Open collar, still hired
Casual headshots that still look employed.
A knit and an open collar can read as senior. A hoodie and a bathroom mirror cannot. The difference is light, not clothes.

Casual headshots are the most requested look after LinkedIn navy, and the most often ruined. Generators interpret casual as lifestyle influencer. The lab’s casual brief was a dark knit, an open collar, and a face that still belongs on a company site.
InstaHeadshots handled this brief cleanly and fast. AFFINCO10 applies. BetterPic added wardrobe variety that actually differed — useful if the same person also needs a blazer set from one session.
Backgrounds should be quiet. A brick wall is fine. A beach is not, unless the job is the beach. The 48-pixel LinkedIn circle does not care about a holiday.
Smile with the eyes. A full grin in a casual crop can look like a dating profile; a dead face looks like a passport. The keepers sat in between.
Hoodies lost. Every time. A collarless sweatshirt reads as a weekend. A knit with a shoulder line reads as a person who still takes meetings. That is the entire casual brief.
