FAQ

DO I REALLY NEED A HEADSHOT?

Most professional adults should have a professional headshot. We now live in a digital age, where most people have an online presence and a lot of business have an online presence. Did you know that 91% of recruiters check LinkedIn during the recruitment process and they are 14 times more likely to click on a profile that has a headshot! Headshots are useful for the following reasons:

  • Actors portfolios

  • Websites

  • Annual reports

  • LinkedIn

  • Social media

  • Online dating

  • Networking

  • Recruiting

  • Client relations

  • Supplier relations

 

WHAT IS THE PROCESS?

The process is as easy as ABC:

A. You will have a pre consultation with Louise, to establish the message that you are trying to convey. We will decide which background best meets your needs at this time, and we will book in a mutually agreeable time.

B. Louise will come to your premises and setup a professional pop up studio, with the background of your choice. Each participant will spend approximately 5 minutes shooting time, and you will then select your favourite images.

C. Your images will be professionnally retouched and sent to you within two business days.

 

WHAT SHOULD I WEAR?

Louise will discuss this with you in your pre consultation, however, the most important thing is to consider the message or vision that you are trying to convey when selecting your wardrobe. If you are conveying a message of professionalism, standard office attire such as suits would be perfect. If your message is one of creativity and spontaneity, wearing a suit would be unsuitable. Common things to consider are:

  • Having hair or nails done prior to your session

  • Make sure that your hair is clean on the day of the session

  • You may wish to have professional hair and makeup, though this is not essential

  • Avoid clothing with patterns or loud stripes

  • Avoid clothing with logos or prints

 

CAN I SEE MY HEADSHOTS AT THE SESSION?

Yes. You will select the images for retouching with Louise at the end of your session. This will allow you to reshoot any images that you are not 100% satisfied with, until you have headshots that you love.

 

HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE FOR ME TO RECEIVE MY HEADSHOTS?

Louise offers a turnaround time of no more than two business days for headshot sessions with 20 or fewer people. Louise will provide an estimated delivery time with your quote, for sessions with more than 20 people.

 

HOW WILL I RECEIVE MY IMAGES?

You will receive an online link to download your images. This ensures the fastest turnaround time possible.

 

CAN YOU DO RUSH JOBS FOR URGENT HEADSHOTS?

Yes, depending on the studios schedule, we may be able to fit in an urgent headshot session. This may attract an additional fee.
