ave you ever wondered why your headshots don’t look like
Halle Berry’s or the ones on the cover of the magazines? If so happens, there
is a crew of people involved in making Stars look like Stars. Besides, the
photographer, there are assistants, makeup and hair artists, and of course
Stylists. Another secret is someone to handle the imperfections in Photoshop
but we will discuss that later on the Graphics page.
Getting back, let us talk about the
Stylist’s duties and why you need one. One of the key jobs of a Stylist is to
know what is going on in Fashion. Trends, makeup, accessories and the like are
the Stylists’ language. When you are doing a shoot, the photographer is worried
about the lighting and the shot overall. The photographer’s job is to make sure
the photo is taken in the right lighting not if you have lint on your shirt or
that you are color blind when it comes to fashion.
So why do you want a Stylist at your Photo Shoot for your
headshots? You want to make sure that
if you are investing in yourself, that you have a team of people that can help
you create the image you want to project which of course is success.
Also, a
Stylist can help take off some of the tension when it comes to your photo
shoot. Many times people are nervous for a variety of reasons. A cool Stylist
can help you focus on being comfortable in front of the camera instead of you
focusing on if your shirt is wrinkled.
So if you
are ready for the look of Success, the Resume Rockette recommends the
