It’s said that you only have one chance to create a first impression, and that’s no less true in the business world than in your private life. On your website, Facebook business page, Linkedin profile and even on your business card, your photograph is the first thing people will notice before they read anything about your skills, experience or qualifications.

So if that’s true, why would you want that photograph to be less than a perfect representation of the person you want to present to your clients and colleagues? Does that photo you’ve cropped out of a wedding group, or the selfie you took in a bar on the beach really say ‘professional’? We’ve seen many poor or inappropriate photographs used in a business context – and we guess you have too.

Surely it would make more sense to have a headshot or portrait that was carefully planned, well lit and edited just so? One that puts across the sort of person you are – whether that be confident, relaxed, assertive, formal or fun?

I will help you think through the images you need, then I’ll shoot them in my Bury photography studio, in your home, at your workplace or on location – whatever is the most appropriate.
