Hair and Make Up at my Head Shot Photo Shoot

Headshots – Are You Looking Your Best?

If you’re coming to a head shot photo shoot – whether you’re looking to update an acting or modelling portfolio or simply to update your corporate image, you will want to be looking and feeling your best. It’s likely that you will be using your head shot images for at least a year, so it’s worth paying a little attention to grooming, including your hair and makeup, before you come to visit the studio.

Your hair is often an integral part of your look so, whether you will be wearing it up or down, you’ll want to make sure it’s styled just as you like it. If you want an extra boost, you could schedule your head shot appointment just after your hairstylist appointment, so you come to visit the studio ‘salon fresh’.

For men, it’s also worth considering your facial hair according to the image you wish to portray. For example, if you are looking to create a clean cut and professional image, then come freshly shaved, or if you prefer a bit of a beard or five o’clock shadow then just make sure it’s neatly trimmed.

How you look in your head shot image will often be the first time a potential client will see you and so you want to make sure that the impression you create fits with your profession or skillset. In terms of makeup, you’ll often hear that you need to over apply it compared to your normal daywear, so it doesn’t wash out when you’re in front of studio lighting. That isn’t really true with today’s modern lighting and styles. The setup we use provides a very natural finish so using your normal amount of makeup will be just fine. It’s worth bringing along some powder with you to your session so you can touch up any shine when you arrive.

We often get asked if we airbrush the images and this is a difficult one to answer as everyone is different and ‘airbrushing’ can mean different things to different people. With a head shot image, we’re trying to show a true representation of what you look like although it is the ‘best version’ of you looking polished and professional. Any temporary blemishes will be removed, and a certain amount of skin smoothing will take place just to give your image a boost.

We don’t believe however in altering your face, facial features, or body shape, or reduce your age – you’re perfect as you are plus, you’re likely to meet the people that see your photo online and you want them to know that it’s you.

Introduction to Building Thermography: Detecting Non-Visible Defects

Understanding Building Thermography: An Introduction to Detecting Non-Visible Defects Building thermography is a powerful tool used in the field of construction and maintenance to identify non-visible defects in structures. It involves the use of thermal imaging cameras to capture and analyse the heat patterns emitted by buildings. By detecting variations in temperature, building thermography can reveal hidden issues that are not visible to the naked eye. This technology has revolutionised the way we inspect and maintain buildings, allowing for early detection of problems and preventing costly repairs. The Science Behind Building Thermography: How it Helps Identify Non-Visible Defects Building thermography is based on the principle that all objects emit infrared radiation, which is invisible to the human eye. Thermal imaging cameras detect this radiation and convert it into a visible image, where different colors represent different temperatures. By analysing these images, qualified th...

Thermal Bridging in Commercial Buildings

Unveiling the Hidden Costs: Thermal Bridging in Commercial Buildings In the intricate world of commercial building design and construction, one often-overlooked factor plays a crucial role in energy efficiency – thermal bridging. This phenomenon, where heat easily transfers through the fabric of a building, not only impacts the comfort of its occupants but also significantly increases operational costs. The effects of thermal bridging on heat loss and its financial implications for commercial buildings, can be assessed by the itilisation of sophisticated technique of thermal imaging used to identify and mitigate this issue. Understanding Thermal Bridging: Thermal bridging occurs when a conductive material provides a pathway for heat to bypass the insulation, creating a direct route for heat to escape or enter a building. In commercial buildings, common thermal bridges include structural elements like steel or concrete connections, as well as poorly insulated junctions between walls a...
