Setting yourself apart in a globalized world is no easy task; especially, in a competitive corporate arena. A
professional headshot photographer captures your essence and combines the experience you're looking for with your vision and expectations.
No matter the industry, here are eleven reasons an attuned and knowledgeable commercial headshot photographer is the right choice for your corporate, business and executive headshot photos:
1. Get Hired
According to Careerbuilder.com, 36% of people hired by an employer was in part due to a professional image. That means, not only do images influence your online persona, it also affects your ability to get hired.
2. Relate
People want to see the face behind the operations, who they're doing business and who sets the direction. A photographer dedicated to her craft connects the executive's personality with the company's image while ensuring the photo conveys thoughtfulness, responsibility, and diligence.
3. Inspire
The executive's role is leading the company, and professional photographs reinforce that impression. More often than not, when we look our best, we feel our best. Sharing a professional quality image can boost confidence and inspire ways to overcome challenges.
4. Build Trust
Professional headshots reach peers authentically through imagery showcasing who you are now - in real-time. A profile photo from 10 years ago is a sure-fire way to disconnect and give a reason for people to question your trustworthiness.
5. Open Doors
How you present yourself face to face is critical in business, and when in-person meetings are not possible, good headshots can represent that dynamic. Give investors and potential clients a way to know you without meeting you personally. Express warmth with your smile or convey determination with a serious look, while portraying professionalism that makes it easier to land that first meeting.
6. Attract People & Ideas
Lighting can be the difference between looking approachable or not receptive to innovative ideas that could propel your business to the next level. Studio lighting offers your photographer more control of light and shadow to obtain a natural, engaging look.
7. Be Memorable
Surveys suggest people are six times more likely to remember your profile when accompanied by a photo. After all, 75% of us are considered visual learners.
8. Be Your Best
Let's face it, even CEO's and executives can become a bundle of nerves in front of a camera. A skilled photographer guides you through the process of building the confidence needed to capture your best self in front of the camera.
9. Be Authentic
You want to look like yourself, and a professional photographer has the expertise to ensure your photos represent you in your truest and most natural form. She provides you with clean, sharp images with a professional-grade camera to ensure genuine representation.
10. Get Promoted
Not having professional headshots puts you a tier below those that do. Investing in professional headshots gives you a distinct edge against the competition and plants confidence in your professional capabilities.
11. Maximize ROI
How many online profiles or media outlets do you use a picture to represent yourself? In terms of getting the most for your buck, chances are you'll use headshots across a multitude of platforms, be they online or for in-person business conferences.
