Fun Headshots

Not all headshot sessions have to be stiff and dull.  No way!  Headshots can be fun.  In fact, I laugh a lot during headshot sessions.  I’m usually talking to my subject about whatever it is that we find in common.  That usually leads to extended conversations and before you know it, we are friends.  Corporate headshot sessions are lots of fun because the office jabs and the peanut gallery are always present.  Let’s face it – everyone is the hardest on themselves so looking at photos of yourself is sometimes hard to do.  But if we keep things in perspective and have fun, the resulting headshot will be great!

My Session with Karen

Karen needed an updated headshot for her job search.  I photographed her partner the week prior and she came along for Karen’s session.  We laughed a lot.  It was such a fun session!  Karen is super relaxed in front of the camera and just about nailed every shot.  So with her business headshots done, we moved on to even more fun.  They brought props.  Oh, I love props.  And these were especially nice because Karen also has a travel, food, and wine blog.  So the next headshots were to be included on her blog with the wine.  I just adore these fun shots of Karen and the wine.  One of my favorites is the focus on her wine glass while she is slightly blurry in the background.  You really get the feeling that she is holding out that glass of wine for you, the viewer.  Yes, please!  To top it all off, someone had to drink the wine at the end of the session!  Yes, I helped.

Not sure how formal your headshot should be? Start here. 👇

Your outfit plays a huge role in the story your headshot tells — and choosing the right look helps you show up with clarity and confidence.

Here are 5 levels of formality for men’s headshots and when to use each one:

1️⃣ Very Formal
Suit jacket + button-down shirt + tie
This look builds instant trust and authority.

2️⃣ Semi-formal (No Tie)
Suit jacket + button-down (no tie)
Polished, approachable, and confident.

3️⃣ Business Casual
Button-down shirt, no jacket
Comfortable and true to your everyday brand.

4️⃣ Branded Apparel
Button-down or polo with company logo
Keeps things clean, professional, and consistent — especially for team headshots.

5️⃣ Casual
Fitted t-shirt or polo (no branding)
Still professional — just more relaxed and innovative.

✨ BONUS TIPS:
– Stick to solid colors
– Make sure clothes are clean, pressed & well-fitted
– Avoid loud patterns or busy logos (unless branded)
– Bring a backup shirt or jacket to your session

🎯 The goal? Choose the level that fits your industry, role, and personality — and Tara will help you photograph it perfectly.

Let's talk about it 👇🏻

Whether it’s your LinkedIn profile, website bio, or social media presence—your photo is often the first impression people get of you.

And if it’s outdated, poorly lit, overly casual, or just not aligned with who you are now… it’s doing more harm than good.

Here’s what a great headshot can do:
✅ Build instant trust with clients
✅ Attract job offers, press, or speaking gigs
✅ Help you show up confidently in a crowded market
✅ Make your personal brand feel polished and professional

It’s more than just a photo—it’s your reputation in pixels.

📸 I create relaxed, guided headshot sessions that reflect your style, your energy, and your goals. Let’s make sure your image is working for you, not against you.

Contact me to book your session or visit the link in my bio to schedule your free consultation.

Your future self will thank you. 👏
Goldfish have longer attention spans than most people online. If your visuals don’t speak fast, they’re not being seen.

And more often than not, it’s your photos doing the talking before you ever say a word.

High-quality, professional visuals do more than “look good.” They ⤵️

✅ Build Trust Instantly

People want to feel like they know you before they work with you. Clear, polished images of you (not stock photography) help potential clients connect with the face behind the business.

✅ Showcase Professionalism

From your website to your Instagram grid, cohesive brand photography tells the world you’re serious, credible, and ready for business.

✅ Create Brand Clarity

What do you want people to feel when they land on your page? Confident? Warm? Innovative? Your visuals should reflect that vibe—because clarity creates confidence.

✅ Set You Apart

In a saturated market, people are buying you as much as your product or service. Brand photography gives you a chance to stand out with personality, story, and style.

If you’re still using a mix of selfies, old photos, or generic images, you might be confusing your audience—or worse, losing them.

Let’s fix that. Let’s create visuals that stop the scroll and start the connection.
