Keys to a Successful Headshot

Getting a headshot done can be incredibly daunting whether you’re updating branding for the job search or required to get it done for work. A skilled professional photographer can put you at ease and help your true personality shine through. 

We always joke with our clients that the first key is to look like you don’t hate your job. Prospective clients and job recruiters alike look for high quality, up-to-date headshots as a reflection of professionalism and competency. There are tangible benefits to featuring a professional headshot front and center on websites like LinkedIn: those who have a headshot on their profiles receive 21 times more profile views than those without.

These days, every player in the game is representing themselves first and foremost with a friendly and inviting profile photo. It is often your first impression on someone after all! The purpose of professional branding photography is to clearly portray who you are and what you do. When personality and charisma stand out in your photo, it shines through to your business as well.

A professional headshot unlocks the door to more engagement in your brand and more interest in who you are and what makes you successful. A professional photographer can hand you the keys!
