The happiness connection between LinkedIn headshots outdoors and short sessions
Short sessions make you happy because:
- They are fuss-free
- They suit camera-shy professionals
- They are budget-friendly
Ergo, happiness abounds.
In the ten-plus years, I’ve been photographing professionals for their LinkedIn headshots outdoors, I’ve found business owners who ask me to take their photos during my express sessions are happier and more satisfied with their experience because they are short on time and just need to ‘get them done’.
While you love your successful career and gorgeous family, being “too busy” to update your headshots can make you feel guilty and frustrated. Your day feels too full of tasks and tick lists that keep you from working on projects that will move you forward professionally and personally.
No time for a photo shoot? No problem! Read on to find out how I can help you.
It can be difficult and stressful to plan and book an outdoor LinkedIn headshot at first. You’ll need to make a lot of decisions and can sometimes go in circles before you find your way. We have put together a guide to help you plan and book a professional headshot. The following article will help you plan and book your LinkedIn headshot and find the happiness connection.
LinkedIn headshots outdoors for professionals who want the minimum of fuss
Quick sessions mean that busy professionals only need carve out 30 to 45 minutes out of their day leaving them time to look after their family, do their household chores, and still have time to relax over the weekend.
We schedule 2-3 sessions per day and I show up early in the morning or first thing when you arrive so we can begin working immediately.
When I’m working on a project, I make sure I ask questions that will help me understand you as a person. My goal is to ensure you are comfortable with your poses, your image, and your surroundings.
If you need easy-going sessions that are fuss-free then I’ve got you covered!

LinkedIn headshots outdoors for camera-shy professionals
I am aware that some people are more camera-shy than others and if this is the case for your professional then I can offer you a solution. The best way to get past your camera-shyness is to have a little fun with it!
Short sessions are low-risk. After all, you’ll only spend thirty minutes with me, so what do you have to lose?
To ensure a painless experience, I work quickly and efficiently. Most people express surprise at how quickly the session went and how enjoyable they found it. As a bonus, you will learn new tips and tricks to use next time you are taking a selfie or facing the camera.
Having fun during your outdoor headshot for LinkedIn doesn’t mean learning to juggle, dancing a jig or even sharing jokes. I work hard to provide an experience that is like a pillar to lean on:
- It feels good to have someone who explains the process and how it helps you photograph in flattering ways
- I help you feel empowered the way a coach cheers you on, giving you techniques to use with proven results.
- I give you the tools and resources you need to succeed, and then I step back and let you do your thing.
- Just as my expertise can help you achieve the results you desire, my confidence allows you to shine in photos.
And the transformation you feel during the session is empowering. Now, that’s fun!

LinkedIn headshots outdoors for professionals on a budget
The Isle of Wight is an area of low incomes and most people make considered choices about their spending power. This is why I created the Headshot Days – a budget-friendly service for professionals who need an experienced photographer to help them take great headshots. I offer the following low-cost package for professionals on a budget: – 30 minutes of photography: £60 (reduced from £150).
The ‘Headshot Special’ for busy professionals is a 30-minute photoshoot that helps individuals maximize their time, save money and achieve their goals.
The express session is designed for busy professionals who want to learn how to take great headshots and overcome their camera phobia.
The experience offers short, supportive sessions that help participants learn how to take great photos, project confidence, and manage their nervousness.

The Headshot Special has helped many professionals achieve greater confidence at being photographed whilst producing improved headshots that showcase their personality.
