The easiest way to prepare for a professional headshot is to decide where the photo will appear, bring two well-fitting outfits, and tell your photographer what you want the image to convey. Kirstin Boncher Creative photographs professionals in its Boca Raton studio and on location.
What should you wear for a professional headshot?
Bring one outfit that reflects how you normally meet clients and a second that gives you a different level of formality. Try a jacket both on and off, and check how collars and lapels sit while seated. Solid colors are a useful starting point because fine patterns can distract in a small profile crop. Bring glasses or jewelry you wear regularly so your photograph still looks like you.
Should you choose the studio or an on-location session?
A studio gives you a controlled background for LinkedIn, press biographies, and team directories. An office setting can add context to a founder portrait. If your team is being photographed at a Boca Raton office, identify a room where people can rotate through without interrupting their work and discuss space and access before shoot day.
Which crops should you plan for?
A LinkedIn profile photo needs to read clearly in a circle. A company biography may need a vertical frame, and a website banner may need extra room for text. Bring sample layouts to the session. Once your image is ready, see LinkedIn’s profile photo instructions.
