Headshots for local businesses are a favorite project for mine, so today I’m taking time to answer some FAQs about business and corporate headshots. What’s involved? Is it hard to coordinate? Can we get this done quickly? Is it worth the effort?
1. What’s the process?
The process starts with you getting in touch with me either by email or phone. I’ll ask you how many people need headshots, where you’d like the headshots to take place (I usually come to your place of business) and send you a quote or price range. Once the quote is approved, I’ll set up a planning session with you so we can finalize all the details so we can create headshots that reflect the aesthetic of your brand. This planning session usually lasts about 30 minutes.
2. Is this hard to coordinate?
This is one of the benefits of hiring an experienced photographer – I know how to make the process go smoothly and with minimal impact to your workload.
3. Can we get this done quickly?
We usually hold the headshot sessions at company HQ for a 1 – 2 hour period over 1 or 2 days depending on your company size, work schedule, and preferences. Image turnaround time is about two weeks (rush is available with a fee).
4. Is it worth it?
Stepping outside of your busy routine to plan a photoshoot feels like a big step, but the feedback I get time and again is that it’s absolutely worth the time, effort and investment to do this.
Photographs are a key feature of a website, and your website communicates who you are and sets you apart from your competitors. Customers are more likely to trust you with their business, and it speaks better of your brand if you have excellent employee and CEO headshots. My photographs of you and your team will be expertly lit and look natural and approachable – never stiff or overly formal.
