, social media, and print materials.

Whether you need corporate event photography captured during a conference we're already filming, or a dedicated headshot session for your leadership team, we deliver polished images with the discreet, multi-angle approach we use for video — capturing speaker moments, candid interactions, and the details that make your event worth documenting.

For executive headshots and environmental portraits, we shoot on-location at your office, campus, or preferred setting. Environmental portraits go beyond the standard backdrop — we use your actual workspace, architecture, or surrounding neighborhood to create images that reflect who you are and where you work. This is especially valuable for organizations in Washington DC, where your environment is part of your brand.

Many clients book photography as part of a combined photo and video production package for events and campaigns, which streamlines scheduling, reduces costs, and ensures visual consistency across all deliverables.
