How to Prepare for Your Professional Headshot Session
- Think of a place that fits your style — a park, city streets, or even the comfort of your home. Unconventional spots, like a pottery studio, an office, or a favorite café, can add a unique and personal touch to your photos.
- Choose an outfit that reflects your style and boosts your confidence — solid colours and simple textures photograph best.
- Groom your hair and nails for a polished appearance.
- Stay hydrated for that fresh and vibrant look.
- Get plenty of sleep (7–9 hours) before the session.
- Bring accessories or makeup for added personality.
Moreover, we’ll provide more prep tips — and your own MayerPix Posing Guide — in your client portal when you book. As a result, you won’t compromise on your professional image. Invest in yourself!

30-minute headshot questions
01How many photos do I get in 30 minutes?
10 edited images in total, including 3 fully retouched selections. You pick the 3 for retouching yourself in your client portal.
02Is there a deposit?
Yes — a Reservation Payment secures your date and time and counts toward the price. The rest is due 24 hours before your session, and we send you a reminder with a payment link.
03I’m not a model — will I look natural?
Yes. After booking, your client portal includes the MayerPix Posing Guide, which shows each pose, how to get into it, why it works and who it flatters most. Pick the poses you love, and your photographer brings them to life with you.
04What should I wear?
Choose an outfit you feel confident in: solid colours and simple textures photograph best. The 30-minute session includes one look; you can add an outfit during the session — you approve it by text first.
05Is a studio included?
Most sessions take place outdoors or at a location you choose — your home, office or a favourite spot. Where a partner studio is available, its price is shown separately before you book.
06Can I use the photos for my business?
Yes. Once your session is paid in full, you can use your photos for social media, personal branding, professional profiles and your own publicity. Reselling or licensing them to others is not included, and MayerPix keeps the copyright.
07Do I get RAW files?
No — you receive finished photos only. Every photo we deliver is professionally edited, so it is ready to post, print and share.
