SESSIONS

WHAT IS INCLUDED IN A HEADSHOT SESSION

  • Great for individuals or groups.
  • Pose coaching + PowerPoint presentation of examples to follow.
  • Possibility of changing outfits to create different looks.
  • Grey background by default, white is also available.
  • See the pictures taken in real-time.
  • The client chooses the pictures to be retouched/deliverered at the end of the session.

ABOUT THE SESSION

We take pictures, study them, and discuss them together in real-time. Analyzing the shots helps us determine whether or not they perfectly represent your personality. In doing so, we gradually adjust the style of the photoshoot.

At the end of the session, we take stock of the images, and you select the ones you want to keep according to your preferences.

OUTFITS

The key to successful headshot photography is to keep jewelry to a minimum. Small earrings and simple necklaces work best. Voluminous jewelry and hoop-style curls draw too much attention.

Regarding your shirts/tops: Avoid overloaded patterns and favor dark or vivid colors.

If you wear eye-glasses and have more than one pair, please bring them to check their level of glare.

If you wear contact lenses, please take them off during the session.

EXTENDED SESSION: 90MINS WITH OUTFIT CHANGES

Don’t hesitate to bring a diverse range of clothing. In most cases, 5-7 outfits are sufficient. Rule number 1: you must love what you wear! If you don’t feel comfortable in an outfit, don’t bring it.

Do you have doubts about a garment? Bring it. Playing on layers is fantastic for an interesting look. You don’t have to dress to the current season. Everything can work: t-shirts, tank tops, sweaters, light jackets … Have fun!

HAIR AND MAKEUP

Women’s makeup:

Keep in mind that a headshot is a tight portrait, which amplifies your makeup.

Please opt for corrective makeup only and keep colors around your eyes to a minimum. If you are unsure of your mascara‘s quality, we recommend that you do not use it.

Female hairstyle:

We ask that you come with your hair already styled the way you want it to appear. Your hairstyle should be as close as possible to your perfect appearance. Of course, our makeup artist will be present, if requested, to make sure everything is ready for the shoot. We’ll discuss what you’d like to do with it and establish a protocol at the start of filming.

Corrections for men:

Correction rework is recommended but not required. A lip balm is your best friend, especially during cold periods.

Best time to shave or trime your beard is right before the session.
