These are your basic close-cropped photos that show your face, shoulders, and maybe a touch of your upper body. Headshots are perfect for things like your company website bio, social media profiles, job applications, or association memberships. A good headshot shows your personality while looking nice and polished.

For headshot prep, make sure to wear something in a solid color that complements your complexion. Get a good haircut/style beforehand and groom facial hair. Little touches of makeup can reduce shine or soften lines. And remember to SMILE! Looking friendly and approachable is key for headshots.
