Henderson Loggie headshots
Hello HL team. I have created this page for you to introduce myself and support you with information that might be helpful with our upcoming headshots days.
Below you can see few portraits we took during the test shoot in Dundee office.
21 March 2024 headshot day statistics:
Numer of people photographed: 19
Number of portraits taken: 2245 (avg. 118 per person)
Total data created: 55.86 GB
26 March 2024 headshot day statistics:
Numer of people photographed: 19
Number of portraits taken: 2791 (avg. 147 per person)
Total data created: 69.37 GB
Notes:
Each person will have up to 10 minutes to be photographed and 5 final photographs to choose from.
I will take modern portraits of you, so your hands might show in the image, but your shoes won’t.
Best make up
The most important piece of advice here is to keep your make up mat: please avoid pearly, metallic products and glitter, as these products don’t photograph well in natural light. Please avoid strong contouring effect as this might look like bruising in photographs.
Best outfit for your headshots is one that:
makes you feel really good and is compliant with HL dress code (below)
doesn’t have strong, high contrast patterns or big logos
avoids very thin stripes that create Moiré effect
HL dress code for photographs
We want you to feel comfortable for your photographs, but we would also like some degree of consistency across the photos for the website and other branded material.
We would ask you to wear business dress for the photographs, but ties and suit jackets are not required, unless you feel more comfortable wearing a tie and a suit jacket.
As Karolina states above, please avoid high contrast patterns and stripes, as this does not photograph well.
Please avoid t-shirts, polo shirts and anything with branding on it.
If you have any other questions about dress code for the photographs, please speak with a member of the marketing team.”
I look forward to seeing you soon
Karolina
