Hi guys!

I work at an office, and they requested that I take headshots at our holiday party. I have a camera, but have no idea how to take headshots. Are there any tips, videos, blogs, websites, etc. that you would recommend? I also have no lighting to use and am hoping that the natural lighting is good on the day of the event.

Thank you!

    It sounds like you are going to get set up for disappointment. Headshots should be consistent for everyone at the office. But …

    At a party, people are getting progressively more drunk.
    The indoor office lighting is rarely flattering.
    Natural lighting (assuming it is during the day) is always changing adding additional challenges to keep one head shot the same as the next.

    There is a YouTube channel with a good guide on “the Slanted Lens”. There are many more guides on YouTube for you to get the information you need.
