Business Headshot Portraits

                      So what are the top 7 reasons to hire a professional to do your headshot?

1. Professionalism. First and foremost it gives you credibility and professionalism. Potential clients, investors and collaborators who find you online, either on LinkedIn or website or even facebook are more likely to take you seriously.

2. First Impressions. Did you know that we are judged by someone in a little more than 10 seconds of meeting or being seen? As unbelievable as this seems, don’t you agree it a good idea to take advantage of those seconds and put your very best self forward? Put your best self out there.

3. Personality! Show it off. A good headshot will give your potential customers and idea of who you are, a great smile can go a long way.

4. Confidence. A great headshot will help you feel confident and professional when you are calling on a potential client. You'll take yourself seriously and others will, too. A great headshot ensures you're making the best impression possible, which makes you feel good about your personal brand and what other professionals are thinking when they see your image. Looking the part is just as important as playing the part, and a high-quality headshot helps you look the deal whether you're just starting your career or you're navigating the boardroom.

5. Career Growth. A great profile photo on LinkedIn will set you apart from the competition. Believe it or not, you can’t imagine how many people just do a selfie in the mirror or snip an image from their social media. This is not a good way to show who you are or what you are about. Remember, your photograph is your first line of introduction, make it great! It is also a great visual reminder for others as to who you are when you meet them in person.
