Using Office Backgrounds for Headshots

Sometimes a studio backdrop is necessary for corporate headshots.  Studio backdrops and lighting make for very consistent and uniform corporate headshots.  This is helpful with a larger team or company.  Another modern alternative is to use the office as a background for the headshots.  Start by reviewing your company brand, logo, and color scheme.  Is it light or dark?  Is your website mostly light or dark?  What colors are prominent in your website?  These questions will help guide us through the process of finding a great space in your office for a background for corporate headshots.

Headshots for PGAL

PGAL is an international design firm specializing in architecture, interiors, engineering, and planning for a diverse portfolio of public and private sector clients.  As we planned for their corporate headshots, the company was able to send me a snapshot of the common area with these red chairs.  Because the red chairs match their company logo and colors, this was great spot for headshots.  A wall of windows helped the headshots to be bright and airy with a pop of color.  I love the light feel and beautiful skin tones that we achieved in these headshots.  PGAL can now use the headshots in proposals for work with each headshot carrying forward the company’s look and feel.

Most men think they don’t know how to pose for a headshot…

but it’s not about knowing poses.

It’s about a few simple adjustments that make you look confident and natural on camera.

A couple go-to options (like the classic “GQ” stance, arms crossed, or a relaxed lean) can completely change how you show up.

And the rest? That’s what I guide you through.

📥 If you’re also not sure what to wear, I’ve got you covered—grab my Men’s Style Guide for Headshots through the link in my bio.

📩 Ready for updated headshots? You can book through the link as well.
If you’re just getting started in photography… don’t worry about finding your niche right away.

When I first started, I photographed everything—weddings, babies, families, headshots, corporate… if someone needed photos, I was there.

And that’s how you figure it out.

You don’t find your niche by waiting—you find it by doing the work, learning what you like, and getting better with every session.

Every type of shoot teaches you something different.
Every client builds your experience.

Over time, you start to see what actually fits you—and that’s where your expertise comes from.

📥 If you’re in that phase right now, I’ve put together resources to help—covering lighting, gear, posing, and more.

✨ Grab them through the link in my bio!
Senior portraits are just one piece of what I do 👇🏻

I also work with:
✅ professionals who need updated headshots
✅ business owners building their brand
✅ families capturing this season of life
✅ and actors/models creating strong portfolio images

Different sessions—but the same goal:
helping people show up confidently and authentically on camera

📩 If you’re not sure what kind of session you need, let’s figure it out together—link in bio to learn more.
Senior sessions with moms and sons are always… an experience 😂

A little back-and-forth, a few eye rolls, and somehow we still end up with photos everyone loves.

Honestly, those in-between moments are usually the best part.

📩 DM me if you’ve been putting off senior photos—there’s still time.
