4 Tips To Get The Perfect Headshots

December 27, 2022
Blog  ·  Lifestyle  ·  Photography

When taking corporate headshots, there are a few things you can do to make sure you get the  most out of your photos, and come out of the session feeling happy and excited with the end result! 

When you feel relaxed and confident, its much easier to capture those awesome photos you’re going to be sharing all over!!

  1. Get comfortable

Feeling comfortable with getting your photos’ taken is really helpful when it comes to headshots. I know it;s easier said than done, but if you’re really nervous with the thought of getting your picture taken – have your friends or family take some practice shots to make you feel comfortable and at ease!! Make it fun, silly and take them in a space that feels right to you. That way, when you’re gearing up for your official shoot – you can take the feeling from your practice sessions and apply it here

2. Opt for clothing that screams you!

You want YOU to shine through in your headshot session. So, why not wear clothes that you would actually wear or align with your business. Choose an outfit that makes you feel confident, cause trust me … it will show through your photos

3. Get clear on time 

Schedule out the timing for your session. This is something I always help my clients with so we are maximizing time and getting as many shots as possible. We can block out photos for certain outfits, locations and more so we know what headshots you want to capture and the vibe you want to give off

4. Get Rest

I know this sounds like a simple one .. but it really makes a difference. When you feel well rested and rejuvenated for your session, your energy really shifts. Feeling awake and refreshed translates in photos!

Don’t worry, when having your headshot taken … its a team effort! I’ll help guide you through each part of your session and make sure you’re fully prepared. That way, you can show up at ease and excited for the magic we’re going to create together!!

Think of your visual identity—the colours, the lighting, the tone of your videos—as your brand's voice. Is it consistently saying the same thing across your website, social media, and marketing materials?

Inconsistent visuals confuse the client and dilute your memorability. Great photography and videography services ensure every piece of content speaks with the same, powerful tone.

Consistency is the key to credibility. You want clients to feel they know you before they even send that first email.

The Boss CEO Vibe isn’t just about what you do— it’s about the visual authority you command.

A top-tier professional knows that their online presence is a direct reflection of their standards.

Are your visuals whispering mediocrity when your results are shouting excellence?

The Power of Branding Photography & Videography:
Investing in custom, high-impact photo and video content is a strategic CEO move. It’s not an expense; it’s an asset that eliminates client doubt, establishes trust instantly, and validates your premium pricing.

This is your visual due diligence. When you commit to Branding Photography, you’re showing the world-and your competitors-that you’re playing at the highest level.
