First Headshot Session in the new Smiths Falls Studio

John shared with me that his teenage daughter questioned him as to “Why?” he needed a headshot.

It’s a fair question.

Blink The Power of Thinking Without Thinking, by Malcolm Gladwell, answers this question in great detail (I highly recommend it) and I’ll summarize my takeaway as it relates to why people need professional headshots:

1. We live in an overstimulated world and people make snap judgments based on appearance

2. Like it or not, that judgment becomes your brand

3. Your brand, starts with a professional profile image (a headshot) that projects your professionalism, friendliness, and competence that you share on your website and social sites

In the words of Doc Brown from the Back to the Future trilogy:

“Your future is whatever you make it, so make it a good one.”
