Personal brands are more popular than ever before. Thanks to our current digital age, many people have been able to build personal brands – that often start online and then spill over into the “real” world – and these brands can be quite valuable. If you are thinking about having professional branding headshots taken to further your career or business, you’ve landed in the right place.
I have been taking branding headshots, in addition to many other kinds of photos, for my clients throughout the San Jose area for years. If you would like to schedule a session, or if you just have some questions for me to answer, feel free to reach out today.
The Power of Branding Headshots
So, why should you bother investing in branding headshots in the first place? These are valuable assets that can be used for marketing purposes in a number of applications. You will likely choose to display your new branding headshots on your website, and in your social media profiles – but that is just a starting point. If you print any promotional materials, you can use them there, as well, and you might even add one to your email signature line.
Choosing the Right Personal Branding Photographer
Getting the best possible results from your branding headshots will require working with an experienced professional in this space. Sure, virtually anyone can take a picture, but quality branding headshots require knowledge in many different areas, such as lighting, backgrounds, and more. Using a photographer who brings those skills to the table, and who will also listen to your input and adapt the process to make sure you are comfortable and happy with the finished product, is what will put your branding headshots over the top.

Creating the Perfect Branding Headshot
Believe it or not, one of the keys to getting a great branding headshot is the outfit you select for the shoot. Yes, the focus will be on your face in these pictures, but some of your clothing will still be visible. What you wear is going to have a great impact on how the branding headshots position you in the market, so decide if you want to look professional or casual and then pick clothing accordingly.
In addition to your wardrobe, your branding headshots will also be impacted by the background you select. We can take these photos in my private studio or we can pick one of the many great locations available around the San Jose area to complete the project.
Using Your Branding Headshots Effectively
You’ll want to start using your new branding headshots right away once they are completed and delivered. It will be a great feeling of pride to display these professional-quality images in a variety of different places and you’ll suddenly be making a great first impression with your prospective clients and customers. In addition to placing these photos in all of the standard places, pay attention to any opportunities that come along where they can be used to enhance your marketing efforts and grow your brand even further.
