How much do corporate headshots cost in Perth?

Costs vary by volume. For a solo shoot, expect $250-$450. For teams, day rates apply (approx $1,500-$2,500) covering 10-30 staff members. This includes lighting setup, portable studio, and retouching.

Studio background or environmental?

Studio (plain background) is versatile, clean, and easy to match for future hires. Environmental (in your office/venue) is more modern, approachable, and tells a brand story. We recommend environmental for creative industries and hospitality.

Avoid fine patterns (which cause moiré effect) and neon colours. Solid, mid-tone colours work best. Most importantly: wear clothes that fit well. We provide a full style guide upon booking.

How long does it take per person?

For volume headshots, allow 10-15 minutes per person. This gives time to fix hair, build rapport, and get genuine expressions. Rushing leads to 'deer in headlights' looks.

Corporate Portraits & Headshots: Elevating Your Perth Team's Image

In the digital age, people still buy from people. Whether you run a law firm on St Georges Terrace, a creative agency in Northbridge, or a hospitality group in Fremantle, putting faces to your brand builds trust.

But not all “headshots” are created equal. The stiff, grey-background school-photo style is out. Authentic, engaging corporate portraiture is in.

Studio vs. Environmental: Choosing Your Style

Studio Headshots

The Look: Clean, solid colou background (White, Grey, Black, or Brand Colour).
Pros: deeply consistent; easy to replicate for new staff later; focuses 100% on the face.
Best for: Large corporate teams, LinkedIn profiles, directory listings.

Environmental Portraits

The Look: Taken in your workspace, venue, or an outdoor Perth location, with the background blurred (shallow depth of field).
Pros: Tells a story; feels modern and approachable; shows off your office/venue culture.
Best for: Creative agencies, hospitality (chefs in kitchen), architects, leadership teams.

Preparing Your Team

Most people hate having their photo taken. It’s our job to make them comfortable, but preparation helps:

The Schedule: create a timetable. Don’t make staff wait around for an hour.
The Mirror Check: Provide a full-length mirror near the staging area for last-minute checks (teeth, hair, collars).
The Brief: Tell staff why we are doing this. “We want to show our clients how friendly and professional we are.”

Beyond The Headshot: Interaction Shots

While we have the lights set up, we recommend capturing “B-Roll” of your team working.

Meeting room collaboration.
Coffee machine chats.
Sketching/planning sessions.

These images are gold for your careers page, annual reports, and social media content.
