5 Reasons Why You Need a Professional Headshot
Over the past year, I’ve received many calls from individuals looking for a professional headshot. A top-quality, professional headshot is an investment in your individual brand. It shows you at your absolute best — the way you want your colleagues or potential clients to see you. Yes, many of us may not be naturally camera-friendly. As a result, a novice photographer can end up making you look nothing like you actually do in-person. Even worse off, you may not look your best.
EAPhoto specializes in headshots. We know how to position you, how to lay the best backdrop and how to utilize lighting to get the best shot possible. Headshots aren’t just for presidents and CEOs anymore. Showcase your professionalism with a winning professional photo. Here are a number of reasons you should:
Look the Part
Simple said, if you want to be treated like an expert at your craft, you must look like an expert in your craft. Stay professional. Stay classy.
Take Yourself Seriously
A professional headshot is a very small investment in something that can help to open so many doors down the road. It shows that you take yourself and your career seriously.
Stand Out
As significant as a professional headshot is to landing your dream job, many individuals still rely on poor quality cell phone photos for their LinkedIn, Facebook and professional photo. That alone makes potential recruiters, employers, and contacts take a closer look if you’re sharing a photo that’s high-resolution and visually pleasing.
Stay Top of Mind
A stand-out professional photo allows people to put a face to a name, which means you are more likely to stay top-of-mind to the important people who search your name, look you up, and decide if they want to make that oh-so-important call.
Make it Matter
This is a fast-paced, digital world we find ourselves in. Contacts are often too busy to read more than a few lines of your resume. A professional headshot is your best chance to make an instant (and positive) first impression.
As you can tell, a professional headshot is truly priceless. It is your brand and your first line of introduction — your inaudible elevator pitch. Make it a quality one.
