LinkedIn headshots in Los Angeles
LinkedIn headshots in Los Angeles for profiles that need to look current and credible
A short, directed session that gives you a clean profile photo that holds up in the avatar, the bigger profile header, and recruiter search results — without booking a full half-day.
Why LinkedIn headshots are their own thing
The image has to survive a circular avatar mask, hold up next to a sea of phone selfies in recruiter search results, and still feel like the person who shows up to the meeting. The crop, the expression, the background contrast, and the lighting choices are slightly different from a press portrait or a personal-branding frame — directed for trust at small sizes, not just for an editorial portrait at full screen.

LinkedIn session packages
The LinkedIn line is built around a focused profile update. Mini is the fastest option when you need one clean final image. Quick gives a little more room for direction and variation. Standard and Signature add more selects, more background flexibility, and two retouched finals for people who need a stronger profile set across LinkedIn, company bios, and public-facing pages.

The quick-session format
Mini and Quick are short, focused sessions for a single LinkedIn refresh — one retouched final each and a small set of color-corrected selects to review. Standard and Signature run a little longer, include two retouched finals, and give a wider set of selects when the same images need to land on a company bio, press page, or speaker profile. Proofs land in a private gallery within a few days; finals follow standard one-to-two week turnaround.

Profile image checklist
- Face visibility: top third of the frame, well-lit
- Eye contact: camera, not floor
- Background contrast: separates you from the wall
- Wardrobe: solid color, well-fitted, no logos
- Crop options: square avatar, vertical bio, wider editorial

Upgrade decision
Upgrade if LinkedIn isn't the only place the image will live. A professional headshot session covers LinkedIn plus company bios, press, and websites with more outfits and looks. A personal branding shoot adds environmental and process frames for content, launches, and PR. For leadership with a press profile, see executive portraits. If LinkedIn is the only target and the timeline is tight, a LinkedIn package on this page is exactly what you want.

Common questions
What makes a good LinkedIn headshot?
A clean, well-lit face filling roughly the top third of the frame, eye contact, a background that contrasts your skin and wardrobe without competing, an expression that reads as confident-and-approachable, and a crop that survives LinkedIn's circular avatar mask. We direct each of those live during the shoot so the image holds up in the small avatar, in the bigger profile header, and in recruiter search results.
How fast is a LinkedIn-focused session?
LinkedIn Mini is the fastest option at 15 minutes — one clean retouched final for professionals who want a quick profile refresh. LinkedIn Quick runs 20 minutes with a little more room for direction and variation. LinkedIn Standard runs 25 minutes and adds more selects, more background options, and two retouched finals. LinkedIn Signature runs 30 minutes for the fullest LinkedIn package before stepping into the editorial line. Final delivery is the standard one-to-two-week turnaround from your gallery selection.
What should I wear?
Bring one or two options that fit how you actually show up at work — a clean shirt, a structured layer, or a knit in a solid color. Avoid loud patterns, brand-new clothes, and anything that needs ironing on set. LinkedIn sessions use a single outfit; bring one or two options to choose from on the day. We send a short prep note after booking and direct fit and adjustments live during the shoot.
Can I use the same image for my company bio?
Yes — every delivered file carries unlimited usage rights, so the same image runs on LinkedIn, your company's About page, conference bios, speaker profiles, and your personal site without re-licensing. We crop and deliver each retouched final at sizes that work for the square LinkedIn avatar, a vertical bio portrait, and a wider editorial layout so you don't have to ask a designer to re-crop for each channel.
How many final images will I receive?
LinkedIn Mini delivers one retouched final from 8 color-corrected selects. LinkedIn Quick delivers one retouched final from 12 selects. LinkedIn Standard delivers two retouched finals from 18 selects. LinkedIn Signature delivers two retouched finals from 25 selects. You choose the finals from the private gallery after the shoot. If you want more retouching than the package includes — for example, a separate cropped version optimized just for LinkedIn search — flag it on the form and we'll confirm scope. We don't change package data; add-ons are quoted separately.
Should I upgrade to a professional or personal branding session?
Upgrade if LinkedIn isn't the only place the image will live. A professional headshot covers LinkedIn plus company bios, press, and websites with more outfits and looks. A personal branding shoot adds environmental and process frames for content, launches, and PR. If LinkedIn is the only target and the timeline is tight, a LinkedIn package on this page is exactly what you want.
