Typical yearbook photos

HEADSHOTS

Think of the close-up portraits often taken for professional or school profiles.

Yearbook photos usually feature close-up portraits of students, which are commonly called "headshots." The clue plays on the idea of the standard, typical images you’d find in a yearbook—just the head and shoulders, not full-body shots. It’s a straightforward definition with no wordplay, relying on the familiar term for these kinds of photos.
