Whether this is your first professional headshot or you’ve had them done before, with a bit of thought and preparation, these headshot tips will ensure you receive fantastic photographs.
Pick colours best that will be best for your eyes and skin tones. Black or White clothing is not considered the best colours to wear however if you usually wear these colours, I guarantee that I will get great headshots for you.
Blue tones are usually a safe bet, but please wear colours you feel confident in or are part of your image or brand. Shirts with collars are the most flattering, and they frame the face.
Large chunky jewellery can be distracting, so that should be avoided. Ladies, wearing a scarf can add a professional look to your image.
I recommend having your hair cut a few days before your headshot. The same also goes if you will be having your hair coloured.
You will need to wear more makeup than you usually wear. (Yes, even guys need some makeup.) Don’t go overboard, though, but much more than you wear in real life. Makeup looks a lot different on camera and with studio lights.
If you are happy to wear makeup, I recommend foundation, bronzer and maybe some. Since you guys have less makeup experience, you’ll probably need a makeup artist to help you out, and I can recommend someone if required.
A thicker foundation with more coverage, more mascara, some eyeliner, more lipstick.
To help you relax, I am happy to play music in the studio, so feel free to bring along your music player with your favourite music that makes you want to dance.
I will take numerous photographs to capture plenty of perfect ones.
If you have chosen the package with two backdrops or more, I will include photographs taken with natural lighting. This is flattering and allows you to have a more excellent range of pictures and styles.
You will have many photographs to choose from. All your selected photos will have basic editing to correct colour and lighting. Depending on which package you go for, you will also have several photographs that will be fully edited and retouched to remove blemishes and make you look even more impressive.
I want to make sure that you have the most enjoyable professional headshot experience and receive the very best photographs – you have my word.
