What To Do & What NOT To Do: Headshot Edition 

There are many ways to go about getting a proper headshot. Whether it is for your Linkedin profile, updating your company portrait or creating marketing content for your business, there are a few things to keep in mind to ensure you get the best results. 

If you'd like a quick, simple guide to help make the process easy and simple, what we've created below will help. 


What to do:

  1. Hire a professional: I know it may seem obvious, but hiring a profession means you will feel confident in front of the camera and we can help coach and guide to ensure you look your best!

2. Professional lighting: Lighting is HUGE when it comes to helping clients look their best. What comes with a professional? Lights and equipment to ensure you look your best!

3. Professional Attire: It might be 2023 and things might be a little more relaxed, but people still want to see you carry yourself professionally. Your hair and make-up falls in this category as well, and simple is best! 

What NOT to do:

  1. Use distracting backgrounds: The setting of your portrait can either make or break what others see. To ensure you're the focal point, we will minimize distractions. You are the star of your headshot, let people see just you!

2. Over the top clothing & make-up trends: Keep your clothing to basic colors and make-up quite simple. It can potentially take away from the subject, you! 

3. Rush the process: Take your time! Let yourself ease into the moment and allow us to guide you the best way they can. When things are too rushed, your photos will show it. 

Follow these tips and we guarantee you will have great headshots! Keep in mind that a photo will absolutely make a difference in how you are perceived in the professional world!
