What makes a business headshot... crisp... poised... and even... captivating? Is it the lighting? The pose? The expression? The hair and wardrobe?
At our Dallas business portrait studio, our headshots bring it all together. And the result is magical! OK, it's not really "magical"; but it is
systematically great. Yes, we have a proven system for showing you at your BEST.
Let's start with the
pose: being at a bit of an angle is MUCH more insteresting to the human eye/brain than simply standing there flat facing the camera.
Next the
wardrobe: don't let it be cluttered. Earrings are simple and fairly small. Don't wear too many layers. This example above is not the perfect headshot and perfect wardtobe, but it WORKS, and more specifically, it works for the audience it is designed to appeal to. An accident injury attorney needs a different "look" than a doctor, than a real estate agent, than a salespreson, than a CEO.
Now the lighting and the expression in my photo are DIRECT - there is nothing being hidden or faked. The lighting does not put one side of the face in myserious shadows (like you see in TV drama shows, where the character might be hiding some secrty moivations, notice this the next time you watch a drama or a crime show). The eyes are direct as well - making a CONNECTION with the viewer. This helps the iewere want to make a connection with you in return - a business connection that is in your corporate portrait.
These and other nuanced details and painstaking photo retouching all make the most of expression, wardrobe, lighting and pose to make a business headshot that gets our signature "strong positive response."
