Headshots are an essential part of building your personal brand. But why not make fun, and maybe spicy?! There are a few ways to make your headshots more personal and unique. Personalizing your creative headshots can be soooo fun and a good way to ensure that you are showing off the best YOU!
When it’s time to update your headshots, one of the first things you are probably thinking of is your overall personal and brand vibe! Then comes the time to decide on the outfit! What fits with your brand voice and strategy? What message are you trying to convey?! Something flirty and fun, some professional and chic, something playful and sophisticated?! Your outfit should be representative of your personal style, but also in line with your brand’s overall image. Your outfit can be as simple as a blazer, or a simple bodysuit?! Make your outfit YOU!!
Now to decide where to take your creative headshots! You can opt for something adventurous and fun like an open field, or my boudoir studio! The spotlight adds that WOW factor and really shines all the attention on you! We can bring in some studio props like a chair, stool, or wooden box. Whatever you decide, rock it with CONFIDENCE!
Last but not least, don’t forget that something special and personal. If you’re a photographer, include your camera as a prop in your photos or maybe your notebook and pen, if you write a lot. Whatever you decide, make it something that fits your brand, style, and aesthetic.
