Tips for your LinkedIn profile photo.

Tips for your LinkedIn profile photo, which we suggest to our clients.

So, you have made the right decision and decided to commission a professional corporate headshot photographer to capture your LinkedIn profile photo. Our first tip is to communicate with the photographer and get their guidance on top tips to get you looking like a City professional. The photographer will be taking LinkedIn profile photos most days of the week, so they will have insights into how you can get the best for your money.

Top tips for your LinkedIn profile photo is to consider your posture. Most people don’t have the best posture due to sitting and staring at a computer screen all day. Your professional corporate headshot photographer will know this, and they will be able to suggest different stances to hide bad posture. We suggest that you do not stand front on to the camera as if you are in a football team or military photo. Stand at 45 degrees so that your body is not facing the camera, and then turn your head directly at the camera. This will make you look more approachable and friendly.

Tips for your LinkedIn profile photo: make sure you look confident in front of the camera. Maintain eye contact with the camera at all times. Chat with the professional corporate headshot photographer and get them to talk back to you so that you will look interested in what they are saying. This will come across in your new LinkedIn profile photo.

When it comes to tips for your LinkedIn profile photo, our biggest goal is to get your hair under control. We can rectify bad hair in post-production, but if you can visit the hairdresser or barber the day before, you will feel more confident, and this will improve your LinkedIn profile photo. This is especially the case if you want your LinkedIn profile photo to be captured with a London cityscape background, as the British weather is very rarely calm!

Final tips for your LinkedIn profile photo: Most people are a little nervous for the first few minutes in front of the camera. These first LinkedIn profile photos will not be as good as the last ones you have taken in the session. The longer the shoot goes on, the more relaxed you will look and, therefore, the more confident and professional you will look.
