Virtual headshot packages start at $100 · Live guidance via CLOS App · Photos delivered in 1–2 business days
The Shift
Work went remote. Your headshots should too. Your team may be spread across cities, time zones, and home offices — but your brand still needs to look consistent, professional, and real everywhere people see it.
The Old Model Doesn’t Fit
Traditional headshot studios ask teams to travel, block off large parts of the day, and still leave half the company without an updated professional headshot. That process was built for office-first teams — not for how remote companies actually work now.
A Better Way for Remote Teams
Virtual headshots solve this with a simple, scalable workflow. A professional photographer connects with each team member individually, directs the session live through their smart phone, and delivers polished, consistent company headshots — without asking anyone to visit a studio.
Real Photos, Not AI
Unlike AI headshots, these are real photographs of real people. Every facial expression, every angle, and every detail is captured live by a professional photographer. No synthetic faces. No uncanny valley. Just authentic headshot images that match how your team actually looks on Zoom, in meetings, and in person.
Your Digital Handshake
First impressions happen online now. A great headshot is your digital handshake — whether it appears on LinkedIn, your company website, internal tools, or team pages. Make it real, make it professional, and make it easy with virtual headshots from Match Production.

How It Works
How the Virtual Headshot Process Works
The entire process is designed to be simple for both individuals and remote teams. Here's how virtual headshots work, step by step:
Book & Prep
You pick a time, we send a detailed prep guide with outfit tips, posing advice, and lighting setup. The guide covers everything from how to find the best natural light in your space to what backgrounds work best. No special equipment needed — just your smart phone.
Live Photo Shoot
A professional photographer connects via the CLOS App, then coaches your pose, facial expression, and framing in real time through your phone's rear camera. Think of it as having a personal photographer in your pocket — guiding every shot, adjusting every angle, and making sure your headshot captures your best look.
Review & Delivery
Our editing team retouches every image and uploads the final photos to your private gallery within 1–2 business days. Each headshot is ready for LinkedIn, company websites, press kits, and team pages. Download in full resolution with unlimited usage rights.
Powered by CLOS App — the leading platform for virtual photoshoots, used by top brands and publications.

The Process from Start to Finish
The Complete Virtual Headshot Process
Here's what the entire process looks like, from booking to final delivery:
Choose your virtual headshot package — Mini, Standard, or Extended based on how many looks and images you need.
Book your session — pick a date and time that works. For team headshots, each team member books individually through a shared link.
Prep for your photo shoot — we send a detailed guide with helpful tips on clothing, lighting (natural light near a window works best), and background setup.
Join the live session — open the CLOS App on your smart phone, and your photographer will guide you through every pose, facial expression, and angle.
Select your favorites — review all captured photos in your private gallery. Choose the images you want retouched.
Receive your headshot — our editing team delivers the final retouched image (or images) within 1–2 business days. Upload them to LinkedIn, your company website, internal tools, or anywhere else.
Every step of the process is managed for you. For remote teams, we handle scheduling, reminders, and photo delivery so HR doesn't have to chase employees.
Quality & Editing
Studio Quality Headshots, From Your Phone
Modern smart phone rear cameras capture 36–48+ megapixels — more than enough resolution for any professional headshot. But hardware alone doesn't produce a great headshot. The real difference is professional direction: a photographer who knows how to coach posture, facial expression, and framing to capture your best look.
After the photo shoot, our editing team goes to work. Every headshot is individually retouched — skin tone, color balance, background consistency, and overall quality are all adjusted by hand. If you need us to whiten teeth or smooth skin, we handle it as part of the retouching process. Multiple angles and expressions are captured during every session, so you always have options. The final image is delivered at editorial standard — studio quality, not automated filters.
We also offer background replacement — whether you want a clean white backdrop, a natural setting, or a custom company background, our editing team can match it consistently across your entire team.
When Virtual Makes Sense (vs. Studio)
When Virtual Headshots Make More Sense Than a Studio
Choose Virtual Headshots When:
Your team is distributed or remote — team members across multiple locations
Ongoing onboarding — new employees and new hires need headshots monthly
No appetite for travel or coordination among remote employees
Busy schedules — each person's headshot session takes just 10–40 minutes
Quick headshot refresh needed for a company website or LinkedIn update
Choose Studio/On-Location When:
Environmental portraits needed in your office space
Full executive branding day with multiple setups and lighting
Complex backgrounds, backdrops, or props required
The team is co-located and available for a group photo shoot
Full editorial production with hair, makeup, and styling
Match offers both — seamlessly. Most photographers offer either studio headshots or virtual sessions. We're set up to do both, so your company and team always have the right option. That hybrid capability is what makes Match Production different from a typical headshot studio.
Why Not AI?
Real Photography, Not AI-Generated Headshots
AI headshot generators create synthetic images that are built from algorithms — you upload a few selfies and get back an image that might look polished but doesn't actually look like you. AI headshots don't match how your colleagues see you on Zoom. And increasingly, people can tell the difference.
Match Production delivers real photos taken by real photographers. Every session is live-directed, every image is an authentic capture of you — your face, your expression, your presence. For professionals and company teams where trust and credibility matter, authenticity isn't optional.
Virtual headshots give you the convenience of a remote session with the quality and integrity of real photography. It's the most cost effective approach to professional headshots that actually represent you.
Virtual Headshots for Remote Teams & Distributed Companies
Virtual Headshots for Remote Teams
Whether your company has five employees or five hundred team members, virtual headshots make team photography simple. One booking link goes out to the entire team. Each person picks their own time slot. Our photographer handles the rest — same style, same background, same professional quality across every headshot.
For HR and People Ops teams, this eliminates the biggest headache of company headshots: logistics. No conference room to book, no photographer travel to coordinate, no half-day blocks on everyone's calendar. New hires and new employees get their professional headshot during onboarding. Existing team members update theirs whenever they're ready — on their schedule, from wherever they work.
Virtual headshots for remote teams are the most cost effective way to keep your company looking consistent and professional. Distributed teams across multiple offices, remote employees working from home, contractors joining for a project — everyone gets the same studio quality headshot experience without stepping into a headshot studio.
How Team Headshot Sessions Work
Each team member receives a personal booking link and schedules their virtual headshot session at a time that fits their calendar. During the session, our photographer provides the same level of direction and coaching to every person — so your team headshots look consistent across backgrounds, lighting, and style.
After the photo shoot, our editing team processes and retouches each headshot to match your company's brand standards. Team managers can track progress through our dashboard. Final images are uploaded to a shared gallery where employees can review, download, and use their new headshots across all platforms and internal tools.
Team Headshot Packages & Pricing
Corporate headshot packages start from 5 people, with scalable pricing that gets more flexible as your team grows. Whether it's a rebrand, a new website, or quarterly updates for new employees and new hires, we'll keep your team looking sharp and consistent.
