Getting a Headshot:

  • Ensure your face is well lit, but do not use flash. Make sure the top of your head is not out of the frame. The best way to get a well-lit photo is to take it inside by a window during the middle of the day, or outside around sunrise/sunset.
  • Keep your background simple, and ensure nothing inappropriate is in the frame.
  • Take your photo in portrait orientation (the picture should be taller than it is wide)
  • Smile!
