Adam Shane’s Biography

My name is Adam Shane, and I specialize in the creation and capture of digital images. While my photography is known for its vivid and accurate colors, combined with bold and dynamic contrast, my ultimate goal is to achieve my clients’ vision.  I’ve spent the last couple decades studying cutting edge image techniques and developing innovative methods to help bring your ideal images to life.

Whether you need to craft the perfect photo from an abstract concept, or accurately depict your product, property or service, I'm proficient in both conceptual and documentary styles to best convey your message. I'm an award-winning full service commercial, advertising and editorial image provider, specializing in Architechtural Photography, Food Photography, Commercial Portraiture, Conceptual Photography and Photoshop Manipulation.

My main production team is based in Las Vegas, but we're also available for assignment both domestically and internationally. I have a 2,000 sq ft. photo studio with 25' cyclorama wall and a 4,000 sq ft. video studio with 45' green-screen cylocrama cove, located 5 minutes away from the Las Vegas Strip and 10 minutes away from McCarran International Airport.


Skills

Along with traditional photography techniques and in-depth knowledge of my equipment, I have a thorough understanding of light.  I’m adept in using both natural and artificial light to create depth and atmosphere in any situation.  In addition to mastery of these traditional requisites, I’m also experienced with a range of advanced image-creation skills:

• Compositing: to create scenes that don’t exist in the real world, or simply achieve perfection and reduce budget in otherwise difficult and costly scenarios.

• Stitching: to create larger than life images, transcend camera resolution limits and capture scenes that don’t fit in even the widest of professional lenses.

• Bracketing & HDR: to capture scenes beyond the cameras normal dynamic range, and make sure you can see all the important details in the darkest and lightest areas.

• Full Service Production Crew: to professionally accommodate shoots of any size and specialty.

• Retouching Specialists: to provide the perfect look for your image and expedite rush deliveries.

• 360°x180º Equirectangular HDR VR Panoramas: to immerse viewers in a bubble of time, where they can look in every direction and see every detail.

• True-3D Photography: using 2 identically matched DSLRs and Prime Lens through a Hollywood-style Beam Splitter, to capture perfectly rendered 3D scenes and action situations.


Clients

I’ve photographed an roster of high-profile subjects for clients include advertising agencies, international book and magazine publishers, museums, hotels, resorts, casinos, stadiums, record labels, film and television producers.  In addition to promotional photos and production unit stills, I've also been featured as an on-screen photographer for several tv-shows including Germany's Poker Stars and VH1's Tool Academy.
