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

Why Are Executive Headshots Important?

First impressions happen in just a fraction of a second, and they significantly impact how you are perceived by colleagues, clients, and investors.

Since most professional introductions happen online, having a polished headshot is essential: Recruiters and hiring managers use LinkedIn to assess leadership candidates. Potential clients and business partners research executives before engaging in business. Investors review company leadership through About Us pages and presentations.

A well-executed executive headshot helps you stand out and positions you as a credible and authoritative leader in your field.

How Should I Pose for an Executive Headshot?

Executive headshots should be professional, yet natural—rigid or overly dramatic poses can feel inauthentic.

  • Begin with a confident, relaxed stance—a genuine smile works well
  • Arms-crossed poses are popular for executives as they project strength and authority
  • Candid or slight-angle shots can add a dynamic, engaging element to your image

Our approach prioritizes simple, effective poses that highlight your leadership presence while maintaining authenticity.

What Should I Wear for an Executive Headshot?

Your outfit should reflect your industry, corporate culture, and professional standing.

  • Traditional corporate industries (finance, law, consulting): A well-tailored suit and tie or a professional blazer is ideal
  • Technology, startups, and creative industries: Business casual attire may be appropriate, maintaining a polished but approachable look
  • Entrepreneurs and CEOs: Consider having both formal and semi-formal options to use across different platforms

A good rule of thumb: Look at top executives in your industry and observe how they present themselves in headshots. When in doubt, dress for the leadership position you aim for, not just your current role.

"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."
