THE MODERN PROFESSIONAL HEADSHOT
STUDIO HEADSHOTS : POLISHED HI KEY WHITE, BLACK, AND COOL OR WARM OR GREY
The #1 reason to get a Studio headshot is that you really can’t get that professional polished look any other way. A clean, non-distracting background like white or gray will go with everything and looks right at home on LinkedIn or Facebook. It shows that you care enough to invest real money into appearing professional online, which will set you apart from all the cell phone headshots out there. A Studio is open and available when it’s convenient for you. There’s no waiting for the best light, rescheduling because of heat, or worrying about wind-blown hair. In my private home studio or your office with my on-site option, you can feel relaxed and at ease without a passerby watching. Especially when I pose you to compliment your body shape which often requires leaning, arm positions, putting a leg up on a box or stool, or sitting a certain way- being relaxed is so important. And don't worry, I will direct you in an easy-going comfortable way using my experience so you don't have to worry about what to do with your hands among other things!
WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A HEADSHOT AND A BRANDING HEADSHOT?
MODERN HEADSHOTS
My professional headshot style is the Modern Headshot which is a head and shoulders business portrait with clean simple lines and a bright face forward aesthetic. The background and clothing should not detract from the focus- you! So I suggest neutral colors and pose you and direct your headshot in a way that takes the worry and guess work off your shoulders. You definetly do not need to worry about what you will do with your hands! The result is a high end polished and professional headshot establishes credibility and instills trust in your audience. When clients, colleagues, or potential employers see a professional headshot, it signals that you take your work seriously and are dedicated to presenting yourself in the best possible light. It creates an immediate sense of professionalism, competence, and reliability. These headshots can be taken in my studio space or on-site at your workspace.
BRANDING HEADSHOTS
Your personal brand is what sets you apart from others in your field. These headshots can taken in the comfort of your work environment- whatever that looks like from a home office, to a shared studio space, to a corporate building or garden. By carefully selecting the location, props, and attire that align with your brand and industry, you can craft a headshot that reflects your individuality and makes a memorable impression. Where you do your work is the best place to illustrate to a client what you will be doing for them, however because in most cases you ARE your brand and brand recognition is everything, a branding headshot can look like a 3/4 or full length professional, yet more relaxed business portrait too. With a branding headshot by a trusted and experienced photographer like myself, Anjeanette Photography Phoenix Headshot Pro, your headshot can make a significant impact on how you are perceived by others. And as an on-site headshot provider, it is even convenient for your business as well.
Making a Positive First Impression matters more than ever. A well-crafted headshot is often the first point of contact between you and your audience. It serves as a visual representation of your personal brand, reflecting your values, expertise, and personality. A professional headshot conveys that you are approachable, friendly, and someone others feel safe starting a business relationship with. An on-site headshot provides an opportunity to showcase your unique identity and professional style.
Today your professional image is not limited to physical interactions. Your headshot will be displayed on various online platforms such as LinkedIn, zoom meetings, company websites, and social media profiles. Having a consistent and high-quality headshot across these platforms ensures a cohesive and professional online presence, reinforcing your personal brand and strengthening your credibility.
Likewise, a well-crafted headshot has the power to establish a personal connection with your audience. When people see a genuine and approachable image, it creates a sense of familiarity and trust. This can lead to increased engagement, networking opportunities, and ultimately, business growth. A professional headshot helps you connect with your audience on a deeper level and
