Can a photo help me land the best RESIDENCY or fellowship?

Branding really does work for people not just products. Having a modern and high production value headshot can help convince someone that you will be the perfect fit for their hospital or organization. You dont have to look like a super model, simply having a photo with great lighting and the know how of a seasoned photographer can really give you an edge over the rest.

Actual case studies

Pubmed.gov analyzed ERAS photographs submitted by residency applicants based on photograph characteristics related to composition, attire, facial expression, hairstyle, and accessories.

What was found

Candidates that chose a white background over grey gave their photo a sense of clean and modern that made them appear to be more professional and commercial. This look was first made popular by the many apple commercials and has been adopted my some of Americans largest and most widely trusted brands. It was also noted that students who smiled and wore jackets in their photographs were more likely to be match. Gender specific characteristics were not found to be influential in the match outcome for applicants.

eras photo requirements 2022

Your photo should include your full shoulders but they will still except it cropped like the example above. It's always better to have the photographer take a wider shot so you can crop it after to make sure you meet the taller height of the 3.5'" portion of the photo. Many students ask if it must be only forward facing like a passport photo and the answers is no, just make sure your dont do more than a 15 degree angle like all the photos on this page.

A photo file should not exceed these requirements:

Only photos with a lot of colors will be saved at the full 100kb. If you are wearing only 3 colors its perfectly normal to be 55-80kb in size. (Resolution will still be a full 150DPI)

1)Bright lighting looks bests! it's always better to be a little over exposed than un exposed (darker) This will show way more face blemishes and have a muddy effect.

2) White background tends to have a more professional and modern feel. Grey was very popular in the 80s and 90s and can come across as dated.

3) Even if you take the photo yourself, Make sure you hire someone with Experience to properly compress your photo, Because this photo is so small and dimensions are not meant to be zoomed it's crucial to have a properly compressed so that it looks its best.

Conclusion

Certain characteristics of a ERAS photo were found to be associated with a more favorable matching outcome. Having a flattering photo can be a great tool to improving your odds and help you stand out from the much.

I was late to my appointment with Nick but fortunately he was still able to accommodate me kindly. I came in for an ERAS medical residency picture and he guided me with great detail (I don’t know anything about headshots so I appreciated it). He’s very professional and I could tell he puts in a lot of work to create a good business too. I’d recommend him to everyone!

Nick has great pricing and very flexible with timing, especially for a busy medical student schedule. Would recommend for anyone applying for Residency.

My husband and I took headshots at Redleaf for our medical residency applications. Nick was incredibly kind and helpful and his prices are unbeatable! I would recommend him to any medical student who is looking for an ERAS pic.

Fast, professional and skilled. Nick made my medical residency application headshots easy and affordable.

Nick was awesome! I needed photos for my residency application and he was quick and I received a link to my photos within 10 minutes of leaving the studio! Pricing was reasonable and unlike many places he gives you access to all your photos from the shoot without watermarks. Highly recommend.

I came to Nick to do my ERAS/Residency headshot and I couldn't have been more pleased! He was very professional and kind throughout the entire shoot. He stops in between multiple times to let you see the pictures and will help you to pick the best headshots for your needs. I was sent the photos from the shoot within 1 hour of leaving (actually on my drive home). His prices are very reasonable and I recommend him for anyone that needs headshots done.

Positive: Professionalism, Quality, Responsiveness, Value

Great photo studio. I had an amazing and professional. Nick is a very experienced photographer and knew exactly what I needed for my residency application. He was thorough and the price was very good, I also got the pictures super fast. I would absolutely recommend!!

Nick was very helpful in guiding me through the process of a successful photoshoot and made sure I left with pictures that I was happy with. I highly recommend his services, especially for residency photos.

Nick was amazing! He explained what was going to take place and executed the shoot. I needed professional head shots for my residency application and I was able to review them before leaving the studio and with the next hour my photos were available. He takes plenty of photos from different angles so you’re able to choose the one to your liking.

I was having my ERAS picture taken for medical residency. Nick was excellent! He was very thorough in the beginning and explained out each of the shots would work. He stopped multiple times throughout the shoot to let me look and decide what I liked and didn't like. I did not feel rushed for time at all and the pictures looked great! I highly recommend! He has the most affordable price!

