Headshots are loosening up. The clean studio seamless backdrops still works for consistency and teams, but what’s trending this year now leans into more portrait than “corporate.” People want to see context. Not just who they are, but where they are and what they do.
Offices, job sites, hallways, clinics and window lit corners with subtle environment in the background brings in a bit more story and also relaxed poses can show a relatable friendly side of you. A dentist in the exam room or a vet in a surgery room. These details communicate personality, credibility and purpose.
Modern headshots is not just about the face. It’s about place, profession, and presence.
