While traditionally used for actors, in a digital world having a good headshot is more important than ever for just about anyone. Using your phone to take a photo just isn't good enough any more. Why? It'll look home-made, appear unprofessional, and it'll make you look cheap.
It's so important that you have a high-quality, professional headshot. It is your introduction and makes that vital first impression. Social media platforms like LinkedIn and Twitter are hunting grounds for recruiters and prospects alike. Once you have a good professional headshot on Linkedin, Google+, your Facebook business page, your Blog avatar, Forum profiles, account profiles, etc, you have a greater presence online, and it will be there 24/7 creating that positive first impression!
What to wear: when it comes to clothes best to bring one or two changes, the shirt and jacket are the most important items, NO busy patterns nor logos, they distract from your face. Fellas, have a haircut a week or so in before the shoot, as freshly cut hair can look strange in pictures.
