DRESS FOR THE CLIENT YOU WANT

Your headshot isn't just showing people what you look like.
It's showing them how you show up.

The clothes you choose can communicate confidence, professionalism, creativity, authority—or something else entirely.

Think about the client you're trying to attract.

If you want to work with high-level executives, does your image look like someone they'd trust in the room?

If you're a financial professional, does your wardrobe communicate confidence and credibility?

If you're a real estate agent, does your image communicate the confidence, professionalism, and approachability you'd want a buyer or seller to see?

If you're a creative, does it reflect your personality and point of view?

Your headshot and branding should look like the level of business you're trying to earn.

Don't just dress for the job you have.

Dress for the client you want.

Because your image often makes the introduction before you ever get the chance to.

It’s so sad to learn tonight that a location where I used to shoot so many senior sessions in California has gone up in flames. In fact, it appears the entire block was destroyed.

This is Newhall, part of the Santa Clarita Valley. Newhall was the earliest permanent settlement in the valley, established in 1876, and it has always had a unique, old-school California character.

The area had so many little shops and restaurants, and it had recently undergone a revitalization that brought new energy while preserving its historic charm.

I loved shooting there because of the quaint, historic architecture and that old Spanish/Western California feel. It was such a great backdrop for senior portraits.

What makes seeing this even harder is that one of the very first seniors I photographed, almost 20 years ago, was photographed right here. It’s still one of my favorite senior sessions I’ve ever done.

I’ve circled the door in both the fire photos and the Google Street View image so you can see the exact location of this door.

It’s heartbreaking to see a place that holds so many memories reduced to this. I was actually looking forward to shooting there again the next time we visited California.

Some places are more than just locations. They become a part of you.

The Smile Myth

Should you smile in your professional headshot?
The answer is: sometimes.

A smile can communicate warmth, approachability, and confidence.

But it isn't always the right expression for the person—or the position.

A financial advisor may want to project trust and confidence.
An attorney might want authority and credibility.
A creative director might want something more relaxed and editorial.

The goal isn't simply to make you look happy.
It's to create an expression that looks authentic to you and appropriate for the audience you're trying to reach.

That's why I don't just put someone in front of a camera and say, "Smile."
I watch the expression.
I watch the eyes.
I watch the posture.

Because sometimes the best photograph isn't the one where you're smiling.

It's the one where you look like you belong in the room.

Your headshot is often your first introduction, make it count.

Whether you're building your personal brand, updating LinkedIn, or positioning yourself for your next opportunity, a professional headshot does more than show what you look like, it communicates confidence, credibility, and approachability before you ever shake hands.

Don't let an outdated selfie or cropped vacation photo tell your story.

Let's create images that work as hard as you do.
