One photo, four outfits
Same person, same office, same light. Only the outfit changes, and with it what the photo says about you.
Why the outfit matters in a headshot
In a headshot, your clothes take up half the frame. Before anyone reads your title, the collar, the color and the fit have already told them whether you're the banker, the founder or the designer.
That's why the classic advice is so plain: solid colors, clean necklines, a fit that sits well on the shoulders. Nothing that pulls the eye away from your face, nothing that dates the photo in two years.
Every business scene comes with outfits built on exactly these rules. Pick one, and you wear it in every photo of your shoot, adapted to you.
Colors that work on camera
Navy, charcoal, camel, soft blue and cream flatter almost everyone and stay calm next to your face. A single accent, like a burgundy knit or a butter-yellow blazer, makes a photo memorable without shouting. Leave out logos, big prints and anything shiny: they pull the eye and date fast. Our outfits keep to one highlight each, so the photo stays about you. Unsure about your coloring? Warm skin tones glow in camel and cream, cooler ones in navy and grey.
Suit, blazer or knit?
Dress for the people who'll look at the photo. Finance, law and leadership roles still read a suit or a sharp blazer. Tech and startups trust a good knit or an open collar more. Creative work can carry texture and color. Each business scene has a formal look and a relaxed one, plus more outfits to switch between. When in doubt, dress one step above what you wear on a normal workday. That's what the people you meet expect.
Your own jacket, if you love it
Have a blazer you feel great in? Take one to three photos of it, on a hanger or laid flat, and wear it in your headshots. Or build an outfit from our pieces, color by color. The scene's outfits come with every shoot; your own style adds 20% to the order. Whatever the photos don't show is picked to match.

What to wear for headshots: questions
What should I wear for a professional headshot?
Solid colors, a clean neckline and a fit that sits well on the shoulders. Navy, charcoal, camel and soft blue work for almost everyone. Each business scene comes with outfits that follow these rules, so you can simply pick one.
What colors should I avoid in headshots?
Very bright colors, busy patterns, logos and shiny fabrics. They pull attention away from your face. A single accent color is fine; our outfits keep to one each.
Do I need to own the outfit?
No. Pick one of the scene's outfits or build one from our pieces, and you wear it in your photos. If you'd rather wear your own jacket, upload one to three photos of it.
Does choosing an outfit cost extra?
The scene's outfits come with every shoot. An outfit you build yourself, or your own clothes, adds 20% to the order, whatever the number of photos.
Can I wear two outfits in one shoot?
Yes. Photoshoots with two looks take two outfits: the photos of the second look wear the second outfit.
Business scenes with their outfits
Every scene brings its own outfits, from a dark executive suit to a cream knit in a brick loft. Open one and start your headshots in it.
