I would like to do a photo for my CV, and I was wondering of what I can do to make it look the best. What are the important aspects to keep in mind?
Specifically:
- Focal length
- Lighting
- Background
- Crop
- Etc.
Edit: the original question asked about taking a self-portrait, which got some pretty strong "don't do that" responses. So, to expand the question: what if my friend took that advice against the DIY approach, and now I'm the one asked to take the resume portrait of someone else? How should I do it? Thanks!
