Tips for a Professional Corporate Headshot Session

It’s easy to be prepared for your professional corporate headshot session.  But preparation is key.  Here are a few tips to make the headshot session smooth and successful:

Before the Session

  1. Choose clothing that matches your style and brand.
  2. Try on the clothing that you plan to wear and make sure that it fits properly.  A suit jacket or buttoned shirt that doesn’t fit (either too big or too small) will show in the image.
  3. Make sure that clothing is clean, wrinkle-free, and smudge-free.  I will have a lint roller for any extra lint flying around.
  4. Get rest and hydrate the night before the session.
  5. If you wear glasses, consider them for the headshot.  Do you want to wear them for the headshot?  If so, I have some tricks that we can use to minimize glare.

During the Session

  1. Take a deep breath and relax.  These will make the most genuine headshots.  I will help by directing your pose.
  2. Tell me about any preferences you have for flattering angles or things that you want to minimize.  This will help me in posing too.
  3. As we review images together, let me know if there are things you’d like to adjust to get the best headshot possible.

After the Session

  1. Depending on the type of session,  you will either see a proof gallery and will choose your favorite images or we will have chosen our favorite image together during the session.
  2. Your favorite image(s) will be fully edited and retouched.
  3. Do let me know if there’s something that needs attention after retouching.

For more information on preparing for your headshot session, read another headshot article.

Newfield

Newfield has a new member of their board of directors.  They called me for a headshot session.  Since he’s just being introduced to the company, he had meetings throughout the office that day.  However, I was set up and ready to go as soon as he walked in.  Within minutes, his headshot was completed and he verified that there were several good shots in the bunch.  Then he was off to another lunch meeting.  Perfect.

You’re not supposed to know what to do in front of the camera—that’s my job. 🙌🏼

I’ll tell you where to put your hands, how to angle your body, when to shift your weight, where to look, and yes… I’ll probably demonstrate it myself first. 😂

Good posing isn’t about memorizing a bunch of complicated positions. It’s about making small adjustments that help you look confident, approachable, and like yourself.

And if you want a little head start before your next headshot or branding session, I put together a free guide with 5 Power Poses Every Professional Should Know.

These are simple poses you can use for professional photos, speaking engagements, events, or anytime a camera gets pointed your way.

📸 Grab the free guide through the link in my bio—and save this reel as proof that you will never be left standing in front of my camera wondering what to do with your hands. 😂

I’ve been a photographer for a long time, and somewhere along the way I realized the photos are only part of what I get to create. 🤍

I get to help someone who hates being photographed finally feel comfortable in front of the camera.

I get to help business owners show up confidently for the brands they’ve worked so hard to build.

Yes, I make photographs.

But I also get to create confidence, connection, and something worth holding onto.

And I think that’s a pretty great way to make a living. 📸

Ready to create something of your own? Whether you need updated headshots, fresh branding photos, senior portraits, or family photos, I’d love to have you in front of my camera.

If your team is constantly changing… this is worth knowing. 👇🏼

Group photos can be one of the hardest things to keep updated—especially for businesses with high turnover, growing teams, or people who aren’t always in the same place at the same time.

That’s where a group composite comes in.

Instead of trying to coordinate everyone for one big photo, I photograph each person individually—so you get cohesive, professional headshots—and then build the group image from there.

The biggest benefit?

When someone joins or leaves your team, you don’t have to start over. We simply update the composite—no need to reschedule a full team session.

It’s a much more flexible (and realistic) way to keep your team looking consistent and up to date.

If your team photos have been on your to-do list, this might be the solution you’ve been looking for.

2027 graduates… this is your moment. ✨👇🏻

Senior year comes up faster than you think—and before you know it, calendars are full and you’re trying to squeeze something in last minute.

The best sessions happen when there’s time to plan.
Time to choose the right location, the right outfits, and create photos that actually feel like you.

Every senior you see here had a session that was intentional, relaxed, and built around who they are.

That’s what makes the difference.

If you’re part of the Class of 2027 (or the parent of), now is the time to start thinking about your session.
