Reasons Why You Need a Professional Corporate Headshot | Houston Headshot Photographer

Reasons Why You Need a Professional Corporate Headshot

A professional corporate headshot is paramount to success in today’s marketplace.  Here are a few reasons why you need a professional corporate headshot.

  1. Professionalism.  Profile pictures are everywhere.  Almost every new website login offers an upload for your profile picture.  For sites like LinkedIn, the profile picture should be professional.  A professional corporate headshot shows the marketplace that you are qualified, confident, and ready to work.  The headshot underlines the skills and experiences you have stated on your resume.
  2. Personality.  You can tell a lot about a person by their headshot.  Is it light, bright, and smiley?  Or is it dark, starched, and serious?  Often, you can tell what a person does by looking at their headshot, especially if they are wearing clothing that matches the job or are in a work environment.
  3. Networking.  A professional corporate headshot can help with networking.  After that meet-and-greet with so many people, the headshot displayed on your website or social media site will remind people of your conversation.  Perhaps a new business relationship, partnership, or deal could be the result.  Make sure your headshot is professional so that you can continue that networking relationship and close the deal.

 

Headshots with June

June contacted me about a headshot and said what so many people do when they meet me during a session.  “I hate to have my picture taken.”  Oh if I only had a dollar.  June specifically needed a black background for her company headshot.  With her big beautiful smile, we were able to capture a fantastic headshot and get exactly what she needed.  She was so happy that she wanted to show her daughter right away.

Some poses might feel a little silly in the moment and that’s okay. 📸👇🏼

One of the biggest secrets to great photos is being willing to experiment.

What feels “unnatural” in real life often looks confident, effortless, and polished on camera. That’s why posing is such a big part of what I do during every session.

I’ll guide you through adjustments, test different angles, and fine-tune details so we find what truly works for you.

You don’t need to overthink it or worry about how you look — trusting the process is where the magic happens.

You show up. I’ll handle the posing.

Your face is the star of your headshot — and how your hair frames it makes all the difference. ✨

Here`s what most people miss: hair should frame your features, not compete with them.

✨ Thicker hair? Pull it back to highlight your face.

✨ Thinner hair? Bring it forward for balance and dimension.

Small adjustments like this help your headshot truly reflect you — confident, polished, and professional.

The goal is simple: when someone sees your photo, they see YOU. Your personality, your confidence, your energy — all in one image.

Here`s why a branding session should be on your 2026 business to-do list:👇🏼

Fresh professional photos aren`t just about looking polished (though that`s nice too).

Think about it: Your website needs updated imagery. Your social media needs consistent visuals. Your email signature needs a current headshot. Your speaking proposals need professional photos. Your media kit needs variety.

Without a strategic branding session, you`re either:

❌ Using the same 3 photos on repeat (hello, stale feed)

❌ Scrambling with last-minute iPhone selfies that don`t match your brand

❌ Wasting time every month trying to create new content

A solid branding session gives you dozens of professional images you can pull from all year long. Different backgrounds, different outfits, different vibes—all ready to go when you need them.

Stop recreating the wheel every time you need a visual. Get it done once, use it everywhere.

Ready to stock your content vault? Let`s talk strategy.
