How to Create Unique Corporate Headshots

Corporate headshots begin with discussion about your company.  What business are you in and what is your brand?  I like to review the company website as well before we discuss options for headshots.  If the website is all white with a light and airy feel, then we will want the headshots posted on the website to have that same style.  If the website is dark and more formal, we want the headshots to reflect that as well.  Matching the tone of the headshot with your brand and website go a long way toward making the headshots feel like they were planned and create a cohesive look.  If you are re-doing your website, you may want to wait until some of the color and tone of the website decisions are made before scheduling the headshot session.  First, review the style, colors, and tones with your photographer.  Decide on a background for the headshots.  Then advise everyone on wardrobe and clothing to match the style and colors.  Finally, include some aspect to create that unique feel for your corporate headshots.

Headshots for Paradigm Construction

Sydney contacted me about updated headshots for Paradigm Construction.  When we spoke on the phone, she knew that she wanted to use the brick wall in the conference room as the background for their images.  This makes sense because they are a construction company.  The brick wall makes a very unique and purposeful environment for the headshots.  I was thrilled.  Once I was set up in the conference room, we were able to get all 23 people photographed.  Then a group photo with Briley, the company dog!  It was so adorable…looking at me and smiling for the camera.  Finally, a presentation to the CEO by his father for the fifth anniversary and it was a wrap.

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.
