A professional headshot is more than just a photo—it’s a reflection of your confidence, personality, and professionalism. It's your presentation to the business world.  To make the most of your unlimited headshot session, preparation is key. Here are expert tips on clothing selection, skincare, and energy preparation to ensure you look and feel your best in front of the camera.

1. Opt for Classic, Timeless Styles
   Avoid trendy patterns or flashy prints that might not age well. Solid colors, subtle textures, and classic silhouettes create a polished and professional look.

2. Choose Colors That Complement Your Skin Tone
   Jewel tones (deep blue, emerald green, rich burgundy) flatter most skin tones, while neutrals (gray, navy, black, and white) provide a sophisticated and timeless appeal.

3. Avoid Distracting Patterns and Logos
   Stripes, large logos, and busy patterns can draw attention away from your face. Stick to simple, solid colors that enhance your features.

4. Bring Multiple Outfit Options
   Since this is an unlimited session, take advantage of wardrobe changes! Bring a mix of business formal, business casual, and even a polished casual look to get a variety of images.  Think of the different seasons, it might be summer when we shoot but bring a jacket, a sweater, a long sleeved Henley.  You can always change your photo out periodically during the year.  

5. Layering Adds Depth
   A blazer, cardigan, or structured jacket can add dimension to your photos and create a more versatile look.

6. Consider Your Industry and Purpose
   Think about where you’ll use these headshots. Corporate professionals may prefer a suit, while creatives might go for a more relaxed yet professional look.

1. Hydrate for Healthy Skin
   Start drinking plenty of water at least two to three days before your session to keep your skin looking fresh and radiant.

2. Moisturize and Prep Your Skin
   Use a gentle exfoliator a day or two before your session and apply a hydrating moisturizer to create a smooth, even texture.

3. Minimize Shine with Oil-Control Products
   If you have oily skin, use an oil-free primer or blotting papers to reduce excess shine under studio lighting.

4. Groom Facial Hair
   Men should trim or shave the morning of the shoot for a clean look. If you prefer a beard, make sure it’s neatly groomed. Women may want to shape their brows for a polished appearance.

5. Keep Makeup Natural and Professional
   A light application of foundation, concealer, and a neutral lip color works best. Avoid heavy contouring, shimmer, or overly bold lip shades.

6. Get Plenty of Rest the Night Before
   Dark circles and puffiness are hard to hide. A full night’s sleep ensures you look refreshed and energized.

1. Get in a Positive Headspace
   Take a few moments before your session to breathe deeply and relax. Visualize yourself looking confident and feeling great in front of the camera.

2. Bring Music That Pumps You Up
   Listening to your favorite upbeat music can help you shake off nerves and bring out your natural charisma.

3. Stretch and Loosen Up
   A quick stretch or light movement can help release tension and keep your posture looking natural in your photos.

4. Practice Your Expressions
   Spend a few minutes in the mirror testing out different smiles and expressions. This helps you feel more comfortable when the camera starts clicking.

5. Have Fun with It!
   The best photos come from natural, relaxed moments. Your unlimited session gives you the freedom to explore different poses, angles, and outfits—so enjoy the process and let your personality shine!

Your headshot session is an investment in your personal and professional brand. With thoughtful outfit choices, a solid skincare routine, and the right energy, you’ll walk away with stunning images that truly represent the best version of you.
