HEADSHOT: CATEGORIES, TERMS & PRICING
A headshot is an image that contains a condensed visual message conveying a package of information about one's most highlighted professional features in order for creating a strong and truthful impact on its beholder. It is a visual haiku telling all in a spark of the moment. Therefore, a successful headshot is unique to each person. From its lighting to the pose it must be carefully conceived and delicately executed specific to its subject.
A headshot is an investment. It tells who you are, what you do. It sets the first impression of the person it reaches. This is where its uniqueness comes to play. If you are an actor your headshot must talk the character style you are capable of bringing to life; it is the moment of decision for a casting director, whether or not you will get the role.
A lawyer's headshot cannot be shot as a real estate agent's or a designer's. Concisely said, it is maybe the most important visual communication tool you have—if you are doing a job, in which you directly interact with your clients or the professionals you work with. Therefore it is the most important investment that you make into your professional image.
A good HEADSHOT is not a luxury, it is a career investment.
