What is considered a headshot? A headshot is a tightly cropped photo of the face, from the shoulders up. The subject is camera aware — typically looking right in the lens.
What color is best to wear for headshots?
Neutral or solid colors are best, stay away from loud patterns or bright colors. Solid and neutral colours always work well as the eye is used to seeing them and they have little chance of overwhelming the frame. Light neutral shades include white and cream, while dark ones include navy and black.
Do headshots include full body?
Headshots can def be more than just a headshot but then were talking about a thing called Personal Branding. Most headshots are considered shoulder to crop.
Do you wear makeup in headshots?
For headshots, you want natural-look makeup. “Light” makeup is suitable as long as it is natural and evenly applied. It is more important to aim for a natural look than “light.” Although both can be accomplished simultaneously, it is important to prevent an uneven application.

Should you wear jewelry in a headshot? So long as you have the right hair and makeup for your headshot session, jewelry should just be a “finishing touch.” For necklaces, make sure the pendant is visible above the crop of the photo. For earrings, stick with simple metallic or gemstone studs, and wear dangling earrings with caution.
