A place to politely discuss the tools, technique and culture of photography.

This is not a good place to simply share cool photos/videos or promote your own work and projects, but rather a place to discuss photography as an art and post things that would be of interest to other photographers.

Basic Headshot Tips (alien.top)

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!

Never do extra work for no pay

That's a capitalism lesson, not a photography one

Not all pay comes in dollars. That's a business lesson, not a capitalism one.

Still think this particular job sounds like a bad deal, though.

That's very true, however I feel like in this situation specifically there isn't anything else being offered as extra compensation...

I see you said this sounds like a bad deal, I missed that part, my bad!
