LinkedIn Corporate Business Headshots Photographer

It may sound strange, but believe me when I say showing your ear in a business portrait is a lot trickier than it seems! For whatever the reason, we associate ears with youth. My theory is that since kids have such healthy hair, it often gets in the way and they have to put it back out of habit and practicality. Sooner or later they grow up with a nagging society telling them to loosen up and “let their hair down.”

In our years of shooting, we have however seen one exception across the boards, which is that ears pair well with fresh asymmetrical bobs. Due to the weight of the haircut already being unbalanced, the ear accentuates this silhouette and makes it more comfortable to look at, acting as a frame to the face.

Let us take you a step outside for a whole new world of backgrounds! Brick is one of the magical textures that works for almost anything. Professional yet approachable and down to earth, these are the things that brick evokes with out being too over stating. The minimalist wardrobe contrasts its sharp and modern silhouette against a fluffy bokeh of bricks. Warm in nature, you can’t go wrong with placing any skin tone against this background.

We love how easily a plain white background can be spruced up with a touch of colour harmony. A great tip when selecting what tie to wear, is to choose a colour that’s similar to your shirt. That way no matter what your expression, there’s at least one thing that’s pulled together right in every shot!

Colour wise we recommend to stick to blues and even shades of grey, and when going for more adventurous colours, a warmer shade usually complements everyone well due to the naturally occurring warmth in skin.

Pop out against our unseemingly popular background option—black! It may sound a bit intimidating at first, as we’ve all been raised seeing the sometimes cheeky corporate shots on that strikingly classic bright white background.

Trust us when we say for men and women alike, the black, or “charcoal” as we sometimes call it, will bring out your best features in a way white never could. Essentially this is done by colour distribution, whatever colour is next to you, will ever so subtly cast a shadow/hue onto your body. What that means for a solid black is more definition, and more bone structure.

Cecilia came into the studio aiming to get a single all purpose professional headshot to use wherever she pleased in the corporate online sphere. She didn’t get a chance to touch up her roots before coming on set, so we casually and coyly coloured in her hair to be an even tone! We offer precise and professional editing services for no extra fee, let us know what specifications you have for your image and we’ll take care of the rest!

Alison booked our Standard Package and wanted to get a couple options of a simple and classic headshot she could use professionally wherever she pleased. Because the Standard Package gives you two outfit changes, diplomatically she prepared one light, and one dark outfit. Since the package came with 3 photos, she could pick between some variation that we made in our 40 minute session. Book a Standard or Complete Package and get the luxury of changing outfits, and see the difference a simple top swap can make in the overall first impression of your headshot.

Professional Linkedin Corporate and Business Portrait

Cari was getting featured by a corporate magazine and needed to submit a headshot to the publishers. She had had her business headshot taken prior to them asking, however the photographer who shot her before didn’t capture her in the right spirit that would suit a magazine cover. As we always say, photographers are not alike, and despite the fact that her previous photo had been taken by a professional and was good enough for Linkedin, when it came to retouching and image quality, it did not meet the requirements necessary for it to be blown up on a 8.5 x 11 format. All the best with the issue Cari!
