Professional Linkedin Photos: Why A Good Linkedin Photo Is Important
When it comes to first impressions, it’s important to have the best Linkedin headshots to represent you. Below are tips on how to pose for a Linkedin headshot, what to wear for a Linkedin headshot, and how to take a headshot for Linkedin profiles – all from a professional Linkedin headshot photographer.
Some professions don’t benefit as much from others when it comes to headshots. Individuals who are not customer facing or rarely change jobs in their careers often fit this mold (doctors, nurses, academia, teachers and many blue collar jobs).
With that said, you never know when layoffs can occur, when you might be pursued by a competitor, have a career change, need a photo for press purposes or will be searched for when using dating apps.
Obtaining a headshot on short notice can be a stressful process (haircut, wardrobe styling, posing, facial hair, securing a photographer etc. takes time).
Some people are good at taking a photo of themselves via a selfie stick, timer but most folks need help to take a good photo. For one, taking a photo too close to the subject can distort the person making them appear wider, bigger.
Taking a photo of yourself is challenging – lighting, background, unbiased feedback are a few of the advantages a professional brings to the table. Selfies can appear unprofessional and that is the last thing you want to convey on a professional networking platform.

What Makes A Good Linkedin Headshot? How To Take A Good Linkedin Photo?
A good Linkedin headshot is one that is a flattering and accurate representation of you, your brand and your reputation. It conveys certain aspects of your profession and industry. Beyond that, it is well-lit, professional and sharp.
A good professional Linkedin photo does not have to be professional but it should be genuine, authentic.
It should look like you if someone were to meet you today and easily recognize you by your photo. It shouldn’t be outdated or photoshopped to the point where someone would give pause and wonder how old is this photo and is this really you?
