How to Prepare 

This is a professional photo booth, so we do recommend to dress in a way that will make you feel good and look professional. Golden rule is that you want to “dress for the job you want.” So whether you see yourself in a business professional, business casual, or smart casual-wear environment, you want to dress in a way that feels authentically you and matches your brand, but also meets some basic guidelines.  

Since you are taking headshots, here are some tips for how to prep for your photo session: 

• Wear colors that compliment your eye color, skin tone, and hair color. 
• Choose outfits that have simple colors or patterns and are less likely to clash with your background.  
• Don’t go crazy with accessories. Keep them small and simple. If it is bold, make sure it ties in with your brand.  
• Be mindful that if you wear glasses, you may need to remove them for your session as there may be a glare with the ring light. 
• Don’t have a suit or blazer? We’ve got you covered at the R’Professional Career Closet. We will also have a couple blazers available in the R’Professional Photo Booth station to use during your session to spruce up your outfit.

• Additional Tips
  • Choose a background that compliments your outfit, eye color, skin tone, and hair color.  
  • Try different poses. Some options could include leaning towards the camera, trying different angles with your shoulders, chin and tilting your head, or pushing your chin forward and down. 
  • Look directly at the camera, and be genuine in your expressions. Try and conjure up real emotions, funny moments, or things that make you happy.
