There’s no one right way to photograph a subject, but there are always better and worse ways of capturing a professional headshot. I start by asking basic questions. Spending time, even if only briefly, listening to answers and observing body language helps me navigate endless choices on location and during post production. Here are a few of my kick starters:
—Who are you?
—What’s the objective?
—What does success look like?
—Why are we doing this?
Those questions are just as effective in other professions as they are in headshot photography.
