How employee portraits become a success

Tips for HR and marketing

Professional portraits show more than just faces. They convey attitude, personality and professionalism – at first glance. Used correctly, they strengthen the employer brand, promote trust and create visibility.

To ensure that the shoot not only delivers good pictures, but also runs smoothly, it needs: preparation!

5 points that improve every shoot:

    • Clarify the purpose: What are the portraits needed for? Website, LinkedIn, PR, internal communication?
    • Determine the location: Directly at the workplace, in the mobile studio on location or in the photo studio in Berlin-Kreuzberg?
    • Define the look: Uniform or individual? Which look? Business formal or casual?
    • Internal communication: What to wear? What to bring? When is who’s turn?
    • Plan your time realistically: 8-30 minutes per person depending on the concept – plus styling and selection if necessary.

Our tip: Good pictures are taken on both sides of the camera. Clear preparation creates trust – and you can see that in every picture.
