Before taking your headshot photograph consider the following tips to ensure a professional and high-quality result:
- Choose a professional look: Your headshot should reflect your professionalism and personality. Opt for a clean and simple background, and avoid overly trendy clothing or distracting accessories (unless it’s a part of your personal branding).
- Wear appropriate attire: Dress in a way that reflects your industry and the professional image you want to convey. For example, business professionals should wear formal attire, while actors and models may choose more creative outfits.
- Maintain open and friendly body language: Your attitude should be open and friendly, and warmth should radiate from your eyes.
- Color and size: Check to see if your company or website designer has specifications for the image formatting. If so, let your photographer know so they can provide your final imagery in the correct dimensions.
- Prepare for the shoot: Do some preparation, such as getting a haircut or practicing your smile, and getting a good night’s sleep, so that you can have fun during the shoot and let your personality shine through.
