Headshots & Branding for a Powerful First Impression

Investing in professional imagery is an investment in your brand, your reputation, and your success. Increase your visibility, and open new doors with your newly elevated image.

Why invest in professional photos?

01 Make a powerful first impression

You wouldn’t go to a job interview in a suit that fit you ten years ago, so why do so many of us have decades-old headshots? Or even worse, none at all? Research tells us that we have 7 seconds to make a good first impression. A powerful, professional headshot that clearly communicates who you are is invaluable in the marketplace as it inevitably sets the tone for what people can expect from you moving forward. 

02 Differentiate yourself in a competitive market.

If you want to be the forerunner in your industry, it’s time to start thinking about the details. From the strength of your email signature, to the cohesion of your company-wide headshots, intentionality communicates that you will go the extra mile when no one else will. That’s who people want to work with.

03 Increase credibility & rapport.

Nothing says “I’m just starting out” like a low-quality headshot, website, or social media presence. And of course, the opposite is true as well. No matter how experienced you are, a polished set of professional imagery across all platforms communicates competence and naturally elicits trust.

04 Be prepared for media opportunities at any time.

You never know when you’ll have the chance to share about your work in an article, at a conference, on a podcast, etc. These opportunities are highly valuable, can be last minute, and often involve sending a headshot along to the organizer. Having a set of updated professional images at all times prepares you to make the most of these open doors at the drop of a hat.

05 Articulate your story.

When it comes to branding imagery, we all know the old saying: a picture says a thousand words. The images representing your brand, values, and accomplishments are crucial to telling your story in a compelling way. All your wording can be top notch, but if your images aren’t singing the same tune, that’s a problem we can help you solve.
