How do real estate teams get matching headshots?

Choose one background, one dress level and one framing for everyone, and have each agent use them. With one-selfie headshots, every agent can match on their own time.

What background is best for brokerage headshots?

A plain studio background (warm cream or clean gray) is the safest because it prints clearly on signs. A bright home interior works well on the website if everyone uses it.

How do new agents match the old photos?

They pick the same background and outfit the team already uses. Keep those choices in a shared note so anyone can match them later.

Can we make a group photo without getting everyone together?

Yes. A team account can combine individual headshots into one group photo in an office lobby, a conference room or a studio.

Do agents need to be in the office?

No. Each agent takes a selfie wherever they are and comes out in the team's style.

Brokerage Team Headshots: How to Get Every Agent Matching

The short answer: pick one background and one dress level for the whole brokerage, write them down, and have every agent use them. That's what makes a team page look like one company.

Most brokerage 'Our Agents' pages are a patchwork: one studio portrait, a few phone selfies, a cropped wedding photo and a gray silhouette for the new agent. It's not a quality problem, it's a consistency problem.

Here's how to fix it once, and keep it fixed as agents join and leave.

Why matching photos matter for a brokerage

Clients often browse your agents before choosing one. When every photo matches, the brokerage looks established and organized. When they don't, even great agents look like they work in different places.

Matching photos also help your marketing: team flyers, social posts and your website all look planned rather than pieced together.

Step 1: Decide the style once

Three decisions cover almost everything. Make them once, as a team, and share them.

Background: a plain studio (warm cream or clean gray) is the safest, because it prints well on signs. A bright home interior feels more 'real estate' on the website.
Dress level: all blazers is the usual choice. Some luxury teams go with suits; some relaxed teams choose smart casual.
Framing: chest up, face centered, looking at the camera.

Step 2: Why photo days don't solve it

A photo day works once. Then someone was sick, someone was at a closing, and three new agents join next quarter. Six months later the page is mixed again.

The fix is a style anyone can match on their own time, from anywhere, the day they join.

Step 3: Let every agent match from one selfie

With Headshotsly, each agent uploads one clear selfie and picks the team's outfit and background. Everyone comes out in the same look, and new agents match the set on day one.

Each photo is made from that agent's own selfie and keeps their face as it is, so clients meet the person on the page.

Step 4: Set up the team account

An individual agent can buy the one-time pack on their own. To invite the whole brokerage with one link and see everyone's photos in one place, you need a team account. The Small Team plan covers the owner plus up to 3 people; the Professional plan has no member limit. The teams page has the details.

From the team account you can also make a group photo from individual headshots, in an office lobby, a conference room or a studio, without getting everyone in one room.

Headshots and photos of agents at work

Matching headshots cover the team page, signs and cards. For listing marketing and social posts, photos of agents at work do a different job: an agent at an open house, handing over keys, or meeting a client.

Each agent can make these from the same selfie, in the same team style, so the brokerage's social feed looks as consistent as its website.

Listing flyers and social posts: open house or handing-keys photos
Your About page: a group photo of the team

Step 5: Keep it consistent over time

Write the style down in your onboarding checklist: background, outfit, framing. When an agent joins, they upload a selfie in their first week. When someone changes their look, they update their photo the same way.

Add 'headshot' to every new agent's first-week checklist
Replace photos when agents change their look, not just when they join
Use the same photo on the agent's signs, cards and profile

What it costs

For one agent, 5 photos in 4K cost $0.99, one time. Team plans are on the teams and pricing pages. Compared with a photo day, the biggest saving is usually time: nobody has to be in the same place at the same hour.
