Jonathan Charpentier Photography

With not much notice, my firm hired Jonathan to do a photo shoot at our annual company-​wide meeting. It was our 60^th anniversary year, and after our meeting, we had an offsite reception and dinner at The Bakken Museum.
I had met with Jonathan only a few days prior to our event. He showed me examples of his work and gave me several options and offering suggestions of what would work best for our group. While candid shots of the group were good, they were only a secondary concern of mine, because what I wanted to capture was a group photograph of all our employees. Anything else would be a bonus.
Jonathan, without any request from me, scheduled an appointment with the Bakken the next day so that he could see and feel what the space would look like and what would work.
The day of our event arrived and I found Jonathan getting our group to interact and pose for the camera! Our group is typically reserved, but Jonathan used his people skills and charm to get them do act naturally and have fun!
Jonathan was very accommodating with special requests, because several of us who are not shy of the camera would ask to have our pictures taken, and he obliged.
When the time came for the group picture, I was so pleasantly surprised the Bakken had a special loft area where Jonathan could go ‘above’ the group and take several group shots!
Jonathan efficiently turned around the pictures in a very short time, and had them available for viewing on a Dropbox account. The pictures were even better than I had envisioned.
Thanks to Jonathan’s professionalism and skill, we now will have a memory of our 60^th anniversary that will hang in each office next to our 50^th anniversary picture. I appreciate all the work you did for us, Jonathan! You exceeded my expectations!
