The Power of a Great Headshot : Why it Matters More Than You Think
When was the last time you updated your headshot?
Whether you're a business professional, creative artist, entrepreneur, or job seeker, your headshot is often the first impression people get of you. In our digital world, your photo shows up before you do - on Linked In, your company website, your email signature, or your social media.
Here's why investing in professional headshot photography is more important than ever...
- First Impressions Count - People often make snap judgements in a fraction of a second. A high quality, well lit and thoughtfully composed headshot immediately conveys professionalism, confidence and approachability.
- It Tells Your Story - Your headshot isn't just. picture - it's a visual representation of your personal brand. From wardrobe and lighting, to background and expression, everything can be tailored to suit the vibe you would like to present, be that corporate, creative, casual or somewhere in between.
- Builds Trust & Connection - Especially for entrepreneurs, coaches, consultants, or anybody who works closely with clients, a friendly and authentic headshot helps to build instant trust. People are more likely to engage when they can put a face to a name.
- Shows You are Serious About What You Do - If you're still using a cropped party pic or a blurry selfie from 5 years ago, it might be time to consider and upgrade. A professional headshot signals that you take your image and career seriously.
- It's Versatile - A great headshot can be used across many platforms - Linked In, your website, press, speaking engagements, Zoom & Teams profiles, even dating apps. 1 session can give you multiple looks for different needs.
