What Is Valued More in the Professional World?

Warmth (trustworthiness) or Competence (respect)?

If you answered competence, think again.

#1 – Enlist a Support Team

A stylist can help you determine your most flattering look and plan the photo shoot effectively. They’ll also review your wardrobe to understand your personal style and may provide designer clothes or jewelry to complete your look.

#2 – Make It Easy on Yourself

Schedule a comprehensive photo shoot including headshots, full-body shots, and even family photos. You never know when interviewers or networking opportunities will require a variety of images. Plus, these photos enhance your social media presence.

#3 – Perfecting Your Headshots

Here are some tips to get the best results:

  • Hire a makeup artist and a professional photographer.

  • Use a professional stylist to select wardrobe and accessories.

  • Choose two different looks; avoid solid black or white outfits.

  • Budget $500–$1,000 for the complete session and styling.

  • Ensure you receive both high-resolution .jpeg and .tiff files for versatile use in print and online.

In conclusion, investing in professional headshots goes beyond just looking good—it’s about presenting warmth and trustworthiness that resonate with others. By assembling the right team and preparing thoughtfully, you create images that open doors and leave a lasting, positive impression in the professional world.
