Why 2025 Is the Year to Refresh Your Headshot (Yes, Yours)
Hello, beautiful person with an outdated headshot! Let’s talk.
You know that profile photo you’ve been using since the Obama administration? The one where your hair was a different color, your jawline had more ambition, and you still believed in sourdough starters? Yeah. That one. It's time to let it go and say hello to a professional headshot that actually looks like you.
New Year, New Face (Kind Of)
It’s 2025, and if we’ve learned anything over the past few years, it’s that the world can change fast. So why are you still clinging to a photo from a time when you thought Succession was just a polite term for someone getting promoted?
Your career has evolved. Your style has matured. You bought that blazer that screams “I have opinions and an espresso machine.” Let's make sure your headshot matches that fabulous, possibly slightly neurotic, energy. It’s time to update your headshot in 2025 and show the world you’re ready for whatever the year throws at you.
You’re Not Just Updating a Photo. You’re Updating Your First Impression.
Whether you’re an actor, executive, entrepreneur, or professional tap dancer who moonlights as a podcast guest — your headshot is your digital handshake. And nobody wants to shake a clammy, outdated hand.
A great professional headshot in Los Angeles today needs to:
- Look like you (on a good day, not a prom night fantasy)
- Match your personal brand (serious, stylish, sassy, or some cocktail of all three)
- Pop in a feed crowded with AI avatars, memes, and dogs wearing glasses
The Algorithm Wants to Like You
Fun fact: Google is nosy. And LinkedIn is basically Tinder for jobs. A sharp, professionally lit headshot boosts credibility, click-throughs, and let’s be honest—vanity metrics that feel really good when you’re waiting in line at Trader Joe’s.
SEO? More like See Everyone’s Obsession. A fresh headshot for LinkedIn gives your website and profiles a visibility lift. It's like Botox for your personal brand. Minus the needles. (Unless you're into that. We don’t judge.)
But I Look the Same! (Spoiler: You Don’t)
Oh honey. You are wiser. You’ve been through things. You have better lighting preferences now. That’s growth. That deserves documentation.
And no, selfies don’t count. Unless you have a tripod, a diffuser, and a remote trigger—and if you do, why haven’t we worked together yet?
Whether you’re a CEO or a stand-up comic, your 2025 headshot should reflect where you're going, not where you've been. That’s the magic of great photography—and the power of a great headshot photographer in Los Angeles.
Book It, Baby.
This year, do something your future self will thank you for (right after they finish updating their taxes and pretending to read The Economist). Book your headshot session.
We’ll make it painless, fun, and—dare I say it—fabulous. You’ll walk away looking like your best self, but the kind of “best” that still shows up to meetings on time and knows which side is your good one. (Spoiler: it's both.)
