What Makes a Good Headshot? Part 5

Research

I online stalk you, but without all the creepy connotation. 

Already Famous!
When you email me for info on a shoot, I look you up online; your website, your imdb, everything, to get an idea of who you are. I look at your makeup, your clothes and styles. I see the tools you're working with, and can get a pretty good idea of who you are, who you're trying to be, and what you need to accomplish that. When I see you in person for the first time, I already know who I'm working with; I recognize you. 

You're already famous to me. I'm shooting a celebrity's headshot!
