My guarantee – if you’re not satisfied with your headshots, I’ll reshoot your session at no charge!
Whether you are a business owner or an employee working hard to grow your career, there are many different avenues you can take to pursue new opportunities. One of the most important pieces of this puzzle is figuring out exactly how you want to present yourself to the world. If you’ve been trying to make strides in this area lately, having professional business headshots taken is a great idea. Reach out today and let’s talk about how to bring this initiative to life.
For a little more motivation related to your idea of taking business headshots, here are four reasons to go through with this project.
First Impressions Matter – Make a Strong Professional Impact
Perhaps the strongest case for having business headshots taken is the ability to make a strong first impression in the digital world. When someone finds you somewhere online – such as on your website or a social media profile – you want them to see a picture that you would be proud to have representing you in a professional context.
There is a difference between a picture you’d be happy to share with friends or family members and a picture that you want to use to grow your business or career. Book a session with a photographer who can provide you with excellent business headshots and you’ll soon be making a great first impression across the web and beyond.
Craft a Personal Brand
Brand building is for more than just large corporations. Virtually anyone can invest time and effort into building a brand and having a strong brand will help with things like customer loyalty, recognition in the marketplace, and more. While having quality headshots is not an entire branding strategy all to itself, it is an important piece of the puzzle and will help you take other steps, as well. Make elevating your brand a priority in the months ahead and you might be surprised to find just how many opportunities come along as a result.

Building Valuable Trust and Credibility
Above all else, you want people to trust you in business. It doesn’t really matter what it is that you are trying to sell, or what kind of job you are trying to get, trust is essential. And, just like with building a brand, headshots aren’t the only thing that you need to establish trust, but they certainly do help. When you demonstrate to potential customers or employers that you care enough to invest in headshots and present yourself properly, the first step toward building trust will have already been taken.
Staying Relevant Over Time
We all age as the years pass, and that’s not a bad thing. It is reality, however, and if you don’t periodically update your headshots to reflect your current appearance, the disconnect between your headshots and your appearance could put some people off. So, as a general rule of thumb, if you want to keep your business relevant over time, make it a point to take new headshots every so often. There isn’t a specific timeframe that will apply to everyone, but if it has been more than a few years since your last round of headshots, now is the time to capture some new images.
There is no doubt that business headshots can be a valuable tool in your professional growth, but they will only reach their potential when taken by a qualified, experienced photographer. I’d love to play that role for you, so take a moment now to get in touch and let’s talk about your vision for this project. This is something I’ve done with countless previous clients and I’m excited to add your name to that list!
So please take a moment today to reach out and learn more about scheduling a session to take business headshots. I’d love to work together soon!
