Searching for that Perfect Headshot?
Let me first say that there’s probably no such thing as the perfect headshot. Everyone has a role or function in their company and everyone is different. Therefore, no one headshot is perfect for everyone! However, there are a few things to keep in mind when planning for YOUR perfect headshot.
- Hire a professional photographer who specializes in headshots. Yes, lots of photographers provide headshots. But if you choose the cheapest photographer in your area, the results may be less than perfect. Visit the Professional Photographers of America (PPA) website to learn about what makes a certified professional photographer and find one in your area. Visit the photographer’s website and review their headshot work.
- Be prepared for your headshot session. Plan your wardrobe and make sure that it’s clean and pressed and that it fits! Bring a couple of options for wardrobe. Hair and makeup for ladies should be appropriate for your position. Get some rest the night before your session so you look fresh and friendly!
- Communicate with your photographer. Tell your photographer anything that you can about the headshot. What do you need it for (press publication, website, LinkedIn, company profile, etc.)? Does it need to match or be similar to other company headshots? Have you had a headshot in the past? When was that and how did it go?
With a little planning before your headshot session, you can get YOUR perfect headshot.
Headshots for Capstone Family Practice
I have photographed the doctors and staff for Capstone Family Practice. A new member joined the team and she came to the studio for her headshot. We knew exactly which background and layout to use since we were matching the other headshots in the office. Leah’s headshot is a great example of her perfect headshot. It’s relaxed and comfortable and friendly, just like her! We printed her headshot as well so that her headshot can join the others hanging in the office. Well done, Leah and Capstone Family Practice!
