Everything you need to know about selecting the right outfit, striking the perfect pose, and choosing the ideal background for professional doctor headshots.

Why Are Doctor Headshots Important?

First impressions are powerful—research shows that people form opinions within a fraction of a second. Today, many initial judgments happen online.

Patients frequently research medical professionals before booking appointments, and a high-quality headshot helps establish trust, making patients more comfortable selecting your practice.

How Should I Pose for a Doctor Headshot?

Posing should be simple and natural. Overly exaggerated or forced expressions feel inauthentic.

  • Start with relaxed, confident poses featuring a genuine smile
  • The classic crossed-arm pose conveys confidence and authority
  • Candid shots provide a friendly and approachable feel

Sessions focus on subtle, professional posing to highlight personality while maintaining credibility.

What Should I Wear for a Doctor Headshot?

Your outfit should reflect your role, specialty, and professional setting.

  • Business attire (suit, blazer, or dress shirt) works best for physicians in administrative roles or private practice
  • Scrubs are ideal for surgeons, emergency medicine doctors, and professionals where scrubs are standard
  • A lab coat over business attire is a common choice for general practitioners, pediatricians, and specialists

Look at how peers dress in professional photos to ensure consistency within your industry.

"I had a great experience with Andrew. As soon as I booked the appointment, he called me to align on my needs and expectations. During the photo shoot, he made me feel at ease and he took a lot of really good shots. It was hard to choose just a few. The editing process was really quick and even when I requested additional adjustments, he did them right away and made sure I was happy with the results. I'd highly recommend Andrew!"

"Andrew is an absolutely fantastic photographer. He is able to capture a variety of photos that tell a true 'story' through different lenses, angles, and lighting. I would 100% recommend Rocketa Industries to anyone who is looking for top-notch work."
