Professional Business Headshots and Portrait

/ / / / / glasses for your professional headshots?

Even if you are a daily glasses wearer, it’s not always a good enough reason to include them in your headshot! Read through our tips below when it comes to shooting with glasses in your professional portrait.

1 longevity
The first thing to consider is for how much longer you will be wearing your particular pair of frames. If you plan on updating them within the next year, it will make your headshot feel more outdated than it actually is by the time you change into a new style.

2 characteristic frames
Another thing to consider is how balanced the glasses appear with your outfit. In real life we see more of someone’s body as opposed to a headshot. Therefore thicker frames glasses (or even busy/colourful glasses) have the tendency to appear too heavy in the context of a headshot.

3 tinted glasses
Although convenient for you day to day activities, it can take up to 15 minutes or more for the effect of tinted glasses to wear off, and all that waiting doesn’t prove helpful when you may be already nervous for your headshot!

Corporate and Business Portrait for Professionals

Environmental Portrait and Headshots

/ / / / / personable portraits on a natural background

Are you interested in something different than the typical clean studio background that others usually have? You may want to give our indoor window variation a try then! Lit predominantly by the sun, this warm toned environmental background is suitable for those needing a headshot that is both personable and interpersonal, ideal for communication based jobs such as consultants, psychologists, marketing, and public relations.

We wanted this shot to be as personable as possible, so by framing a little loosely we incorporated more of the body in the shot which in turn created more body language for the viewer to read. Imagine the reverse, a headshot without arms or even the torso fully showing—there are simply less visuals to work with to create the particular emotion you are aiming for.

Modelling Portfolio and Polaroids

This time our model brought with her simple form fitting clothes as well as a fitness look. Toronto has a big market for commercial and lifestyle modelling, so we highly recommend bringing a variety of wardrobe styles if you want to showcase your versatility.

Professional Wedding Portrait Editorial Style

Wedding Couple Editorial Portrait:

/ / / / / hand painted canvas background

We are starting the new year with some new backdrops to offer our clients! Here is our first portrait taken against our blue-green hand painted canvas. If you are looking for a bit of character in your photo, this background choice may be worth considering.

It adds an editorial touch, and with various props and chairs to choose from you can personalize the shoot to your liking. Feel free to bring your own props too like your favourite mug, books—or even your pet ! We love how this bright flower bouquet pops against the grey background.

Professional Business Headshots Downtown Toronto

Application Headshot for Residency:

/ / / / / How to wear your hair for your photoshoot

Most of our packages come with multiple looks, which either means you could either change your wardrobe, background, or even your hair style !

In this particular photoshoot the client’s favourite angle and background choice was kept the same, with the variation being only in her hair style. This is a great example of how one subtle change can effect the energy of the whole image. Which one do you guys think is best for a friendly and professional headshot?

Team and Group Corporate Headshots

Business Headshots for your Company:

/ / / / / Corporate Group Package

Window Background for Corporate Portrait

Professional Business Headshots:

/ / / / / On location photo studio

Book our Deluxe Package and have us bring the studio to you! For this shot we went on location to an office downtown and brought along with us a two light set up. It’s always a lot easier to act naturally when you are comfortable in your environment.

We kept a couple “props” on the table to make it look like we had just candidly snapped her headshot while at work. If you’re interested in having us come to you, simply send us a couple snapshots of the space(s) available for us to shoot in, the location, and any other details you have in mind, and we can take the rest from there! Pro tip: reflective tables look really good.
