Elevate Your Company’s Image with Professional Employee Headshots
Dubbed “the new handshake,” professional headshots are now the first introduction to you, your business and your personal brand—shouldn’t that intro be the best it can be? With 93% of HR professionals and recruiters tapping into LinkedIn to find quality candidates, a great corporate headshot is critical for making a good first impression. These business headshots focus on showcasing the subject’s professionalism, friendliness, and competence, helping you build an awesome personal brand that helps you get hired faster, improves your sales numbers, or attracts investors to your company.

Refined Female Professional Headshots
Doing it right matters—a refined female professional headshot can help you attract the right clients or get that job interview you’ve been after. For women, this is particularly true as the way we present ourselves in professional settings can have a significant impact on our career success. It is essential to have a headshot that accurately reflects our professionalism and competence, ensuring your headshot makes the right impression and allows your personality to shine through.
Wardrobe and Visual Presentation
The clothes you wear play a critical role in how you will ultimately look in your female professional headshots. Your attire should reflect your profession or the type of position you are going after. Consider the following guidelines for a powerful visual presentation:
- Color Selection: When using a suit or jacket, choose solid darker colors—blacks, blues, grays, purples, or greens. Under it, wear a light or bright solid blouse or shell. Avoid flesh tones such as brown or peach, as they will blend with and wash out your skin.
- Clothing Fit: All clothing should be well-fitted and tailored. Using padded shoulders for a clean look produces a constructed shoulder-line and a more flattering image.
- Fabric Choices: Avoid wearing clothing with patterns—they produce a moiré pattern (zig-zag lines) in digital cameras. It is best to choose solid fabrics and ensure all clothing is well pressed.
- Professional Details: Avoid wearing low-cut tops and make sure bra straps are not showing. Long sleeves generally look good in corporate portrait photographs.
Preparing for Your Headshot Session
There are three keys to preparing for your headshot ahead of time. First, if possible, try to get some sleep, exercise, and sunshine in the weeks before your session to ensure the photos look as natural as possible. Second, make sure to briefly wear your desired clothing a couple days before your session to ensure everything fits properly. Third, take a look at some prior photos of yourself and show those you like to your photographer to help find a flattering angle.
Posing and Background Selection
No need to go crazy on your poses; we tend to focus on minimalist poses to showcase your professionalism. At the beginning of your session, you should warm up with simple and straightforward poses, eventually working toward some arms-crossed headshots. For conservative industries like law and finance, we recommend neutral backdrops based in white, gray or black to convey reliability and consistency. If you work in creative industries, tech, or non-profits, feel free to pick a colored studio backdrop to give your photos a bit more “pop.”
