Head shot
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
- This article is about a photographic technique, for the bullet injury or internet catchphrase see headshot.
A Head shot is a photographic technique where the focus of the photograph is a persons face. A head shot is front on (facing straight at the camera) photograph, with the face being the centre of the picture and containing minimal or no surroundings. Head shots are not usually used for artistic purposes, rather as a form of identification. Head shots are most commonly used as passport photo's, mug shots and on other forms of photo identification. Actors or models often include a head shot, along with other photographs, when applying for a job.
