Where is the best place to take a headshot?

The best place to take professional looking Headshots is in a studio with large windows. The reason is because of he natural light they give and the shield from inclement weather.

When you shoot outdoors, you get great natural light but if it's raining, you won't have good looking pictures, especially since you'll be trying to cover the camera from the rain.

On the other hand, shooting indoor Headshots without natural light is not going to work either because you'll end up having subjects that look too posed, like a high school graduation shot. Remember that the key to a great headshot is naturalness.

I recommend finding yourself a room with big windows and setting up some nice backgrounds. Then use this location as a backup place if the outdoor weather is bad. You'll get the best of both worlds and every headshot client you have will be satisfied!
