Consider These Factors for Your Photoshoot!

Consider These Factors for Your Photoshoot!

We know the importance of having a current, professionally shot business portrait of headshot particulary as Linkedin is approaching one billion subscribers. I thought I would bullet point a few things that are important to consider when thinking about booking your photo session.

• Get your photograph taken by an experienced, Certified Professional Photographer. When you consider the small investment for a great profile photo and the number of eyes that will see your picture, why risk using a poor quality photo.

• Make sure that your Certified Pro Photographer understands various lighting patterns and has studio and portrait experience.

• Speak with the photographer before the appointment day - the one that's going to be actually be photographing you - share your concerns, your objectives and ask their advice on how to acheive your headshot goals.

• Tell your prospective photographer about your audience and ask what might be best to wear for optimal positioning.

That's all folks, if you need any advice just drop me a message!
