About Dave Conlon, Burlington Portrait Photographer

I’m Dave Conlon, a portrait photographer based in Burlington, Ontario. I photograph headshots, personal brand sessions, and portraits for professionals, entrepreneurs, and creatives across Burlington, Hamilton, Oakville, and Halton.

My Path to Portrait Photography

Photography has been a part of my life for a long time, and it’s the work I enjoy most. What keeps me behind the camera is light: how it shapes a face, changes a mood, and helps a person look natural and confident.

Marketing Experience Behind Every Portrait

I bring 25+ years of marketing experience to every session. I think about where an image will live, whether that’s a LinkedIn profile, a company website, a speaker bio, or a social feed, and I make sure it does that job. A good portrait isn’t just about looking good. It’s about making the right first impression.

How I Work as a Portrait Photographer

Every session starts with a quick conversation so I understand your goals and the look you want. Then I set up flattering light, give simple, clear direction, and keep the pace comfortable, so your expression is natural and the photos look like you on your best day. I work in studio and on location, and I tailor each session to what you need.

Let’s Work Together

Whether you’re after a headshot for a new role, a refresh for your brand, or a portrait for yourself, I’ll help you get it right. If you’re planning a session, I’d love to hear what you’re working on. Book a session or get in touch, and let’s make images worth showing.
