This month: 5 Tips to a Successful Professional Headshot Session

At least every month I’ll be posting a video clip with useful information for your professional business headshot session, corporate photos or commercial photography needs. These will range from tips to best practices to what to look for when shopping the competition (not that I’m recommending this of course, but I understand!).

See the video: https://vimeo.com/83710961

Tip #1 – Get Your Outfit Ready the Night Before – You know what looks good, but in a rush (i.e. the morning of) sometimes you’ll forget something or not be thinking straight. Get your outfit prepped and good to go for your professional headshot session the next day!

Tip #2 – Enjoy Yourself – Gotta have fun! ‘Nuff said. It’s not pulling teeth but sometimes is approached this way so keep in mind it will go by quickly.

Tip #3 – Trust Your Photographer – Julian has been a trained photographer for over a dozen years and has photographed thousands of people and dozens of businesses. Trust that he can deliver and that working with you will produce the high quality image you’re looking for.

Tip #4 – Keep It Simple – The simpler the better! Keep outfits simple, including prints, accessories, and hair.

Tip #5 – Be At Your Best! – So many of us forget to give ourselves enough rest, to prep the night before, to bring the necessary hair/makeup products with us, etc, that contribute to not looking your very best. I like to make my clients look really good and I hope you are at your Very Best!

Following these tips will lead to a much more successful business headshot session for you and/or your company when updating your portraits. It’s critical to take this seriously since this is your visual identity and brand. Think to yourself…how often do you actually have a new professional headshot session done?

Lifestyle professional headshots > Alliant Benefits in Seattle

by admin JMon November 26, 2013 in Headshot Sessions | Seattle - Bellevue - Tacoma, My Blog, Professional Business Headshots tagged , , , , , , , , ,

Casual. Approachable. Lifestyle. Headshots.

These were the three words I remember thinking when talking with my client at their Seattle offices for their new headshots look for their company.

Business lifestyle headshots by Julian Michael Seattle

“Can you make our people look like ‘this’,” said Alliant’s West Coast Marketing Director to me in a preliminary meeting for their new corporate headshots. She and her creative team lead were showing me their favorite samples of lifestyle-like portraits from a Google and Pinterest search. What I remember most is how similar the style was to how I like to photograph my high school pictures clientele (i.e. very relaxed, warm, fun), always completed outdoors. When they posed the question to me I provided an exciting ‘thumbs up’ that I could deliver upon their request!

Over the following month I worked on-site at their downtown Seattle offices on three occasions to photograph nearly 50 of their staff, administration and executives, including their CEO, who was the inspiration behind this fresh style of business portraits. Each professional was photographed in at least two different poses, standing and sitting with some variety in background at my discretion. All of their new headshots were completed around a large city block radius outdoors with Seattle fall lighting and my discretion of background. What a great time working with Alliant!

Time to Update Your Business’ Headshots? Bellevue Headshots Photographer

So many times I receive calls from companies that have some very outdated business headshots or poor quality professional headshots and are looking for something fresh and clean to present their visual brand. Some companies prefer a more traditional headshot portrait photography look, which Julian can deliver with absolute top grade quality as well. Whatever your business portrait photographer needs Julian can deliver on-time, with ease and everyone might even have fun!

Four Headshot Photography Essentials to Improve Your Portrait Session

  1. Wardrobe: Think about your wardrobe choice at least the day before your session. People tend to make better decisions about their headshot portrait sessions when they do it in advance.
  2. Hair: Get your hair styled the day or two before your photography appointment so you have your best look ready to go. Some women even have their hair cut and styled the morning of their headshot portrait session to take full advantage of this.
  3. Be natural: Most people are good smilers in their professional headshot sessions, however some of us need a little coaching in this department. Help yourself have a better business portrait session by practicing in the mirror or ask a friend or spouse to share what your best natural smile looks like and teach yourself how to create this smile effortlessly.
  4. Day-of styling: Although we’re getting our business portrait during the day. Sometimes we get busy, go outside in the rain or wind, and our hair goes nuts or we pick up lint, wrinkles, etc. Think about wearing a different shirt or sportcoat for your session, about bringing styling products with you to your headshot session, and about styling yourself a few minutes before your appointment.

Bellevue Professional Headshots Fun with Denise and Her Team

This is now the third time I’ve had the pleasure of working with Denise and what an organized group they certainly are! Boasting her new 2013 updated staff members and look, Denise was excited to get new headshots photography up onto her website. Simplify With Denise serves the greater Seattle and Bellevue markets for business, professional and corporate organizing, sometimes working 1-on-1 or with groups.

Three Reasons to Have a Professional Headshot | Seattle Corporate Headshots Photographer

by admin JMon October 14, 2012 in Headshot Sessions | Seattle - Bellevue - Tacoma, My Blog tagged , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

Three Reasons it’s Important to Have a Professional Headshot for Business That You Love

1) You’ll be happier to look at your online profile with a better professional business headshot taken of you. Confidence is amazing and it starts with you and your online you these days. So many times I’m talking with someone and they say to me, “I never look good in pictures so I don’t share this with anyone.” When in fact, today is ALL about being personal and showing yourself!

seattle professional headshots corporate bellevue business photography everett

2) Other professional business people will look at your headshot and base an opinion about you solely on your projected image (i.e. your professional headshot!) Although we’d like to think all business professionals will read your profile and then make a judgment, many of them will base their opinion on visuals and many times it’s completely intrinsic. Having an updated headshot that shows your best side and best foot forward with great lighting with an authentic smile goes a LONG WAY!!

seattle professional headshots corporate executive photography bellevue

3) You’re not getting any younger. In all honesty, it’s always funny to meet someone in person and they look like their online business profile’s older self! How many times have you met someone after seeing their professional business signature or LinkedIn profile then they look totally different in person. Happens so frequently it’s amazing. Don’t be one of these people and make sure to update your profile every two years or so.
