LinkedIn Headshot

According to a January 2019 article by Pauline Gabrielli, “LinkedIn profiles with professional headshots receive roughly 14 times more profile views and are 36 times more likely to receive a message on LinkedIn. It’s important to look professional, hard-working and approachable.”

This article was written a year and a half ago. The thing about living in a pandemic is that meeting people virtually is all that we can do right now. Your headshot is more important than ever! When companies are reviewing candidates on LinkedIn, you certainly want every advantage you can get. The professional headshot might make the difference in getting that message. The professional headshot makes you look confident, capable, and friendly. What recruiter wouldn’t want you on their team?

Headshot Examples

LinkedIn is a professional social network and the key word there is professional. It’s not a place for the selfie, the group cutout, the family photo, or the brand logo. Those types of images do not present a professional. People do business with people. I think I’ve said that 100 times but it’s so true. The human connection is a powerful force. You want your headshot to make that human connection in an instant. Thankfully, photos can do that! Below are some examples of professional headshots both in and out of the studio. Background and location can be tailored to suit your style.

These 5 photos will completely transform your real estate brand 👇🏼

Whether you’re a solo agent building a personal brand or a growing team trying to stand out in a crowded market—your photos matter.

Because real estate is personal. People want to see who they’re working with and feel like they can trust you.

Here are 5 must-have brand photos I recommend for every real estate professional:

📸 Professional Team or Solo Portraits
Polished but approachable. Whether it’s a team shot or a solo headshot, these are the foundation of your brand.

📸 Cohesive Headshots
A unified look builds brand recognition and creates a stronger first impression—especially across platforms.

📸 Lifestyle Images
Show yourself (or your team) in action: walking a property, chatting with clients, reviewing listings. These help clients picture the experience of working with you.

📸 Detail Shots
From signage to coffee cups and closing folders, detail shots add depth and personality to your brand story.

📸 On-Location Photos
Highlight your market and your vibe—whether it’s downtown, the suburbs, or somewhere in between.

Let’s be real—getting your photo taken can feel super awkward.
You’re standing in front of a camera, trying to look natural… and it doesn’t always come naturally. That’s where I come in.

My goal isn’t just to take a great headshot—it’s to make sure you feel great while we’re doing it.

🗣 I keep things casual and conversational so you’re not stuck in your head.
🙌🏼 I give real-time encouragement to help you feel supported and at ease.
📲 And I stream your images to an iPad so you can see exactly how things are going—and speak up if something feels off.

Because the best photos don’t happen when you’re perfectly posed.
They happen when you’re relaxed, confident, and feel like yourself.

Ready to finally love your headshot?
Contact me to schedule a session designed to make you feel good and look good. 🤍

What is your headshot or branding saying about you?

Because whether you realize it or not… your image is already telling a story.
The question is — is it the right one?

Your photo is often your first impression: on LinkedIn, your website, your business card, even your email signature. And people will make assumptions based on what they see.

✔️ Does your headshot show confidence and approachability?
✔️ Does it reflect your personality, values, and professionalism?
✔️ Or is it outdated, unclear, or totally misaligned with where you`re headed?

Your image should tell your story before you even speak.
Make sure it’s the one you want people to hear.

Let’s capture photos that reflect the real you — with intention, authenticity, and style.

How to feel confident in photos 👇🏻

Let’s be honest — not everyone loves being in front of the camera. But confidence in your photos isn’t about being a model… it’s about feeling like yourself.

Here are a few ways to boost your confidence before your next session:

✨ Wear something that makes you feel good.
Choose outfits that fit well, reflect your style, and make you feel like the best version of you.

✨ Practice posture + breathing.
Good posture instantly improves how you carry yourself — and deep breaths help you relax and release tension.

✨ Shift your mindset.
Instead of focusing on how you look, focus on what the photo represents — your personality, your story, your growth.

✨ Work with a photographer who gets it.
That’s where I come in. I’ll guide you through every step of the process — from what to wear to how to pose — so you feel confident, comfortable, and genuinely you in every shot.

📸 Let’s create photos you actually love. Contact me to chat or book your session.

What if I told you your next team photo didn’t require everyone being there at the same time? 👀

Composite team photos are the modern way to keep your brand looking sharp—without the hassle of syncing schedules or redoing your whole photo every time someone joins or leaves.

👉 I photograph each team member individually, then blend them into one cohesive image. It’s flexible, polished, and made to grow with your team.

Perfect for:

✔️ Busy schedules

✔️ Hybrid or remote teams

✔️ Fast-growing companies

Swipe through to see how it works + answers to common questions!
