Investing in your image is the last thing you want to do, but by far the most important.
A good professional photographer is worth their weight in gold, and even if you’re not in business, if you’re on the job market, it can make a massive difference to whether people pick up the phone to talk to you, or send you that email that could mean a very lucrative oportunity for you.
You don’t get second chances to make a first impression, so make sure you show yourself in your best possible light, especially when you are likely to often be “meeting” people for the first time online these days. A professionally taken headshot is vital! It shows people that you care about the details, and how you appear to others. It doesn’t look cheap, it looks professional, captures me in a positive light, and creates a good first impression.
Your headshot is often the first contact people have with you, especially now we’re all so active on social media (If you’re not, and you’re in business, you need to be!). If your headshot isn’t professional, it doesn’t help people warm to you, it doesn’t inspire confidence in you, it doesn’t help people trust you. If your business is professional, and has professional standards, and your headshot doesn’t then it indicates an incongruence. For example, this About Us page is stronger because of their corporate business photos done recently by Twirl Photography.
My goal when photographing business portraits and headshots is to create timeless and flattering images. I love incorporating our beautiful New Orleans scenery to help capture authentic moments.
