How many of you update your business portrait every year? I am very guilty of NOT doing this. I prefer to be behind the camera, not in front, as in reality, I do not photograph well. I have some issues that will be very prominent if the person behind the camera just snaps a quick shot. I need someone with experience to make my image worth seeing.
The last time I had an image taken was almost three years ago, and I was so excited when I saw it. The photographer knew what she was doing, and did not emphasize the parts of me that were very flawed. In other words, she was a professional who knew about posing, lighting, and camera settings. I wish I lived closer to Texas because that is where the photographer who photographed me lives!
Regardless, it is time for ME to update my image. What about you?
Below are two different types of business portraits. The first two are of Sandra, taken here at the studio in Oswego. She runs Harmony Aesthetics in Yorkville and needed a few personal branding images for her website. One that is more carefree and another that is more business formal.
The third image was also taken here at the studio of Rob, who needed one 8x10 print to hang in the VFW Hall as he is the commanding officer of that post. So, two different scenarios and purposes for Business Portraits are shown in these images.
The images below are examples of basic head shots for use on a website, linkedin, or facebook. And, as you can see, you can have Business Portraits taken with your co worker!
Most of these images were taken at our studio in Oswego, but one was taken at an event in Sugar Grove, IL. Often, we work with other companies who host a head shot event for their employees, or for vendors and friends who work with the hosting company. We have traveled as far as Broadview, IL for a one day event. That day, the company managers were flying in from all over the country for a meeting. It was the only time they would be together, so what better day to have a Head shot event. Those images were to be used on their website, for marketing purposes, and for use at speaking events.
So, as you can see, there are many purposes for Business Portraits-not just a basic head shot for your facebook business page!
