Getting Business Headshots when Looking for or Starting a New Position

As a Dallas headshot photographer, I help people get headshots - not just any photo headshot, but headshots strategically designed to help them either to get a new job position, or once they have their new job position.

Dallas Best Professional Business Headshots with expert photo retouching

For your business headshot to deliver maximum value, it has to show you in the right light, so to speak. When job seeking and when starting a new corporate job, your headshot may have different considerations. Let's talk about it.

Dallas Business Headshots when Staring a New Position:

Congrats on your new role. Now is a key time where it is important to get an image of yourself (for LinkedIn, for the company website, etc.) to show yourself to your new colleagues and clients alike - one that gets respect, and shows you as competent and ready to make a difference.

Respect is indeed key in a new position. You need respect to get things done, to having your voice be heard. To have any influence and path to positive advancement. A properly-taken, professional headshot shows that you take this position seriously, so your colleagues will take you seriously as a result.

For Help Landing Your First Real Job after College Graduation:

Another very smart time to purchase professional business headshots is upon college graduation. This is the time you are going after that first "real job in the real world" so to speak. Again, being respected is priority and being seen as able to responsibly tackle your job duties - this is what puts you out in front of your competition.

All your schooling work, maintaining a high GPA, it all comes down to the quality of job/career you've positioned yourself for. Now the final key step is your business photo (corporate headshot) to help consummate a desirable job offer. People who present a professionally taken headshot of themselves will be taken much more seriously, regardless of what is written in their resumé.

So give yourself every advantage and invest in your own success. www.DallasBusinessHeadshots.com booking at 877-858-0071.

Contemporary vs Old Style Business Headshots in Dallas, TX

Older Style Dallas Business Headshot 

As a Dallas, TX headshot photographer, I get many kinds of photography requests, for many styles and industries where professionals need to look right to their respective audiences. To keep this short, our first example is common for an older style of headshots. It is subjective, so there is not just one right or wrong choice, but the trend is for a lighter headshot, more open and airy. 

This headshot with the blue background shows an older style. It is more reserved, more formal, more conservative. The headshot with the light grey background is more contemporary. It has a lighter feeling, clean, crisp with nothing to hide. This visually communicates authenticity and signals to the viewer that you are welcoming. It is safe to reach out and do business with you, knowing you straightforward - a person of your work.

Different industries can lean towards one or the other appearance. And we're just talking about studio headshots here, not outdoor or on-location photoshoots. A more serious industry, like litigation attorney or security, might benefit from the heavier and more formal look. While a public-facing professional businessperson might want to emphasize being welcoming and approachable.

Contemporary Style Headshot

If you are in sales, for example, you want a headshot that people feel they can connect with and agree with. A photo that makes them feel like saying YES to you. Likewise, with real estate (commercial or residential), as an agent, you want to emphasize how approachable you are.

In either style of headshot, I deliver the pose needs to be just right, being careful to not make the next look too thick. You want the jawline to be distinct as well.
