Older Style Dallas Business Headshot |
As a Dallas, TX headshot photographer, I get many kinds of photography requests, for many styles and industries where professionals need to look right to their respective audiences. To keep this short, our first example is common for an older style of headshots. It is subjective, so there is not just one right or wrong choice, but the trend is for a lighter headshot, more open and airy.
This headshot with the blue background shows an older style. It is more reserved, more formal, more conservative. The headshot with the light grey background is more contemporary. It has a lighter feeling, clean, crisp with nothing to hide. This visually communicates authenticity and signals to the viewer that you are welcoming. It is safe to reach out and do business with you, knowing you straightforward - a person of your work.
Different industries can lean towards one or the other appearance. And we're just talking about studio headshots here, not outdoor or on-location photoshoots. A more serious industry, like litigation attorney or security, might benefit from the heavier and more formal look. While a public-facing professional businessperson might want to emphasize being welcoming and approachable.
Contemporary Style Headshot |
If you are in sales, for example, you want a headshot that people feel they can connect with and agree with. A photo that makes them feel like saying YES to you. Likewise, with real estate (commercial or residential), as an agent, you want to emphasize how approachable you are.
In either style of headshot, I deliver the pose needs to be just right, being careful to not make the next look too thick. You want the jawline to be distinct as well.
