A corporate headshot typically focuses on the head and shoulders of the subject, with a neutral or simple background, and is often used for professional purposes such as email signatures, LinkedIn profiles, or company websites. The primary goal of a corporate headshot is to showcase the subject’s professionalism and approachability and to put a face to the name.
On the other hand, a corporate portrait is a more comprehensive image that captures the subject in various poses and settings, often including full-body shots and more elaborate backgrounds. Corporate portraits are typically used for marketing or branding purposes. They tend to have a more editorial style, so they work well for media releases or PR material.
While there is some overlap between the two, the primary difference is the level of detail and scope. Corporate headshots are more focused and simple, while corporate portraits are more complex and varied.
