What makes a professional headshot?

A professional headshot is an inviting window into your personality. Think of it as a chance to show the world your best self — carefully crafted with perfect lighting and posing that brings out all those qualities you want people to see.

Can I take a professional headshot myself?

Ready to snap your own perfect headshot? Put solid color backdrop behind you, stand close to a North-facing window for perfect natural light, get a close up with your camera or cellphone.  Don’t forget that expression – it’s essential for making sure you look your best.

How do you look good in a professional headshot?

Take the time to create your ideal look! A good night’s rest, some H20 for hydration and professional styling are all essential steps. Pick clothing that make you feel confident – it’ll add an extra sparkle of confidence in front of the camera. Talk to your photographer about the message you want to convey, so you can project yourself at your very best!

What is the most effective headshot?

A great headshot should capture your inner light and make it impossible for the viewer to resist working with you. It’s like an irresistible ray of sunshine that will leave them smitten!

What color is best for headshots?

Let your personality shine and radiate through the clothing you wear! Solid colors of clothes will always be a vibrant choice, while bold patterns like stripes or polka dots may detract from what it is that makes YOU special.

Can I smile in a headshot?

While most people prefer a happy face in their professional headshots, it isn’t always necessary – the right expression really depends on what message you want to get across!

How do you not look fat in a headshot?

As the saying goes, it’s all in how you dress and pose! Show off your best assets with form-fitting clothes for flattering headshots – leaving those baggy outfits behind. Steer clear of patterns to let your natural beauty shine through – a talented photographer can even take away 20+ pounds from your headshot!

Will you edit my images? I am very self-conscious about the way I look.

Yes, we call it “responsible editing”. Let’s face it, we’ve all seen images of people who have been overly-Photoshopped and thought WOAH!
