Professional corporate headshot should showcase your individuality as well as a professional view of your business.
Image is everything, especially online.
A professional corporate headshot has the power to define that image and therefore they Simply need to be the best they can be.
We might live in a world of remote working and online networking, but at heart, business is still driven by the ‘people buy from people’ mantra. Which is why the professional corporate headshot of you, the Board and your team need to do the heavy lifting.
Your company profile page, your LinkedIn image, and the ‘Who’s Who’ behind your brand are all great opportunities to show the world the real you, your values and those of the team behind your business.
But there are options when it comes to headshots and it does not have to mean formal, stiff poses or a flat corporate look with no personality.
As an experienced and reliable professional headshot and personal branding photographer I can help you to discover which style of headshot would suit your purpose. By identifying where your images will be used and what you want your portrait or headshot images to show about you, your brand and business, we can discuss the various options that will create the best results and allay the fears of even the most camera shy.
From a small collection of headshots to a larger portfolio of personal branding headshots “Simply You” I can guide you in creating the perfect headshot imagery that suits your purpose.
Whether you opt for lifestyle portraits, editorial or more formal headshots the result will be a bespoke selection of powerful business portraits and professional branding headshots that ensure you are confidently standing out for all the right reasons, making the right first impression.

Corporate Headshot Photographer FAQs
What to wear for a corporate headshot?
Whether it’s a headshot or a personal branding portrait, you still need to feel good about yourself, and the way to do that is to be comfortable in what you’re wearing. Your clothes also tell people a lot about your personality, and that’s what I’m looking to capture. So do think about the story of you and your brand that you’re looking to project. You may feel at your most comfortable wearing a onesie whilst watching Netflix in bed, but that probably won’t be the image you want appearing next to your podium in a conference. Visit my blog page and read, ‘What should I wear for a corporate headshot?’
How to pose for corporate headshots?
Comfort is always key for headshots. From the clothes you choose to wear to how you position yourself. If your job isn’t spent behind a desk then your headshot shouldn’t be either and if you are not comfortable then it will come across in images. Whilst I don’t advocate ‘posing’ for pictures in the traditional sense, I will help you to find the style and pose that suits you best and at the very least, relax your shoulders! So we will chat and I will quickly and quietly capture you. It’s so painless and quick that you won’t even notice!
What professions need a professional headshot?
You might ask yourself, “Who needs a headshot? And should I be getting one?" Maybe I’m biased, but I think everybody should have a great headshot these days. The reasons for this are endless and many industries and professions require one. Businesses that have people at their very heart can benefit from professional headshots as part of their ‘meet the team’ strategy and a way to humanise their enterprise.
What makes a good corporate headshot?
A good corporate headshot is one that shows people something about you and your business. People buy from people. A good corporate headshot will show an element of a person’s personality, their role and the very essence of them. It will also be a very hard working image, suitable to be used across a variety of places, from your website to your social media and printed literature. That said, a good headshot or personal branding photoshoot will leave you with several great images so that you can choose the right headshot image for the right situation and medium.
Why are corporate headshots important?
In these digital days, long before someone meets you in person, they’ve probably already got an idea of who you are and what you look like. Perhaps they’ve visited your LinkedIn profile, seen you on the ‘About Us’ section of your website, or read your contributor bio in a trade publication. They might even have your sales brochure in their pocket and no matter what else their research tells them about you, the thing that will leave the biggest impression is that initial corporate headshot.
What are corporate headshots?
Corporate headshots are about capturing an image that shows people who you are, ideally an element of what you do and gets across how you want to be perceived by the outside world. Professional corporate headshots have the power to define what you want the world to see and with the impact that they can have, so they really do need to be the best they can be.
Where to take a corporate headshot?
Headshots don’t have to be boring! I am a huge fan of candid images (it’s what the C in ‘Simply C’ stands for) and I love to take a lifestyle approach in getting people away from their desks to make the most of their environment when taking corporate headshots. For instance, outside your place of work, or at a significant location in your career. It’s a great way to tell your story and get across what you do. It offers a lot of ways to use background details, get a candid shot using natural light and even bring a sense of fun and personality into the picture.
How much do corporate headshots cost?
The cost of a Simply C headshot photoshoot will always vary, depending on the time required and location, and, as with all of my photoshoots' pricing, is bespoke to each client and the brief.
However, if a photoshoot includes a larger number of employees or involves capturing on site or in a variety of different locations this would be priced on a time element and quoted as a bespoke commission.
