THE CLASSIC HEADSHOT.
USED FOR REPRESENTING YOURSELF ON YOUR WEBSITE, USED ON LINKEDIN, SOMETIMES USED ON YOUR COMPANY’S PRINT MEDIA.
In many fields, having a professional headshot is expected. It demonstrates that you take your work seriously and care about your professional image. Whether you're a freelancer, an entrepreneur, or a job seeker, a high-quality headshot can enhance your credibility and trustworthiness.
A headshot is essential for networking both online and offline. It helps people recognise you at events, connect with you on social media, or remember you after a meeting. A memorable headshot can make you more memorable and increase your networking effectiveness.
Actor / Performer
YOUR HEADSHOT IS A KEY ELEMENT OF YOUR PERSONAL BRAND. IT CAN COMMUNICATE YOUR STYLE, PERSONALITY, AND VALUES TO POTENTIAL CLIENTS, EMPLOYERS, OR COLLABORATORS. A WELL-CRAFTED HEADSHOT CAN HELP YOU STAND OUT AND MAKE A LASTING IMPRESSION.
Approaching this kind of style is normally more creative in its look.
That means shooting in outdoor spaces on occasion and sometimes in the controlled environment of a studio.
Actors and performers are always in need of updated imagery to ensure casting knows of how you look currently and what kind of styles your look is adaptable to.
Big Team / Company
IT'S IMPORTANT FOR COMPANIES TO SHOW UNITY AND PROFESSIONALISM. ONE OF THE BEST WAYS TO DO THIS IS TO HAVE EVERYONE WITHIN THE COMPANY HAVING THE SAME HEADSHOT; FURTHER INSTILLING A SENSE OF CONSISTENCY, CONTINUITY AND STRENGTHENING BRAND IDENTITY.
If you work for a large company or firm that has hundreds of individuals that need new headshots, all to follow a cohesive brand or existing style of imagery, JPHS can work alongside you for a set amount of time to ensure everyone in your team gets the right image for your company.
Images can then be hosted privately for your employees to choose in their own time or be sent directly to your marketing/communications team to allocate which image is best for your employees.

IF YOU REQUIRE A MORE LAID BACK, APPROACHABLE FEEL TO YOUR IMAGES, THE ‘PORTRAITS HEADSHOT’ CAN HELP YOU LOOK MORE RELAXED THAN A TRADITIONAL HEADSHOT MIGHT BE ABLE TO DO.
These images are often taken at your place of work or somewhere that helps reinforce your brand identity.
Knowing and understanding this can take these images to the next level to ensure your customers see you as a human and not just another face on a screen.
