Blog

Welcome to my blog. My name is Rob Banayote. I have been in the commercial photography profession for many years. My expertise is in business photography, specifically conventions, tradeshows, business portraits, events, and architecture. I have experience providing images for social media.

I have wanted to write a blog for a long time. While I may need to be more consistent initially, my goal is to share thoughts on why I do what I do and how I go about it. I also look forward to sharing tips from projects I have worked on. I will also share what I have learned over the years, shooting some pretty cool events and working with many talented people who work for Fortune 500 Companies and small businesses. I hope we learn something new together that will help us both stay ahead of the game of CHANGE! LET’S GO!
