Reasons for Company Headshots

Company headshots are good business.  There are a few reasons why a professional headshot is necessary in today’s marketplace.

The Digital Handshake

The company headshot, known as the digital handshake, is possibly your first impression with the recruiter, the corporate partner, the business associate, or client.  A professional headshot creates a fantastic first impression because it is current, professional, and confident.  Without even meeting a person face-to-face, the headshot puts a visual image of you in this person’s mind.  Upon meeting you, the relationship can build on this solid foundation.  This is another reason why a CURRENT headshot is so important.  It should look like you and represent who you are.

Brand Building

For small business, YOU are your company and your brand.  What better way to build your brand than to put a face to the company.  People do business with people.  Customers, clients, and business associates need to see you.  A professional headshot is an opportunity to further build your brand and its awareness in the community.  Get yourself out there and build the brand!

Networking

Social media sites like LinkedIn are professional business sites.  Networking on these sites encourages business with friends and acquaintances.  Whether you are looking for a job or looking for a business partner or just looking to stay current in your field, a professional headshot sets the stage for this business relationship.  A selfie or a cut-out from a group photo is not a professional headshot and should not be considered a professional profile picture for business sites like LinkedIn.  Get a professional headshot and stay in the game!

Headshots for Abercrombie & Associates

I had another successful round of headshots with Abercrombie & Associates.  As new employees come on board, they have a professional headshot session with me.  Abercrombie & Associates is an accounting firm.  They value a professional headshot since their clients want to see the person with whom they are working.  I’m also a client of theirs and I like to know who’s working on my taxes.  Just seeing a face to put with the name helps put me at ease and gives me confidence in my relationship with my accountant.

If you’ve ever wondered what actually happens during a branding session… this is it 😅

It’s not just about getting great photos — it’s about creating an experience where you can show up, relax, and let your personality come through.

The truth is...

Different images serve different purposes. The photo you use for LinkedIn might not be the same one you use for a speaking engagement, your website, or a personal brand feature.

Your audience, your industry, your role, and the message you want to communicate all influence how your images should look and feel.

That’s why thoughtful, intentional branding photography makes such a difference. When your photos align with your goals, they start working for you — helping you build trust and credibility before you ever say a word.

If you're in need of a headshot refresh, I'm your girl 😉

The difference between good branding photos and great ones..?

Your wardrobe strategy.

Every outfit in a branding session should have a purpose. Different looks help you show different sides of your brand — and give you images you can use across your website, social media, speaking engagements, and more.

Carrie absolutely nailed it with her wardrobe choices for this session. ✨

The photos might look polished…
but behind the scenes there’s a lot of laughing, hyping clients up, and figuring out the best angles together.

Branding sessions should feel relaxed, collaborative, and honestly… pretty fun.

This is what it really looks like on set. ✨

Everyone says “I’m not photogenic”… until they’re actually in front of a camera with someone who knows how to pose them.

A little direction. A little encouragement. A few tiny adjustments…and suddenly they’re like, “Wait—THAT’S me?”

You don’t need to be photogenic.
You just need support.
