Professional Headshot Men Mexico City: Reforma in Violet

The Professional headshot register

In March the jacarandas of Paseo de la Reforma stand violet against the glass towers and the gold column of the Angel, and the pavement is carpeted in petals. The pack puts a lawyer's headshot there in a deep violet that takes the trees' colour into tailoring: an aubergine-violet wool suit over a lilac shirt.

Three frames carry the look. A head and shoulders under the canopy, violet bloom soft behind the face. A chest-up before a glass tower with petals on the pavement. A half-length along the avenue, the violet receding toward the column. The towers are held to glass greys, and the clear high-altitude light is softened by the branches.

What comes out is photographic: nine photos of you, three in each of three settings, in the look of Paseo de la Reforma in Mexico City. The place and the wardrobe are borrowed as a setting; the photos are portraits of you, not pictures taken there.

How to photograph yourself for a professional headshot

Better source photos make better portraits. An ordinary phone photo is enough, and a few habits sharpen the likeness.

1. Even, soft lightStand near a window with daylight on your face. Avoid overhead bulbs and phone flash, which flatten a face.
2. Front or three-quarter angleCamera at eye level, facing it or turned slightly. No shot from below, no stretched arm.
3. Face fully clearHair off the face, no sunglasses and no filters. A clear, front-facing phone photo is the best starting point.
4. A calm, level lookA relaxed, attentive expression in your source photo carries over best into the finished portraits.
5. A plain background is fineDo not worry about your own backdrop. The pack replaces it entirely.

Frequently asked questions

Is this a real photo taken at Paseo de la Reforma in Mexico City?

No. It is a portrait of you set in the look of Paseo de la Reforma in Mexico City. It is not a picture taken there.

Will it look like a real photograph?

Yes. Every photo is photoreal: a real-looking photograph of you in the look of Paseo de la Reforma in Mexico City, not a painting or a cartoon.

Is it right for lawyers, executives and consultants?

Yes. It suits lawyers, executives and consultants, for a profile page, a programme, a byline or a card.

Is a purple suit too daring for a lawyer?

An aubergine wool cut deep enough to read near-dark is a formal choice. Under the jacarandas it takes on the avenue's violet, and in the glass-tower frame it reads as navy-leaning.

Is this pack for men?

The wardrobe and styling are cut for men, so the pack reads that way. Other packs on Narcis suit other looks.

Will the photos look like me?

Every photo looks like you, well photographed. If one is nearly right, say what to change, in your own words.

Do I have to write a prompt?

No. There is nothing to write: you pick a pack, and it is ready in seconds.

How many photos of myself do I add?

Between six and twenty, from different days and in different light, with your face clear. We check each one when you add it.

What happens to the photos I add?
