Beyond The Thumbnail Headshot
Have you wondered why it is that you need more than a simple Headshot for your website? Is a branding portfolio even worth your time and investment? Well, the answer to these very common questions is this - The traditional old-fashioned Headshot is all about the first impression. It focuses mostly on your eyes, your smile and your connection with the audience. Beyond that, the rest of your branding portraits are about raising the interest level. They capture your personality, project your confidence, communicate your expertise and authority in your field and engage your client so that you can ultimately build trust with them and most importantly, each branding portrait serves a unique purpose.
