Professional Business and Portrait Headshots

Corporate and Business Professional Headshots:

/ / / / / thunder grey background for your portrait

Though it might be your tendency to lean towards a light background (and we see it especially more so in women) our thunder grey could be the background of your dreams!  Plus we think a bright red lip makes a smashing accent against this shade!

Don’t be afraid to add some some extra sparkle to your professional Linkedin photo. Minimalistic jewellery that is not distracting from your face, work best for headshots. Have fun and mix things up as you never know how things are going to pickup on camera with all the lights and action!

Professional Corporate and Linkedin Headshots

Studio Business and Corporate Linkedin Headshots:

/ / / / / All shades of black and white!

Everyone is doing their headshots against a grey or white, why not be a little different and try black on black? In this look, the colour of your tie is the real game changer. Just imagine if his tie were darker such as a burgundy red or navy—it’s the lightness of the yellow that helps balance out the tones.

Black backgrounds are more often recommended for those who have a fair to medium complexion, rather than a pale one. Don’t have a real tan? No problem! Just ask us for a touch up in photoshop we’ll make it look like you just came back from a relaxing weekend in the tropics.

Business and Linkedin Studio Headshots:

/ / / / / opt for off white

When given the choice, we prefer to tint our white background to a slightly warm shade of yellow, and always, always avoid over brightening the backdrop.

The fact of the matter is, it’s not Y2K anymore, and the need for a portrait against a bright white cheeky background reminiscent of a stock photo—is dying. That’s one vintage aesthetic we don’t want coming back in style any time soon, as it’s not flattering to any complexion (let alone someone with white hair!)

Couple and Family Portrait in the Studio:

/ / / / / pets are welcome!

Complete your family portrait and bring your pets along for the fun! Make the photo comes alive with the addition of your furry friend. How cute does this couple look with their new baby along the way, and their current baby, Benji the husky pup?

For couple photoshoots, one tip we have is to consider matching the outfit with your partner. It doesn't have to be straight forward matchy matchy, but rather a similarity in the tone of style is key (for example casual, formal, or semi-formal) should always be taken into consideration.

Corporate and Business Headshots:

/ / / / / choose between a vertical or horizontal portrait!

As a base, we take all our headshots in a horizontal (or landscape) orientation. That gives us the most flexibility to crop the photo if needed, like in the example above.

Although most would agree that a vertical shot is intimidating since the focus is directly on their face, with no place for their eyes to escape, up close and personal.

Despite that, it’s still an ideal way to remove any distractions and get straight to the point—which is that a headshot should be focused on your head first and foremost, and not your body!

In this photoshoot with Clara, we started off nice and easy by shooting her business headshot against a grey background. Since she booked the Professional Package, she had enough time to switch the background and her wardrobe and go casual for her second look.

We encouraged the use of a black background, which is our go to option when it comes to creating a moody and artistic portrait. Since the images were going to be used on social media, we threw the rules out the window and even suggested having a seat on the floor with out shoes to make her look and feel comfortable.
