Professional Headshots in Downtown Toronto

fashion shoot & portrait combo:

/ / / / / a birthday photoshoot

William decided to make the sweet gesture of purchasing a portrait package for his girlfriend’s 25th birthday present. He knew she needed an update for her Linkedin profile picture as that she had an interest in having her portrait taken.

Since the Standard Package he booked came with 2 outfit changes, she was able to kill two birds with one stone and get a mixture of business and casual headshots. We threw in a couple of our fashion poses to change up the feeling, giving her some variation of poses to choose from later.

Need some advice with what to wear to keep it casual and cool? Strong silhouettes and a heavy fabric make for an impact that contrasts well against soft feminine features.

tips for your corporate and linkedin headshot:

/ / / / / cozy and classic

Confused about what to wear for your corporate headshot? I could explain it in ways ways, but let’s start easy. Before there were colours, there were shades. There’s really no failing if you suit up with a classic black and white combo.

This outfit plays with what I like to call “primary shades” (obvious whites, a medium grey, or pure black). Anything primary will strongly communicate an element of contrast. What this means is where there is contrast, the eye will go.

Despite it’s draw to the eye, due to it’s simplicity there it provides no temptation for the eye to wander, as our focus is guided with ease towards the face.

tips for your studio portrait:

/ / / / / a modern family portrait

We’ve said it many times before, that we are like blood brothers of customization like Subway, but these days I’ve been thinking, we are actually better than Subway. At Subway you can’t bring your own ingredients to spice up your sandwich, but at King Street Photo Studio—you can.

We take personalization to the extreme, and provide no limitations on how many props and objects of your desire you can bring. So whether it’s your favourite coffee mug, sweater, cardigan thrown over your shoulder in a cheeky manner, or just your bff guitar, bring it along to your portrait session and let us capture you, how you like it.

/ / / / / our classic studio set up served “to-go”

The other day we took a little field trip to the CIBC office in Thornhill, where we met a handful of their senior and junior employees to update their headshots. Since we didn’t have the good fortune of finding a clean wall anywhere in the offices, we brought our own backdrop to recreate that in-studio feeling. With our professional lighting gear packed up, we’re only one call and an uber ride away from capturing your staff headshots and portrait !

to be or not to be organic with natural light:

/ / / / / warm skintones for familiarity

Though it’s great to have full control in the studio and create exactly the type of lighting you want, it’s always a fun idea to throw in a couple playful shots incorporating natural light to change the look up. Here you can see the skin tonality is a bit less contoured as well the colour feels warmer because of cast from the sun. When shooting portraiture we usually tend to lean towards having natural light as the main source since it’s a tint that our eyes are used to seeing in everyday life.

to do or not to do black and white headshots:

/ / / / / classic but not conservative portraiture

Twist it up from your colleagues and jump on your chance to get not only a formal portrait, but a bit of a personality shot by adding a touch of business casual. Roll up your sleeves, undo a couple buttons and let your tie loose for a character portrait that stands out from the lot. We like this take on a corporate portrait where we took inspiration from acting headshots, promoting class and good character with a silhouetted black and white effect.
