What to Wear for a Professional Headshot - Boston Headshots

How much do professional headshots cost at Photography Shark?

Boston headshot sessions at Photography Shark start at $395, which includes the full session at our Rockland, MA studio, selection support, and delivery of fully retouched files.

How many outfits should I bring to my headshot session?

Bring two to three complete outfit options, including all accessories and layers for each look. Bring a lint roller — pet hair and lint show clearly on camera.

What colors photograph best for professional headshots?

Navy, charcoal, dark gray, deep teal, and burgundy are consistently strong choices. Avoid bright white as the dominant color and busy patterns that compete with your face.

Should I wear a suit for my Boston headshot?

It depends on your industry. Corporate and financial services clients generally photograph well in a suit. Tech and creative professionals often do better in a fitted blazer over a quality top. Chris will advise during the consultation.

Where is the Photography Shark studio, and which South Shore towns do you serve?

The studio is at 83 E Water Street in Rockland, MA. We serve professionals throughout the South Shore — Hingham, Scituate, Norwell, Duxbury, Plymouth, Quincy, Braintree, and Weymouth — as well as Boston.

How long does a headshot session take, and when will I get my photos?

A standard single-outfit headshot session runs 45–60 minutes. Retouched final images are delivered within five to seven business days.
