Professional Business Portrait
Versus The Amateur
There is a valid reason why professionals hire professional portrait photographers to get professional business portraits. (Did we overemphasize the point?)
If you’re an amateur at your craft you might be thinking about getting a friend to take your head shot with their cellphone or even worse – use your selfie stick to do it yourself. Don’t cheap out.
Good work done by a skilled headshot photographer is a fine art. The back drop you choose for your half-body shot or portrait photograph could be plain or it can display a background that reveals who you are and what you do. There a lot of elements that go into creating professional business portraits including Facial Retouching. Not all headshot photographers can do that.
It should be framed from the chest up while you’re looking directly at the camera. Eye contact is crucial for a great looking professional business portrait. The lighting has to be set up correctly to avoid weird shadows that make you look older and maybe even sinister. Yikes!
Your professional business portrait is like a logo for your personal brand. Like a business logo, it will appear wherever you display your personal brand online: your LinkedIn and Twitter profiles, your blog, email signatures etc. just like your business logo, it's a good opportunity to use your headshot photographer to make a positive, lasting impression on your audience.
A corporate portrait photographer will pose you in a way to showcase the personality you want to show. That will make it noticeably memorable even as a small profile picture.
Before you pull out your selfie stick, ask yourself if you want professional business portraits or are you okay with settling for an amateur shot.
