When Lavender International got in touch about headshots for their team, they didn’t just want a few nice photos—they wanted consistency across the board, from Penistone to Rotherham.
They were refreshing their website and social media, and it was important to them that their team looked cohesive, professional, and approachable. You know… not like they were dragged in front of a camera last minute with no idea what to do. (Because yes, we’ve all seen those headshots…)
Planning for success
Lavender absolutely nailed the prep for this shoot. They made sure every single team member wore the company logo—whether it was a branded shirt, jacket, or even a little pin badge. That kind of attention to detail makes such a difference in the final photos.
Staff were also given individual time slots, which helped the shoot run smoothly across both sites (Penistone andRotherham). No bottlenecks. No one hanging around for hours. Just a slick, well-organised process—exactly how I like it.
Consistency is key
One thing I always make sure of on corporate headshot days? All the photos face the same direction.
It sounds simple, but you’d be surprised how many brands end up with a mishmash of different angles and styles that scream “thrown together.”
Consistency in your team imagery is what makes your company look professional, trustworthy, and credible. Especially when those photos end up on your website, proposals, and LinkedIn profiles.
Making it easy on camera-shy teams
Let’s be real: not everyone’s thrilled about getting their photo taken.
In fact, a lot of Lavender’s staff were feeling a bit nervous before their headshot.
But part of my job is helping people relax. I chat, I direct gently, and I never ask anyone to do anything cringey. Before long, the nerves go, and the real personalities come out—and that’s what makes a great headshot.
Here’s what Lavender International had to say:
“The process with Lyn has been seamless from beginning to end. From booking through to execution today—it’s all been plain sailing. Very easy to be around. We had a lot of staff who were anxious to be behind the camera, but she put everyone at ease, so would definitely recommend.”
