Take Your Career To The Next Level With Professional Headshots

By Ellie Jensen with Adobe Express

Professional headshots are an increasingly important part of any successful career. They have the power to draw attention and make you stand out in a crowded creative field, as well as boost your self-esteem and give you confidence. Whether you’re in the entertainment industry or applying for a job, it’s important to get a headshot that showcases your best features. In this blog post courtesy of photographer Erica J Mitchell, we’ll take a look at a few reasons why professional photography is crucial for your career.

A Professional Photographer Knows How To Bring Out Your Best Features

When selecting a photographer for your professional headshots, it’s important to find someone who understands how to bring out the best features in their subject. Photographers understand which angles and lighting will emphasize your facial features, and how to position you in order to get the perfect shot. A good photographer should also be able to provide direction on how to pose so that the focus is always on you.

A Pro Understands Trends in Various Industries

It’s not enough just to take a standard headshot photo for any occasion; for a professional image, your portrait must reflect current trends in your industry. Having knowledge of what kind of look is preferred by employers or casting directors can play a huge role when taking your picture. It could be something as simple as choosing the right background or clothing, or having knowledge of certain lighting techniques that will bring out your features better than others. A talented photographer will be able to give advice and guidance on all of these things so that you end up with a great shot that also fits within current trends.

Stand Out In a Crowded Creative Field

Having a great professional headshot can help make sure you stand out from other applicants or performers vying for the same job or role. The right portrait can show employers and casting directors that you have put a lot of thought and effort into your appearance, which can help them remember you when it’s time to make a decision. Your photographer may even be able to help you choose the right outfit or background depending on what kind of look you want to convey.

Boost Your Self-Esteem

Investing in getting professional photographs taken is more than just about looking good. It can also help boost your confidence and self-esteem by showing off who you really are without having to rely on filters or heavy makeup. Knowing that there is an amazing shot of yourself tucked away in your photo album can be helpful when times get tough, especially during job searches or auditions where rejection is inevitable at times.

Create Different Projects With Adobe Express

Once you have chosen the perfect photo from your session, consider using Adobe Express to create different projects with professional results. This program allows users to easily create professional-looking cards, logos, websites, and portfolios with ease, and the program is extremely budget-friendly. Here are a few examples of the projects you can make with Adobe:

  • Create a custom business card that shows off the personality of your business. This is perfect for networking no matter what field you’re in. Use the free Adobe Express app to build your card in no time.
  • Design a professional banner for LinkedIn and show potential employers what you’re all about. This is an easy way to catch their eye and show off your personality at the same time. Make sure the finished banner is uncluttered for maximum effectiveness.
  • If you’re a business owner, make a company brochure that includes your headshot. This is an easy-to-read format for customers when you have a lot of information to share. Add photos of your products or the business itself to make it more dynamic.
  • Make a stunning photo card to send out to friends or family. This is perfect for milestone events, such as graduations, or you can use it to announce an upcoming creative event such as a book launch or art show. Adobe’s tools make the process super quick and easy.

Investing in professional headshot photography is an invaluable investment when looking at enhancing your career prospects long-term, no matter what industry you are working in. Not only does it increase your chances of standing out among other applicants/performers, but it also provides you with tangible photos to use for promotional projects. With the right photos, you can boost your career immeasurably.

Professional Outdoor Corporate Headshots for Consulting Firm, Klosh Group

Reviewers and Participants

Fall Outdoor Corporate Headshots for Klosh Group New Hires

I was hired to photograph the new hires of the Klosh Group, a consulting firm, to match the exsisting headshots on their website.

We used the Beaverton Library as the outdoor background for their portraits. Outdoor headshots can be tricky this time of year as the leaves are falling and the rain is more frequent. We schedule multiple dates if possible ahead of time to have options in case of less than ideal weather conditions. 

Headshot Delivery for Klosh Group

Each new hire has a horizonal headshot (by request, most headshots are photographed vertical), two 8×10 crop options and one square crop option to use in two file formats, Print and Large Web for easy use.
