One of my favourite tricks for a high end headshot photo is to match your wardrobe with the background.

For these team headshots, I photographed each team member on a grey background and changed the background colour in photoshop.

New Headshots for the headshot Photographer!

Everybody needs Headshot photos that they love, including the headshot Photographer

It’s been a while since I have had Headshots that I felt really represented who I am at that place in life.

I got new glasses and this is my current hairstyle and my facial hair is the correct length.

I have a ton of Headshots of myself that I really do love but the details are all different. I have a different hairstyle or a different pair of glasses or my facial hair is longer than preferred or my wardrobe is not how I want it to be.

I’m a couple of headshot wardrobe, my favourite shirt is a white button up similar to these two shirts but white. However, for the Headshots, the white shirt through too much attention away from my face and so although it’s my favourite shirt, it wasn’t the best shirt for my Headshots.

What shot is your favourite and why?

Headshot photography is all about your…. Head.

I know that sounds really shocking but it’s true! Your headshot photos help people recognize who you are.

It is easy to overdo it with jewellery and wardrobe, and the result is a headshot photo that is a little bit cluttered.

We don’t want anything distracting people from your face.

You obviously wanna feel confident and important so I do recommend clothes that make you feel great.

I believe it is Coco Chanel, who said before you leave the house take one thing off.

And that’s exactly it, sometimes when we want to look our best, we put too many things on, and it can be distracting.

If you must, wear one statement piece.

If you have a signature look, then you should absolutely wear that signature. Look for your headshot Photography.

Here are some examples of people who did not follow my headshot photography tips, and it made the photo better.

One lady wore a neon pink blazer and one of my tips is where muted colours for your headshot photos. That neon blazer is her signature look. Two years later, I was at a networking event in Prince George, and I saw her from across the room and instantly knew it was her because it was her signature neon, pink blazer. Very smart move on her part.

Another one of my favourite clients Narges Nirumvala✨(Official) chooses to embrace her natural hair that has a lot of volume. She insists on doing her own hair and makeup, and that is her signature look. I can spot her from a mile away at any crowded event. Her hair is her brand and that is a genius move.

My headshot photography tips are just suggestions and my only goal is that you have a headshot photo that moves your career in the right direction.

This wardrobe tip could be the number one tip I have for you to love your Headshots.

People often book their headshot session with me and think that because they’re spending their hard earned money on these headshot photos that they want to look their best.

They get all glammed up and where they’re fancy clothes and way more makeup than they’re used to.

The photos end up looking fabulous, obviously, but they don’t represent who you are every day.

That is the difference between a glam photo shoot and a headshot photo shoot.

Headshot photography helps show the best version of you who you are right now every day to your potential clients.

As a professional headshot photographer in Vancouver, I highly recommend dressing like you would to meet a new client.

Your wardrobe should be nice, but it should also be your work wardrobe.

Headshot photography for lawyers will be different than headshot photography for people in the tech startup space.

If you want the best headshot photos, I recommend not overdressing.

$100 USB C Cable fix my problem? Tether Tools

since switching to the Canon Canada R system, I have had nothing but troubles when it comes to tethering.

For those of you don’t know tethering is where you connect your camera to your computer so that we can review the photos in real time. This is extremely important to me as a headshot photographer.

I used the Tether Tools system for years with my Canon 5Ds with absolutely no problems.

When I switched to the Canon R5 tethering became very tricky and temperamental, which is really awful to have to troubleshoot in front of clients.

Online research led me to believe is because I was using a CFAST type B card. so I switched to an SD card and that did not solve the problem.

More research that me to believe that tether tools themselves have lowered the quality in their cables and that no longer works, so I switched to a different brand and it worked pretty decent for a while, but then it stopped working.

I started to worry that it was my USB port in the camera, which would then make me need to buy a new camera or see if I could send it back to Canon to have the USB port changed.

I thought before I did that, but I would research a little bit more.

I found that a lot of the wireless cameras have issues with USB-C cables that also provide power. So I needed a data transfer cable that did not supply power to my camera.

I’ve only used it for one shoot, but it worked perfectly.

Tether Tools thank you for the article on your website that explained the power and data transfer issue and I’m really hopeful that this cord is the answer to my problems!

What to wear for your headshot photography session?

This is the story of how I got my job as a camera operator for the 2010 Vancouver Olympics.

I was tempted to wear a suit and tie to my interview. I obviously wanted to make a great impression, but I chose to wear black jeans, black T-shirt, and black, running shoes.

I felt like I was taking a risk dressing down, but as a camera operator, this would be my uniform. I dressed for the job that I wanted to get.

I really do think this decision played a factor into me getting the job.

What I didn’t tell in this story was they initially wanted me to be a cable Wrangler and not a camera operator because I was young and “ inexperienced”. I begged for the opportunity to interview for the camera operating job and they reluctantly gave me a shot.

I obviously impressed them because not only did I get the camera operating job. I got the second highest position. The highest position went to the Olympic hockey games and I got the Olympic speed skating games at the brand new Richmond Olympic oval.

This was a career highlight for me and I’ll never forget it.

so when you are choosing what wardrobe to wear for your headshot session, I highly recommend wearing what you would actually wear to the office or to meet a new client and not overdress. It could be the best decision you ever made.

What to wear to your headshot photography session. Headshot photography, wardrobe tip number two.

Lawyer Headshots, accountant Headshots, Fitness, Trainor, Headshots and professional services like Rmt’s and hairstylist Headshots are going to require different wardrobes.

I highly recommend wearing what you would wear to meet a new client.

Typically the point of a new headshot photo is to find new clients and grow your business. So no matter your career, even headshots for actors, your headshot photo is a business headshot.

Simply dress for your business.
