Literally my first time ever doing a headshot for money. Besides the very unfortunate background (I wish I had arranged to do this on location somewhere), what do you all think? Image is to be used for LinkedIn and other professional uses.

I would get rid of the hotspots on her forehead, either in camera raw or you could try to feather that main light which seems to be a beauty dish. Also the face needs more cleaning and some dodge and burn.

It’s a good shot.

It could be a little oil on the skin. I always keep a pack or two blotting tissue around for that. Is the background a corner? Seems to be a dark and lighter half with a shadow line growing up out of her head. The background (to me at least) could be a few feet further back. Less intrusive in the pic

Here’s a good read: https://fstoppers.com …started-photography-30897 (external link)


Here’s an sample, background-wise about 7 feet from the model.

Thanks much for the feedback, all!

Agreed on the hot spot on the forehead. Is that just a result of the beauty dish maybe being too close?

What types of things would you clean up on the face? I removed some blemishes but didn't go hard at all.

I definitely wish I could have had the background further back, but I was constrained by space. It's not a corner, perhaps a wrinkle or something? Either way... need to pay more attention to the background for sure.

Yesterday a friend asked for a favour to update his headshot, the company had a photographer come in and just didn't get him right, the usual of just a couple of shots and no real direction. Naturally I said yes, as he did the surveying on my house for free how could I say no.
He showed me his website and the other partners shots, B&W with white back, easy enough so.
The headshot we did in the end, 6:30pm on a Saturday, long week...

I didn't do any sort of skin smoothing, but I did take a look at that fstoppers link which was super helpful. Here's the updated version with some dodge/burn action.
