I would have a professional do it. Selfies are too chancy and often too cheesy. That way you will have a nice professional photo that you can use for other things as well. Consider that you have only one shot at making a great first impression and a forum such as LinkedinIn goes out to millions of people so you want to look your best and to be taken seriously. Have a professional photographer do it. They will make you look your best. It's what I did.
I'm a writer and just had a photo done for my book's jacket. I had Jill Rosell in Bend and she was fantastic. I will use her wherever I need additional pictures for a media kit.

A professional photo is best however you can take a photo with your phone, not a selfie. Get someone else to take a good temporary one.

Most people do not use professional studio photos but it depends on your title and what imagine you want other business people to have of you
Just use your cell to take it. Make sure to take it in the light.

So long as it is professional looking.
All headshots must be done by a professional. If you look up, all professionals that are success have professional headshots.
Yes. You should take photo professionally to make it impressive.
