No problem! Choosing a background can be tricky, and we’re here to help.

Thanks to our 30-Day Happiness Guarantee, we’re happy to offer different background options for you to try before you approve your final headshot.

Here’s how it works:

  • When your headshot is ready for review, you’ll be able to request changes, including trying it out on different background colors.
  • Just let us know what you’d like to see, and we’ll send you alternate versions to compare.

Important: Once a headshot is approved, no further changes can be made, so be sure you’re happy with the background before clicking “I Like It.”

Still unsure? Feel free to reach out to us at hello@headshots.com. We're happy to make recommendations based on your skin tone, hair color, and clothing!
