Legal Headshot FAQs
What background works best for lawyer headshots?
Neutral grey and softly detailed office settings are common choices. Use the firm's brand guidance, and make sure any environmental background stays readable without distracting from the face.
Should lawyers smile in their headshots?
Choose the expression that fits the firm's existing portraits and intended audience. A natural smile can feel open, while a neutral expression can feel more formal; neither communicates legal competence by itself.
