Part 2 - Getting a Natural Looking Headshot. In our previous video, we’ve established what angles are good for Vas. Now, let’s talk about what makes your headshot more natural looking - your photographer Your photographer should be good enough to do this: - the way your he/she directs you and gives you feedback - why he/she tells you to do certain things with your face or body - shows you the results of why your photographer tells you to do certain things. So, remember, when you are looking for a photographer for your next headshot photo shoot, other than the fees, look and research on the skillsets + experiences your photographer has in order to make his/her clients look amazing.

📸 Choosing your photographer 📸 With so many photographers out there, how do you find the right one for you? We tend to think that we would prefer to pay as little as possible, but in photography or any other artistic fields, it might not the best idea… Here are some key points to consider before booking: ✨ Editing Style: Make sure their editing style matches your vision. Do you prefer bright and airy, moody, or classic? Also, do they take posed pictures, or more candid ones? Do they use storytelling? Are they creative with their angles? 💖 Shared Values: Do they share your values and therefore will be able to understand your story? Whether it’s cultural traditions, religion, or anything close to your heart, feeling comfortable with your photographer is essential. 🎁 Extra Offerings: What extras do they offer? Are they the kind to just do your pictures and never hear from you again, or are they trying to get to know you, build connections and pour their heart into their work? 🌟 Client Feedback: Check out reviews and testimonials. What do previous clients say about their experience? When you read those reviews, does it appeal to you? Choosing a photographer is about finding someone who not only captures moments but also resonates with your personal style, needs and values. Take your time, consider these points, and find the perfect match for your special moments 📷 #praguephotographer #photographytips #Prague

Picking the right photographer is crucial, especially when it's your brand on the line. It's not just about finding someone who can take a good shot—it’s about finding someone who gets your brand. Here’s the checklist: ✅ Does the photographer understand your industry? ✅Can they adapt to your specific needs? ✅Do they have a style that complements your brand? Most importantly, can they tell your story through their lens? Communication is key. You want a photographer who listens, understands, and contributes creatively to your vision. Experience counts, but so does enthusiasm and a willingness to collaborate closely with your team. Think we might be a fit? Let’s talk. I’m here to ensure your visuals are nothing short of perfect. #photography #brandphotography #brandidentity

There are famous pro photographers who have already spent a lot of time, effort & money to get ahead. They managed to make a name for themselves. The solution though might be to carve out a niche within your niche, where you can become the best out there when people try to work with YOU specifically. The ideal scenario (which can be reached through years of hard work) is to become a one-person niche, the “go-to” photographer for a specific type of client. When you’re narrowly positioned, people start seeing you as the expert in your field. Potential clients start saying “We want to do this. Get me [your name here]!”, because you’re the photographer that’s really well-known for that type of work. Maybe not worldwide (at first), but at least in your local area. Not only do clients trust you more because they see you as the expert. They also feel like taking a lower risk with you, than going with a generalist. In what niche would you like to become the “go-to” world-renowned photographer? And more importantly, how do you plan on getting there?

Why Choose Me as Your Photographer? It's Not What You Think! Because you love my style? Because you vibe with the things I say and do? Because of my reputation and the oodles of recommendations from happy customers? No, silly! Because of my good looks, of course?! I mean - just look at this guy 😍 There are other photographers, I suppose, like Steve Wright who took this photo. And he's pretty easy on the eye too (from certain angles). But if being easy on the eye isn't enough to sway you then, putting the above aside, you should book the photographer you feel most connected to. Because that connection will show in the portraits that we'll make together. Without that connection, you're just getting snapshots. And you and your business deserve more than that! If you want more than snapshots and/or you want to be seen around town with this guy - give me a shout. And if you'd just like this photo for your bedside table - DM for print orders! #ImTooSexy #PersonalBrandPhotography #Connection

Monday Work Insight: "How Far in Advance Should I Book a Photographer? One of the most common questions we get from clients is, "How far in advance should I book a photographer? The answer depends on the type of event and the season. For weddings, large events, or high-demand seasons (like holidays), we recommend booking 6-12 months in advance. This ensures you get your preferred photographer, especially if they are in high demand. For smaller events or portraits, 3-6 months is typically sufficient. But why so early? Great photographers are artists who craft your memories into timeless visuals. Securing them early allows them to plan, scout locations, and capture your vision perfectly. At Boopho, we make this process easy by connecting you with talented photographers who match your style and needs. Whether it's a wedding, a birthday, or a business shoot, we've got you covered. So, if you have a special event coming up, don't wait!

