How can I prepare for a successful headshot session?Choose attire that aligns with your industry, practice natural poses, and ensure a well-groomed appearance to make the most of your session. Communicate your vision or concept: If needed get some inspiration on poses and attitude to aim for. Send reference photos to the photographer, makeup artist or hair stylist before photoshoot to get an idea on the look you want. (you can check on pinterest or ask photographer to help you) Prepare multiple outfits for photoshoot so you have options to choose from. Prepare music playlist for photoshoot day Exfoliate skin a few times a week Moisturize for your skin to look nourished and fresh Book appointment with hairdresser or hair stylist. Body and skin: Eat clean foods if you don't already do this. A body detox can take multiple days. Try to go to gym. It can also boost your self-confidence.

Locations examples: Photo studio, your office , living room, park, forest, home/garden. For example one of the clients had a photoshoot done in her living room with my flash lights setup and in the end we made photos also in her garden outside. I can come to your desired location or If you don't have a specific location in mind I can give you examples (based on your area). If needed, I can travel with my studio lights to your office/home or other types of locations.
-
What colours should I wear?Rich deep colours such as green, blue, navy, maroon, mustard and burnt orange work nicely. Very strong colours like a bold red or bright orange & yellow often over power the subject. Pale blue, pinks and pastels often make things look more youthful. Earthy, grey and neutral tones are a good safe bet. Black are always useful but don’t take everything in Black. Conservative companies and jobs like lawyers & accountants typically wear darker colors. This provides a more grounded feeling of trust, steadiness, and confidence. You can throw in small pops of color to stand out but predominantly stick to darker tones. For smaller companies and start-ups, it’s almost expected that you wear more casual clothing with brighter colors. These groups are about energy, innovation, and personality. The easiest thing you can do to ensure you get great photos is to bring options to your session. Bring your favorite colors and other variations. It’s easy to take more clothes and let your photographer help you decide out which looks the best on camera. This will help make sure you get the best look. Some colors that always flatter no matter what are deep reds, shades in the blue-green family, and grays. I also suggest using complementary colors when layering.
-
Are your headshot packages customisable?Yes, we offer customisable packages to ensure you get exactly what you need for your specific requirements.
-
Why should I invest in professional headshots?Professional headshots make a strong first impression in business and online presence. They convey confidence, credibility, and approachability. Think of your professional photo or headshot as the logo for your personal brand. Studies have shown that people can recall 65% of the visual content they see in comparison to about 10% of written content almost three days later. Adding a photo to your LinkedIn profile makes you 36 times more likely to receive a message on LinkedIn, and LinkedIn profiles with a profile photo receive 21 times more views than those without a profile photo. According to LinkedIn, users who have a professional headshot get 14 times more views than those without.
