A successful headshot session is all about preparation. By taking the time to plan ahead, you’ll feel confident, look your best, and radiate professionalism in your final images. Here are some valuable tips to ensure a stress-free and successful experience:
- Wardrobe Wins: Choose attire that reflects your professional brand and works within your industry standards.
Opt for solid colors and avoid busy patterns that might draw attention away from your eyes. You want the first thing someone connects to in your image is your eyes!
Another quick tip: It’s always better to have a few outfit options to choose from during your photo session. - Hair and Makeup: Depending on your hair style and type, sometimes it’s best to schedule a haircut or touch-up a few days before your session. Or you can opt to hire a professional hair stylist and make-up professional to be on-set during your session!
- Conquer Camera Anxiety: It’s normal to feel a few jitters before and during your session.
Take some deep breaths, practice positive affirmations, and remind yourself of the amazing outcome you’re working towards. A solid professional photographer who is skilled in headshot photography will absolutely know how to calm you during your session and capture images where you look relaxed and confident! - Be Camera Ready: Get a good night’s sleep before your session and arrive well-hydrated. Most professionals will have water and snacks on hand to keep you from getting too thirsty or hangry!