It's a mistake to think that AI-generated photos are the easiest way to update a headshot. While it might seem simple to you, it won't be as easy for your clients to recognise you. I suspect people often wonder why others choose to use a "cartoon" version of themselves in a photo. Well, at least I often wonder why on Earth people hide behind generated images and use them in a professional setting. Of course, updating a headshot the traditional way, such as going to a photographer, does take time and effort. However, with remote photoshoots, it's now much easier to get a real photo, rather than a generated one. Make it easy for your clients to see what you truly look like with a real image, without leaving them to wonder why you chose to generate your portrait. Here is a behind the scenes of a shoot we had with Marina Varzar to celebrate everyone who chooses the real photos over AI-generated, because you deserve to be seen! __ Book a remote shoot via the link below and let's get your photo updated: https://lnkd.in/ettg9ci6 #womaninbusiness #personalbrandingphotography #personalbranding #londonphotographer #portraitphotography #morethanajob #smallbusinesstips   #businessphoto

5 BIGGEST MISTAKES COMPANIES OFTEN MAKE WHEN HIRING A HEADSHOT PHOTOGRAPHER:⁠ ⁠ #️⃣1️⃣ LOOKING AT THE PRICE ONLY⁠ ⁠ There is a reason why some photographer are cheaper than others. You will definitely be getting LESS if you’re paying less, and that tends to be consistent across the board in life in general. Less prep, less posing knowledge, little or no retouching (or even worse, bad retouching), longer delivery times, unorganized files, and more work for your team. There are some things that aren’t worth saving money on. It’s not worth the headache or the time that will potentially have to be spent on trying to rectify a bad process, lack of foresight, or skill on the photographer’s part. ⁠ ⁠ I hear way too often that companies bring in a photographer and go through all the work only to never actually use the images because so many people simply hate their headshot. This isn’t rare or uncommon. There are so many shoddy headshot photographers out there due to lack of required accreditation and the absolute ease and cheapness of starting a photography business that it’s imperative to know the difference between hiring a professional and a potential hobbyist. We all start somewhere, but for companies who need professional representation online, this isn’t an area where you should skimp to save a few dollars.⁠ ⁠ #connecticut #ctphotographer #ct #newenglandphotographer #ctfamilyphotographer #203 #fairfieldcounty #fairfieldcountyct⁠ #headshots #headshot #headshotphotography #headshotphotographers #headshotphotographer #professionalheadshots #professionalportraits #corporateheadshots #ctheadshotphotographer #ctheadshots #nycheadshotphotographer #ctheadshot #brandingphotographer

Let's be real, not everybody reading this is going to see me as their ideal photographer! 📸 I'm probably not for you if... 🙅🏼♀️ You want your photography as cheaply as possible I've been in this industry for 10 years. If I keep charging bottom-of-the-barrel rates, photographers less experienced than me will struggle to thrive. I support clients for three months at a time, minimum; I’m okay with not being cheap. 🙅🏼♀️ Speed is of the essence to you While I do offer a speedy edits add-on, I can't accelerate the pre-production process. I want to deeply understand your brand, so that your brand photography is as effective as possible. If you want to skip this step, I’m not the photographer you are looking for. 🙅🏼♀️ You want a safe, commercial vibe to your images As Studio Gently, I want your brand images to stand out! My images are atmospheric, creative, and dripping with personality. If you are looking for safe and similar to what's been done before, I'm not for you.
