Corporate photography at Salesforce Tower Chicago
Sixty floors and 850 feet at Wolf Point, completed in 2024. If your team is here, this is how a session in the building runs.
Salesforce Tower Chicago is the sixty story, 850 foot tower at 333 West Wolf Point Plaza, standing on Wolf Point South where the three branches of the Chicago River meet. It was completed in 2024 to a design by Pelli Clarke & Partners, holds about 1.2 million square feet, cost in the region of 800 million dollars, and was developed by Hines together with the Joseph P. Kennedy family. It is the newest of the large downtown towers and one of the most exposed sites in the city, with water on more than one side and open sight lines from the Loop, River North and the West Loop. That exposure is the reason the building reads as a landmark from three different neighborhoods.
Salesforce anchors the tower with about 500,000 square feet. Kirkland & Ellis, the largest law firm in the world by revenue, moved here from 300 North LaSalle with roughly 1,700 Chicago employees on a lease reported at around 600,000 square feet. The building has been reported as fully leased to those two organizations, so if your team is here, your team is part of one of them. Both work to a defined global brand standard, so a portrait program here is usually a matching exercise.
A session runs on your own floor in a conference room of roughly eight by ten feet with a power outlet. In a 2024 tower the dock and freight elevator are modern and managed, and access is booked in advance, so confirm the dock window, the elevator booking and any certificate of insurance requirement with building management. Large tenant floors also have their own internal rules about which rooms outside vendors may use, so ask your facilities contact as well as the building. Send us the floor, the room and a lobby contact before the day.
We photograph on site, in your own office. If your team is in this building, the notes below are what the day looks like. Nothing here is a claim to a past session in it, and no tenant named is a client unless it says so elsewhere on this site.






Sample work, photographed at other clients' offices rather than in this building. It is the standard a session here would be held to.
Johnson + Krol, a Chicago labor firm, and IWR North America, which lists a Chicago satellite office, are both clients.

Working in Salesforce Tower Chicago
The practical side of a shoot in this building, so the day runs on schedule.
Access is booked, not improvised
A new tower with two very large tenants runs tight building security. Confirm the dock window, freight elevator and certificate of insurance with building management, and clear the room with your own facilities team as well.
The room
One conference room of about eight by ten feet with an outlet. On floor plates this size there is usually a choice, and a room with a window wall is better for the portraits than an interior one.
Matching a global standard
Both anchor organizations run to an established brand look. Send the existing portrait set and we match lighting, crop and finish so the Chicago additions sit with the global library rather than beside it.
Large lists
Forty to sixty people in a day at fifteen minute slots. A team of several hundred runs across consecutive days with one setup and one standard, which is the only way the set stays consistent.
Views and backgrounds
The confluence site means river views on several sides. A view makes a good environmental portrait but a poor headshot background, so the two are lit and shot separately when a brief asks for both.
Video on the same visit
Executive interviews and recruiting film share the production day. Filming at 4K means the same visit returns a still library along with the film.
What we make for Salesforce Tower Chicago teams
A headshot program is usually the first project. It is rarely the only one, and the same photographer handles the rest.
Corporate headshot programs
Whole teams photographed in one or two days, to one standard that holds as people join and leave.
Learn MoreExecutive portraits
Leadership portraits with the weight the business expects, for annual reports, press and the board page.
Learn MoreBrand films and campaign video
Directed, filmed and edited by one person, from the first scope conversation through final delivery.
Learn MoreRecruiting and employer brand
Culture photography and video made in the building people would actually work in, for careers pages and hiring campaigns.
Learn MoreCommercial and facility photography
A marketing team's image library for the year, so the next campaign does not start with a stock search.
Learn MoreConference and event coverage
Sessions, keynotes, booths and headshot stations, photographed and filmed in the same visit.
Learn MoreMost of this work is booked together. A team that needs headshots usually also needs the recruiting film, the facility library and the conference coverage, and running it through one person is what keeps the whole set looking like it came from one company.
