Where to use your professional headshots and personal branding photos?

This is one of the most often asked questions. Once I receive all of my professional portraits, what do I do with them? 

We all know the importance of a first impression, and in business, that is particularly true. Our digital persona is far more visible and has truly global reach, much more so than our physical one, so it is important to put your best “face” forward in efforts to project trust and credibility. Professional portraits align your personality and appearance with your digital persona in an appealing and authentic manner that conveys who you are to your existing and potential clients or collaborators. 

When was the last time you had professional headshots done?

Here is my list of places that you can use your professional headshots for business purposes and add value to the impression you are creating for your business.

  1. Your company website “About you” page
  2. Company directory
