STYLING GUIDELINES

Keep it classic and professional
Opt for business or business-casual attire that reflects your role and aligns with your company’s professional brand. Select classic over trendy styles to ensure your headshot isn’t quickly outdated.

Stick to solid colors or subtle patterns
Neutral tones like navy, black, gray, cream, or soft blues photograph beautifully. Avoid busy patterns, logos, or overly bright colors, as they can be distracting on camera.

Choose flattering, well-fitted pieces
Blazers, structured tops, dresses, or button-down shirts work especially well. Layers (like a blazer or cardigan) can add dimension and versatility to your look.

Keep accessories simple
Minimal jewelry and clean, understated accessories help keep the focus on you.

Grooming matters
Style your hair as you normally would for work. For makeup, a natural, polished look tends to photograph best.

Bring options if you can
If time allows, feel free to bring a second outfit—this gives us flexibility and ensures you have a look you love.

The goal is for your headshot to feel authentic, approachable, and professional—something you’ll be proud to use across LinkedIn, email signatures, and marketing materials.
