I’m excited to share another blog post about my approach to capturing headshots, and how enjoyable and stress-free the process can be—especially for those who may feel nervous about being in front of the camera. It’s something I hear often from clients: “I’m not used to being photographed” or “I’m not comfortable in front of the camera.” But don’t worry—I’m here to make the experience relaxed and enjoyable for you.
Standing in front of a camera can feel intimidating, but I’m here to guide you through every step. My goal is to make you feel at ease so you can showcase your best self. I understand that getting a great headshot is not just about how you look but how you feel in front of the camera. That’s why I put extra effort into ensuring you feel relaxed and confident. Together, we’ll work on creating an image that you’re proud of, one that truly represents who you are—energized, confident, and ready to take on the world!
In today’s post, I’ll walk you through my session with Viktoria. Viktoria came in feeling unsure about her first headshot session, but by the end, she left with a stunning photo and a big smile. While I don’t always use this technique, if you want to feel fully relaxed, it’s perfect for you. It’s all about creating a space where you can be yourself without any pressure.
My sessions always begin with a casual conversation. This helps set the tone and ensures you feel comfortable long before we even pick up the camera. We’ll talk about your work, your hobbies, or what you’re hoping to capture in your headshot. By the time we start shooting, you’ll already feel at ease and ready to go.
Once we begin, I focus on finding the best angles and flattering lighting to ensure your headshot is the best version of you. To ease any tension, we’ll try some fun, silly poses. These won’t make the final cut, but they help relax your face and ease any nervous energy. After a few laughs, we’ll focus on the real headshot. You’ll look natural, confident, and ready to shine.
By the end of the session, you’ll have a headshot you’re proud of, and the whole experience will feel far less intimidating than you might have expected. With my approach, you can expect not just a photo, but an enjoyable, stress-free experience that leaves you feeling great about your image!