Nick is amazing! I really did not like the previous headshot that I did and found Studio Redleaf after searching for a photographer that could do medical residency headshots. Being a broke med student, I really did not want to pay $300+, but Nick charges $125 for ERAS/VSAS photos. He is truly a professional. I never once felt rushed and he allowed me to take my time and fix my hair/makeup right before the shoot. What I liked most is how detail-oriented he is - from fixing my necklace to my shirt to even the tiny little stray hairs that were popping out. We tested around with different angles and different smiles and every so often, he'd let me look at the photos and choose which ones I liked and we tried to do a few more of those exact ones. In the end, I walked out with 70 photos to choose from, and he even asked me if I wanted to take more. He was super receptive to what I wanted, enthusiastic, and professional. He sends the photos within an hour, but if you check in on FB, he'll send you the pics within 10 min. I'm so happy with my new headshot and glad I came to studio redleaf!

After doing quite a bit of shopping around for a good photographer for residency photos, I finally decided on Studio Redleaf and I'm so happy that I did! Nick is an excellent photographer and really knows how to bring out the best look for your photo. His attention to detail and friendly nature made for a casual and enjoyable photo shoot. I am so happy with my photos, and best of all, they were sent to me within 30 minutes of my photo shoot! I highly recommend Studio Redleaf photography to anyone looking to take professional photos. You will not be disappointed!

I used Redleaf for residency headshots and it was a great experience. Very easy online booking, parking in the building, and the shoot itself was stress free. I was given clear, professional advice about how to pose and he adjusted his style throughout the session to fit my needs. Excellent experience. Highly recommend, especially for ERAS photographs.

Response from the ownera year ago

Thank you Laura, it was great working with you. You were very helpful on your feedback during the shoot. Congrats on your new position!

Nick was awesome to work with and the photos turned out great! I got professional headshots for medical residency and I felt very happy with the end results.

I went to Studio Redleaf for my graduation and residency head shots. Overall, it was a wonderful experience! Nick is very professional, thorough and patient. He made sure I parked in the proper location to avoid getting towed. Nick guides you every step of the way never doubting whether you missed any angles. I felt natural being in front of a camera again.

He ensures comfort and relaxation by letting you play a playlist on Alexa. Nick is also very fast. My photos were waiting for me in my inbox when I got home. He is affordable, reliable and provides a fun environment. I raved about his work to my colleagues seeking head shots for their applications to the upcoming Match season. I highly recommend Studio Redleaf for any occasion.

HIGHLY recommend Nick at Studio Redleaf, he is a superb photographer with over 15 years experience who knows his profession well. He took wonderful professional photos that show my best side. He takes his time for light and clothing adjustments so you look perfect. Very easy to work with and absolutely worth it! I had the residency headshot package which is exactly what I needed, multiple photos with different angles and facial expressions, plus extras for the future. He even does touch ups on your favorite one. I was blew away with the great, fast service and quality of my photos. Pay a little extra than JC Penny or Walmart photo and LOVE your headshot!!

Just had a photo shoot with Nick! It was a great experience!

I ordered a medical residency headshot for $125 and more than happy with the results. My goal was to get a nice professional headshots as soon as possible for a nice price. I saw a lot of offers from other studios for $30 or $40 but after that I found that it is only for 1 retouched image. Nick sent me all photos in 20 minutes after the shooting. He also offering retouching of any image you want, During the shooting he was very friendly, professional and I did not feel any anxiety.

Pros: Great and fairly price service, quick response, great variety of welcome drinks (sodas, coffee), free parking.

Cons: Was a bit difficult to find parking entrance due to wrong GPS location, but they were provided precise explanations with google maps links.

Nick is very patient and professional. I had my residency application headshot there. He gave me a lot a advices during the whole session. I get all the shots immediately after via Dropbox. Great job!

Nick took excellent very professional photos in his studios. He was also a very nice person. I highly recommend him for interview pictures including for Medical residency interviews! Thanks again Nick.
