what makes a great
Corporate Headshot?
The Face of Professional Success
A great coorporate headshot
the terms “headshot” and “portrait”
it communicates who you are before you even speak. Whether it’s for LinkedIn, your company’s website, or a press release, your headshot plays a critical role in your professional identity.
Wardrobe matters, too. Classic, professional clothing in solid colors works best – nothing too trendy or distracting. If you’re unsure what to wear, think about your industry and audience. Finance executives and tech founders may need very different vibes, and a seasoned photographer like Liane Morgan can help you strike the perfect balance.
The best corporate headshots are clean, well-lit, and composed to keep the focus on your expression. Backgrounds are usually simple and unobtrusive –
often in neutral tones – to keep the viewer’s attention on you. But it’s not just about the technical setup. Confidence, approachability, and authenticity are the real stars of the show. A relaxed posture and a genuine expression can go a long way in building trust with viewers.
Ultimately, a great headshot feels like you – but elevated. It should look current, align with your
brand, and leave a lasting impression.
