Corporate business headshots aren’t just for CEOs & entrepreneurs; they are important for all the staff within your company. Professional headshots of your staff show that you invest in your team. They will strengthen your brand & help boost sales whilst leaving a lasting positive impression on clients.
What are corporate staff headshots?
Staff headshots are, simply put, photos of the people working in your company. From the CEO to the CFO to the CMO to the MD’s PA to the HR Advisor to the Receptionist. They are the people behind the business. The people who make the company what it is.
Why do you need staff headshots?
Is your team visible?
People like to do business with people. Your website’s “Meet the Team” page is often where visitors, whether potential clients, recruits, or industry peers, go to learn more about your company’s personality & values. Including photos of your team creates a sense of familiarity, helping others connect names with faces.
Investing in high-quality images of your team builds a positive and lasting first impression of your brand.
Staff headshots can help clients feel more comfortable & trusting of your company.
Headshots serve as a visual representation of a company’s values & culture, conveyed through style, pose & expression. Serious expressions, formal attire & dark lighting project an image of authority, expertise & prestige – ideal for professions like law or consultancy.
In contrast, bright, airy photos featuring relaxed postures, casual dress & warm smiles create a sense of energy, creativity & approachability. Well-suited for industries like design or tech.
Choosing the right staff headshots not only helps connect with your target audience but also makes your business appear more welcoming, fostering trust & confidence among potential clients.
Bring visual consistency to your brand.

Why should a professional photographer take your staff headshots?
- An experienced professional photographer knows how to guide & direct people – of all shapes, sizes & ages – to make them feel comfortable & confident in front of the camera.
- They will work with your brand designers to ensure the photos fit cohesively with the look & feel of your visual branding.
- Through lighting, posing, the choice of background & how they interact with the subject, a professional photographer can help establish your brand values in your staff photos.
- A professional can shoot consistently at different times & across multiple locations. This ensures a unified brand image, no matter when or where the photos are taken. This makes it easier for you to make sure that new employees’ photos match existing images.
How to use your staff headshots
On the About Us page of your website to showcase the people behind the business.
In internal comms (e.g. a profile photo on Slack or Teams) so that team members, even in the largest of companies, are easily identified, fostering a sense of value & belonging. This in turn can help increase communication & collaboration across your team.
On LinkedIn to help create a connection to the company & promote the business to their networks. Statistics show that LinkedIn members with a photo receive more engagement than those without.
In marketing materials such as brochures that are given to potential clients. Like with the About Us page on the website, the headshots act as an introduction to the people who represent your brand.
To accompany guest articles in trade publications. Having a headshot ready to accompany the article is a great way to show the professionalism of your business to colleagues & competitors within the industry.
For conference speaker bios, event organisers usually want a headshot of speakers to include in the program & promotional material. A professionally taken image will enable your staff member to stand out.
PR & Media – Being in the media can significantly enhance a company’s image & reputation. Having headshots for all staff that fit the brand’s image & values can increase the opportunities of being featured. If key people are frequently in the media, it can be worthwhile taking some additional photos of them to have a variety to choose from.
Staff headshots don’t need to be boring!
I recently shot company-wide headshots for the global hospitality brand Duetto.
One of Duetto’s core brand values is “come as you are,” & they wanted this reflected in the photos – showcasing their team authentically. As a lively and vibrant brand, Duetto aimed to highlight each individual’s personality, ensuring their character shone through in every shot.
The pose, dress, lighting & colourful background immediately communicate to any potential client the kind of company Duetto are.
Unified company-wide headshots will help reinforce your brand identity, especially when you incorporate your brand colour as the background.
