What Sets a Headshot Apart

Professional headshots are created with purpose and expertise. Here’s how they stand out from selfies:

• Lighting and Equipment: A headshot is taken with high-quality cameras and professional lighting to ensure clarity and flattering tones. Selfies often rely on natural light or phone flashes, which can create shadows and inconsistent results.
• Background and Composition: Headshots typically feature clean, neutral backgrounds that keep the focus on you. In selfies, distracting backgrounds can take away from the image's overall professionalism.
• Post-Processing: Professional headshots undergo subtle retouching to enhance the final look without over-editing. Selfies, while they can be filtered, rarely achieve the same level of refinement.
