And even if they wonโ€™t, consider this: images of you taken during a rough patch in life, later could bring back unwanted memories every time you see them.

And unwanted memories could make you appreciate your images less.

Therefore, it's often best to wait until you're feeling more like yourself, so your headshot really shows off the ๐—ฐ๐—ผ๐—ป๐—ณ๐—ถ๐—ฑ๐—ฒ๐—ป๐˜, ๐—ณ๐—ฒ๐—ฒ๐—น๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ด ๐—ด๐—ผ๐—ผ๐—ฑ, ๐—ฝ๐—ฟ๐—ผ๐—ณ๐—ฒ๐˜€๐˜€๐—ถ๐—ผ๐—ป๐—ฎ๐—น you.

A mood board can serve as a visual guide that ensures both you and the photographer share the same vision for the shoot.

This can be particularly useful for more complex, creative and non-standard shoots.

Pinterest works the best, but an email with screenshots, low-res photos, or links to examples can suffice.

Mood board and communication is the best way to keep expectations for the visual direction in check.

๐——๐—œ๐—ฌ ๐˜ƒ๐˜€ ๐—ฃ๐—ฟ๐—ผ

While smartphones and consumer cameras have improved, they can't replace the expertise of a professional photographer.

A DIY headshot often lacks the correct lighting, posing, expression that helps your story better, and post-production that make you look your absolute best.

Remember, your business headshot often serves as a first impression.

A mediocre business image compared to the right one could be the determining factor in whether that first impression becomes the last one.

When scheduling your business headshot session, consider your personal rhythms and routines.

Carefully considered photo session timing will help present yourself better in front of the camera and will get better results.

Are you a morning person who feels fresh and vibrant after waking up, or are you more of a night owl who hits their stride in early afternoon?

Schedule your session when you're least stressed and have most energy and avoid scheduling photography session after intense meetings, extensive traveling, or at the end busy day.

Clothes can make or break your headshot, serving as a visual extension of your personal brand. Opt for comfort, repair, and fit when choosing your outfit.

Remember, your attire should be appropriate for your brand and the message you aim to convey.

Pay attention to details like wear and tear, wrinkles or stretched buttons that can spoil that all-important first impression.

Know Who Your Headshot Is For
________

Identifying the qualities or characteristics you want to portray is crucial. Your business headshot should encapsulate your professional persona within a single frame.

Would you like to come across as approachable, confident, mysterious, or perhaps smarter, than the viewer?

Make a list of traits you want to communicate and consult with your photographer to ensure that the headshot truly reflects who you are.
