LinkedIn Headshots

1 – Share your Soul. A great portrait goes far beyond the ink on the paper or the shiny precious metals lighting up our monitors; it’s an emotional document of a person’s heart and soul. Its your personal branding identity.

2 – Be Authentic. A LinkedIn headshot is an opportunity to bring your best, not to try and become someone else.

3 – Be Real. Some people smile wide, others don’t show a smile in the mouth but the eyes are smiling brightly.

1 – It should be a white background – only. Chose a cinematic background ( everything is out of focus ), grey, white or black if you want. Consider where else your headshot will be used such as your website and business cards and pick a backdrop that matches your design.

2 – LinkedIn headshot should have you smiling or just a picture of your head. Consult with your professional photographer and be authentic, don’t restrict opportunities prior to shooting, let the journey during a session dictate the final product.

3 – Use a speciffic camera, only! The camera has nothing to do with the final result for a great LinkedIn image… A LinkedIn headshot file size is a little bigger than a thumbnail size. Go with a professional who know how to capture your essence and don’t worry about his equipment, he can use an iPhone, medium format or polaroid equipment doesn’t matter.

1 – Authenticity – we want you! We photograph our clients as human beings rather than a product, place or event. Producing authentic, real and images that invite clients, friends and future people to build a relationship through your LinkedIn headshot.

2 – Technical Process – we produce the optimum headshot sizing for LinkedIn with a black border finish. A LinkedIn headshot is photoshopped and touched up in a distinct manner to produce an image that will stand out.

3 – Cropping for LinkedIn – cropping for LinkedIn is different than the headshots for printing or other mediums. We polish your image to stand out on LinkedIn.
