Do High Quality Professional Headshots Benefit Your Brand?

 

In today’s fast paced, digital-first environment, the quality of your team’s professional Headshots is a powerful first impression.  Often, it is a visual first impression before the first phone call or meeting.  Many people think their Headshot is “just” a picture. I am here to tell you it is so much more than that.  When you make the decision to use a Professional Photographer for Headshots, you are making an investment in your Team and your Brand.

 

So—How Do High Quality Professional Headshots Benefit Your Brand?

• 

  Making the investment in professional Headshots benefits your Brand in many ways.

  1. Authenticity Is Key:  One of the easiest and best ways to build trust is to help people put a name to a face.  When you pair that with high quality photography, it also communicates that you take your business seriously and literally want to put your best face forward.

  

  Showing the real people behind the brand is a winning strategy.

• 2. There Are Real People Behind Your Brand.  In our fast paced and many times automated world, visual human connection is key. Again, high-quality Headshots will bridge the gap between your corporate logo and the employees customers will actually interface with.  It is very comforting to know there are real, live people they will be working with.  Make it easy for future clients to make the connection.
• 3. High Quality Headshots Signal Investment In Employees: To your employees you are communicating that you value their contributions enough to represent them professionally on your website and in marketing endeavors.  It is also a subtle way to signal to future employees that you are a stable company who values their workers.
• 4. Attention To Detail Stands Out: A cohesive, professional Headshot portfolio in your About section implies structure and attention to detail. It tells future investors, clients and employees that you pay attention to the small things that often go unnoticed in many other companies.  Bonus–Having a library of professional images will not only reinforce a unified look across all platforms, it will also make it easier and save time in the long run when a need arises for current images.
