Hudson Valley Portrait Photography

Family portraits, professional headshots, and personal portrait sessions across the Hudson Valley, the Catskills, and the Tri State region. I'm Marlon Ramos, based in Newburgh, NY, photographing portraits with the same documentary lean as the hundreds of weddings I've shot.

Hudson Valley portrait photography by Marlon Ramos

A portrait, the way you'd actually want to be seen

Whether you're looking for a fresh professional headshot, a family session that doesn't feel posed, or a personal portrait that just lets you be yourself for an hour, the goal is the same. Photographs that look like you, on the better days.

My style for portrait work uses the place itself. The light. The atmosphere. The corner of the Hudson Valley you wanted to shoot in. We spend most of the time talking, walking, and shooting candidly. The posed frames you do need still feel relaxed because we got the unposed ones first.

The key to a portrait you'll actually want on your wall is a session where you forgot you were being photographed.

  • 1 hour session

Yes. The Hudson Valley has great seasonal locations for family and holiday portraits, from fall foliage to winter scenery. Family sessions follow the same documentary lean as my wedding work, so the photos look like your family actually is.
