THERAPIST HEADSHOTS
Get perfect Therapist headshots by following our guidelines on attire, posing techniques, and background choices.
What are Therapist Headshots?
Therapist headshots are professional photographs taken specifically for use by therapists (mental health or physical health) or other health professionals. They are meant to showcase a person's appearance and personality in a way that is appropriate and professional. Therapist headshots are typically used on professional networking sites, marketing materials, and therapy or mental health websites.
Are Therapist Headshots important?
Therapist headshots are important for a number of reasons. First and foremost, they can help you stand out on a professional networking site or job-seeking platform by showing off your unique personality and appearance. In addition, therapist headshots can convey a sense of trustworthiness and reliability, which can be especially important for those working in the medical field.
First impressions are everything. In just a fraction of a second, they shape the way others see you - determining whether they'll trust you, want to do business with you, or even give you a chance. And it's not always rational - sometimes it's just a gut feeling. But one thing's for sure: you want to make sure that initial impression is a good one. That's where I come in. Let me help you put your best face forward with a professional headshot that will make you stand out in the crowd.
What to wear for Therapist Headshots?
For therapist headshots, it's important to present a professional and welcoming appearance. Business casual attire is typically the best choice, such as a button-down shirt or blouse paired with slacks or a skirt. Avoid wearing clothing with busy patterns or loud colors, as they can be distracting in a headshot. Solid colors or subtle patterns are a safe and classic choice. It's also a good idea to avoid wearing clothing with distracting logos or graphics.

How Should I prepare for Therapist Headshots?
Your headshot is more than just a picture, it's a representation of you and your brand. That's why I believe that preparation is key. Here are a few tips to help you get ready for your session:
Prioritize self-care. Get enough sleep, exercise and spend some time in the sunshine in the weeks leading up to your session. This will help ensure that your photos look as natural as possible.
Dress for success. Make sure your outfit is comfortable and well-fitting. Try it on a couple days before your session to ensure that it still fits and doesn't require any dry cleaning.
Know your angles. Take a look at some previous photos of yourself, and see which angles you find most flattering. Bring those photos with you to your session to be used as reference. This will help me find the perfect angle to showcase you and your brand.
Leave the rest to us, my team and I will work with you to create a headshot that truly represents the best version of yourself.
How much do Therapist Headshots cost?
When it comes to capturing the perfect therapist headshot, cost can be a tricky thing to navigate. Prices can range from $50 to $800, depending on location, package, and photographer. But don't let a lower price tag fool you - often times, the cheapest option can result in less-than-stellar photography.
When planning your headshot budget, it's crucial to factor in not just the session fee, but also the cost of licensing and retouching. Many photographers only grant ownership of the images if they are purchased separately from the session fee. And, if you plan to use your headshot for press releases, advertisements, or other public uses, additional licensing fees may apply.
Retouching can also add up, with photographers charging anywhere from $30 to $80 per image. Keep these costs in mind when determining your total budget.
At Austen Hunter Photography, we understand the importance of striking the perfect balance between cost and quality. Our sessions range from $175 to $600 and include full copyright usage rights to all of the images captured during your session. Plus, retouching is available for $24.99 per photo, with various package options to meet your needs. Head to our pricing page to learn more about the options we offer and find the perfect fit for you.
