Have you consulted with a professional photographer? I feel as if they would be the best expert to ask your original question to.

For my professional shots I made sure to stay true to who I was as a fitness professional. I picked colors/settings I felt comfortable in and that exemplified my approach to personal training.

What type of business are you in and how do you plan to use your headshots in conjunction with it?

Hello Eunice,
I would use a solid background and decide if you want a frontal or semi-side profile. Black and white also makes a great statement too!
Choose attire that suits (no pun) the business you are representing.

I Hope This Helps!

Hi Eunice,

that’s one thing where a professional photographer really pays off because you will be using the picture over and over again.

For my own pictures, I chose a more casual setting but if a ‘headshot’ is required, I would rely on the expertise of a professional.

Good luck.

Hi Eunice,

I also used a professional photographer for mine. It’s worth your money to hire one.

Best,
