I was able to bring multiple outfits and consult with Bob on what would look best for the goals of my shoot. With the wardrobe changes I was able to get multiple looks in the same shoot which exceeded my expectations. The whole experience was pleasant and efficient from beginning to end and I felt like Bob really understood what my goals were. Bob's process for selecting final shots was super collaborative. These are by far the best headshots I have ever had. read less - 9/08/2023

I was blown away by all of his fabulous new equipment in his studio! The consummate professional, Bob made everything so easy and relaxed; went in for one photo that I could use professionally, but had such a difficult time deciding (there were so many good ones!) that I ended up with five! I love the way Bob guides you and then assists with selection; he sees things that I never would have. I like that my photos look like ME, they are not overly retouched, and they allow me to use my beautiful new photos with confidence. I would highly recommend Bob's services to anyone looking for a beautiful professional headshot or personal portrait! And while you are there, don't forget to say "hi" to Happy (Bob's adorable pup!)Bob came highly recommended to me for my updated professional headshots and he exceeded my expectations! I am very uncomfortable in front of the camera, and he managed to get multiple great shots (he even got me to relax!) - it was actually hard to choose. I would HIGHLY recommend Carmichael Productions to anyone looking for an excellent, professional photographer (and all around nice guy to boot). Great work, professional atmosphere - you can't go wrong. read less - 2/24/2020

I'm not particularly comfortable in front of the camera so I was a bit nervous going in to get some new professional images. Bob made me feel at home and relaxed from the moment I arrived. The studio was sleek yet understated (the studio is behind his house) and I selected music that helped me unwind and have fun with the shoot. The results were far better than what I expected and I've had so many people comment on how fabulous my new professional pics are. I highly recommend Bob and Carmichael Productions! read less - 2/24/2018

I have often thought the results he achieves are a direct result of his professional approach to his craft and his keen attention to detail.In recent years, I have noticed his signature style portraits (graduated gray to black backgrounds), on social media and in people's homes in Boulder County and I think it is a great look. With that being said, I was fortunate to have my head shot taken by Bob at his studio (studio one) in Boulder just a few weeks ago.As a professional photographer, I generally enjoy looking through the lens of a camera and deciding when it is the right time to capture the moment. It is rare for me to be on the other side of the camera. In fact, I do not always enjoy the role of being the subject.This was not the case, while working with Bob. While sitting for my head shot, I found Bob to be the perfect director. That is, he noticed subtle changes in my expressions and posture that would reflect the person who I am at this point in time and he was able to both direct and capture that. In the end, he produced a great portrait.Thank you Bob. read less - 2/24/2017

This ability is not a universal trait common to all portrait photographers who may or may not be sensitive enough to pick-up on a young actors intrinsic personality. Bob has this quality and it shows in his images. Bryce's agent loves the series of shots Bob captured for this very reason.I enjoyed working with Bob during my head shot session. He made me feel very comfortable and his direction was specific and easy to follow. I am stoked with the results. Bryce Donald Q6 Talent Portland, Oregon read less - 2/24/2017

It was an all-day affair, and a wonderful experience. Bob's studio is amazing--very professional, with great equipment and comfortable spaces for the clients. The photos were fantastic. He even made me look good! Bob was delightful to work with--very friendly, generous, talented, and PATIENT. I heartily recommend Bob to anyone looking for a great photo experience. read less - 2/24/2017

I'm not photogenic, or so I thought until I had a photo session with Bob Carmichael. I love what I do for a living (real estate broker), but I don't care for the branding component of it that involves your photo on everything. I arrived for my photo session with Bob dreading that I was going to be photographed, but I knew that it was time to update my current head shot. Immediately upon sitting down and watching Bob in action, I knew it was going to be a shoot like no other. I felt like a super model, which I'm not! He made the session fun and pushed me out of my comfort zone so that he could capture the "real" me. I truly could not believe the results. For the first time EVER, I liked my photos. In fact, I liked so many of them, that it was difficult to choose which one to go with. The entire experience was fantastic. I have started updating my photos where applicable and the compliments are embarrassing. Not because they're rude, but because so many people are commenting on how amazing my new head shot looks. The irony is that it really captures me. It's not a glamour shot of the 80s. It truly looks like the best version of me. I could not be happier with the results and I cannot emphasize enough how crazy it sounds coming from me, that I actually love a picture of myself. Bob is a magician with the camera. He instinctively knows how to find the "best you" and photograph it. I could not be more please with the results. read less - 2/24/2017

But the experience was different with Bob. His landmark home is beautiful and filled with landscape pictures that immediately put you at ease. The studio is light and modern and looks out to a garden. Before shooting, Bob carefully worked with the lighting to get the best look and minimize glare. He makes you feel comfortable and valued which helps you relax and get great pictures. I would highly recommend Bob - a nice guy and a consummate professional. read less - 2/24/2017

Bob did a great job of making me feel relaxed from the moment I walked into his lovely home/studio.

He was thoughtful about capturing Access Opportunity's first fundraising event and arrived prepared to work with difficult lighting.

It was a real pleasure to be in the hands of a pro for this, and the results were outstanding. It was hard to narrow down the choices, as Bob got so many excellent shots. Having had headshots done in the past (in NYC), the quality of Bob’s work just leapt off his web page, and it was even more impressive in person. His rates were very reasonable, given the quality of his work. You’ll be very happy with his work. read less - 2/24/2017

Bob both managed the project and provided the remarkable photography which was the basis of the book (both majestic Colorado environmental panoramas and intimate, telling, personal photos of family and associates. The result was a wonderfully realized personal tribute that our sophisticated client was extremely pleased with. Bob was able to capture the spirit of the man being celebrated—expansive and powerful, but at the same time tender, personal and humble— not easy, but Bob is an extraordinarily caring and talented guy who notices and pays careful attention to detail. Besides all this, he is terrific to work with. I highly recommend Bob Carmichael. read less - 2/24/2017

I joke that I have a disability in that it is impossible for me to take a good picture. I started my business and needed a photo for my website, I tried to do it myself and I put up a photo that I took. I actually received feedback that I had lost a prospective client because of how unflattering my photo was. That was the last straw, so I went to the best, I went to Bob Carmichael and what he pulled off was an absolute miracle. Bob kept things light and fun, and I left with THREE photos that I loved. I have never had ONE photo that I liked. My experience with Bob could not have been better. Total pro and a really nice guy! If you want the best, you know where to go. read less - 2/24/2017

Bob has a wonderful way of putting his subjects at ease and engaging with them during the process. It was critical that Bob capture the essence of the two subjects, so that readers of the magazine are drawn in and want to know more about the subjects. And did he ever succeed! The end result is all I could have hoped for and more! read less - 2/24/2016
