Headhots Tips
Tips for Headshots
Choose Neutral Colours: Opt for tops in solid, neutral colors like black, white, gray, or navy. These colors help keep the focus on your face and expression.
Fit Matters: Wear clothes that fit well; not too tight and not too loose. Properly fitted clothing will look best on camera and enhance your body's shape.
Minimalist Style: Keep your outfit simple. Avoid loud patterns and large logos that can distract from your face.
Natural Makeup: Aim for a natural makeup look that enhances your features without making it seem overdone. Light foundation, a touch of blush, and subtle lip colour can improve your on-camera appearance.
Well-Groomed Appearance: Ensure your hair is neat and styled simply. If you have long hair, consider wearing it pulled back from your face to highlight your features.
Good Posture: Stand or sit straight with your shoulders back. Good posture conveys confidence and helps you look your best.
Relaxed Expression: Practice a relaxed, natural smile or a serious expression that doesn’t look too stiff. Aim for approachability in your demeanor.
Eye Contact with the Camera: Direct eye contact can convey confidence and establish a connection with the viewer. Ensure your eyes are open and alert.
Check Your Glasses: If you wear glasses, check that there are no reflections obscuring your eyes. Anti-reflective coatings are best for photo shoots.
Rest Well Before the Shoot: A good night’s sleep helps you look refreshed and vibrant. Tired eyes and lackluster skin won’t do well under the camera.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
Ignoring the Fit of Clothes: Wearing ill-fitting clothes that are too loose or too tight can be unflattering in photographs.
Overdoing Makeup: Applying too much makeup can look unnatural and harsh under studio lighting.
Wearing Distracting Jewelry: Large, shiny, or noisy jewelry can take the focus away from your face.
Choosing Trendy Over Timeless: Opting for very trendy outfits can date your headshot. Classic styles usually last longer.
Forgetting to Iron Clothes: Wrinkled clothes look unprofessional and sloppy in photos.
Too Much Hair Product: Avoid using too much hair gel or spray that can make your hair look greasy or stiff.
Poor Posture: Slouching or awkward poses can make you appear unprofessional.
Not Communicating with the Photographer: Not discussing what you want with your photographer can result in photos that don’t meet your expectations.
Ignoring the Photographer’s Directions: The photographer might suggest adjustments in posture, expression, or position for optimal results, so it’s important to listen.
Forgetting to Relax: Being too tense can show in your face and body language. Try to relax and be yourself in front of the camera.
