Why You Should Always Have a Professional Headshot On Hand

When it comes to today's digital world, it is necessary to have an up to date headshot on hand that is ready to use.

I cannot tell you how many inquiries come in for headshots from people needing them yesterday. There have been so many times where someone was given almost no notice that their headshot is needed for a bio on a company website, or a publication needs an image and the due date is imminent.

In these cases, if you don't already have a professional headshot ready to go, you may end up having to use a snapshot, selfie, or outdated image - none of which reflect your professionalism.

While turnaround time for headshot images is quick, at 1-3 days typically, there is no guarantee that there will be availability for a session and images delivered the same day you call to request it.

I say all of this to urge you to go ahead and take care of making sure you have a professional and up to date headshot, because sooner or later (probably sooner!) you are going to need one.

The process for getting up to date headshots with me is so easy and there's no reason to put it off any longer. Save yourself the stress of rushing around hoping for availability and being in a time crunch - let's talk today!
