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!!

Ending June like a CEO—on a rooftop, taking a br Ending June like a CEO—on a rooftop, taking a breath, reflecting on how far we’ve come this month.

This is your reminder:
 ✅ You built momentum.
 ✅ You stayed committed.
 ✅ You kept showing up, even when it felt messy.

Now let’s carry that energy forward. July, we’re coming for you—with fresh strategy, aligned content, and renewed clarity. You in?

School’s out, and boss mode just shifted into a new gear.

Here’s to two months of juggling chaos and chasing goals—with new routines, fewer boundaries, and a whole lot of grace.

If your summer looks like laptop in one hand, sunscreen in the other—same.

Running a business doesn’t stop, it just adapts. Who else is right here with me?

We recently captured some incredible branding content to help her show up online in a way that feels clear, polished, and real. Because let’s face it—when you’re navigating big financial decisions, you want someone who not only knows their stuff, but feels trustworthy the moment you land on their page.

This is exactly what showing up with intention looks like.

Can’t wait to share more from this session soon!
First day of summer ☀️ And if you’re a busin First day of summer ☀️
And if you’re a business owner, you already know this season is more than sunshine and patio breaks—it’s a fresh opportunity to show up.

Summer is the perfect time to lean into visibility, refresh your content, and finally stop relying on that one photo you’ve been reusing since 2021 (you know the one).

Let this be your reminder: your business doesn’t take the season off—and neither should your brand presence.

Let’s make this your season to shine—intentionally.
