Tips for Capturing the Perfect Headshot?

Hi everyone,

I’m looking to improve my headshot photography skills and would love some advice from experienced photographers. What techniques do you recommend for lighting, posing, and composition to make a headshot really stand out?

How do you balance natural expression with professionalism, especially for corporate or LinkedIn-style portraits?

Are there any favorite lenses or camera settings you swear by? Also, any tips for editing without overdoing it would be super helpful.

I want my subjects to look polished yet approachable.

Looking forward to your insights and practical advice!
