What to Wear for a Headshot Session

Planning your wardrobe for any photo shoot is the hardest part of the entire process.  Planning what to wear for your headshot session is an important part of the success of the headshot session.  Think about your brand, the colors on your website, the industry that you’re in, and what you typically wear to the office.  This is a good starting place for deciding what to wear.  The classic black suit jacket is always right unless you prefer to be more casual.  Darker, solid colors are best instead of patterns.  Ladies should think about necklines and jewelry.  I like jewelry in a headshot but just be sure that it doesn’t distract from the face.  We want the focal point of the headshot to be the face.

Planning the location for your headshot session is another important consideration.  See the article on about How to Choose a Location for Your Headshot Session.

Headshots for Shannon

Shannon has changed careers and is now a real estate agent.  Before she can even begin with open houses or showings, she needs a headshot for her business cards.  We had a fantastic headshot session with a variety of backgrounds, lighting, and posing.  We even used my home as the backdrop for some images.  Realtors need multiple headshots for all of the different advertising they do in different publications.  These headshots will give her some variety and a great start to her marketing materials.

Your 2026 version is calling, and she looks good. 📞✨

As we dive into the new year, the businesses that will stand out are the ones that lead with clarity and consistency.

When your entire team shows up with cohesive, high-quality headshots, it sends a message:

✅ We are professional
✅ We are a unit
✅ We pay attention to detail

These final results show exactly what happens when you prioritize your brand’s visual identity.

Investment in yourself is the only investment with a guaranteed return. How are you choosing to show up for your clients this year?

New year, new standards. DM me to discuss a headshot refresh for you OR your whole team!
Here's the truth 👇🏻

Your professional image is often the first impression potential clients and partners have of your expertise.

Starting 2026 with updated, polished headshots isn't just about looking good—it's about showing up with the credibility your experience deserves.

Whether it's for your website, LinkedIn, or your entire team's branding, professional imagery sends a clear message: you're serious about your business.

You know what's quietly costing you clients? 👇🏼

 Inconsistent branding.

When your team's headshots are all over the place—different backgrounds, different lighting, some from 2019—it's doing more damage than you think:

❌ Confuses your audience 
❌ Makes your business feel less established 
❌ Creates hesitation before booking 
❌ Forces you to "reintroduce" yourself every time you post

But here's what happens when your visual branding is cohesive and professional:

✔️ Builds recognition over time 
✔️ Makes showing up online easier 
✔️ Reinforces professionalism 
✔️ Creates momentum and trust

This is why I bring headshot stations directly to your corporate events—your entire team gets updated, consistent imagery without anyone having to schedule 47 individual appointments.

One session. Cohesive branding. Done.

You don't need to BE confident to show up for a headshot session. The session creates the confidence.

Most professionals avoid updating their headshots because they think they need to feel confident first. But that's backwards. 

My clients are always surprised by how great their photos look—and that instant confidence boost changes how they show up in their business.

Here's what happens when you work with me: 👇🏼

→ I guide your posing so you look natural and professional
→ I direct your expression so your personality shines through
→ I handle the lighting so you look polished and approachable
→ You walk away with imagery that makes you feel like the expert you already are

You don't need to know how to pose or what to do with your hands. That's my job. Your job is just to show up.

Ready to stop waiting until you "feel confident enough"? Let's create the confidence together.
