This course is designed to teach you everything you need to know about shooting and editing your own headshot at home, with a camera or a phone. If you want to step up your social media profile photo (LinkedIn, Instagram, TikTok, Pinterest, etc.) this class is for you.

Why This Class?

Your profile image is the first point of contact with the online world. Having a strong headshot is important because:

1. It creates a visual first impression of you to potential employers, clients, or collaborators.
2. It can convey professionalism and competence, and can make you appear more approachable.
3. It helps to establish your personal brand and sets you apart from others in your field.
4. A high-quality profile image can increase your credibility and attract more opportunities.

In this class, I show many examples (both indoor and outdoor) of how you can easily shoot and edit impactful headshots in the comfort of your home.

Is this Class for me?

No prior experience in photography or editing is required. This course is designed to teach everything you need to know about the production and editing process with both mobile and desktop. It is suitable for beginners and intermediates who wish to learn and improve the quality of their profile photos.

Do you need expensive gear for this type of shot?

Absolutely not, everything you need is just a camera or a smartphone. During the course, I’ll show practical examples of how you can shoot your own headshot both indoor and outdoor.

Are you qualified to teach this topic?

While I used to be a commercial videographer for brands, in the past few years I specialised in Portrait Photography. During the first lockdown, I started teaching photo/videography tips on TikTok,  Instagram and YouTube where I now count almost 1M followers among the two platforms. What used to be my passion (photography) is now my full-time job. And I love it.
