6 Uses for a Professional Personal Portrait PhotographLifestyle photography isn’t just for special occasions: You can utilize professional photography for personal portrait photos that enhance your everyday life. Professional head shots are not just for actors and models; you can use a beautiful professional photo of yourself to enhance your career, personalize your daily communications, elevate your online persona, and more. If you’re a company owner or blogger, a professional portrait is a must-have to spruce up your website. Everyone can benefit from a nice head shot for personal use.

6 Uses for a Professional Portrait Photo

1. Update your company’s about page: Do you own your own company, have a blog, or appear on your employer’s website? Make the website look more professional with a professionally shot portrait photo.

2. Make your LinkedIn profile more polished: If you’re job-hunting or you often make work connections on the professional social network LinkedIn, you can make your profile look  more polished by adding a professional head shot. This small detail instantly makes your profile look more impressive.

3. Update your social media accounts: Stop hoping you’ll snap a profile picture-worthy snapshot during a night on the town or family event; instead, guarantee you have a like-worthy social media profile picture with a professional head shot. This especially comes in handy if you have a popular following, you utilize social media in your career, or you’re applying to jobs and know recruiters may be in search of faux pas on your accounts.

4. Personalize your professional or personal email: Put a face to your emails. You can adjust your signature on your professional or personal email to include a snapshot. If you use Gmail for your email, it’s also important to update your profile picture, as it shows up every time you send an email. Add more polish to your online correspondence with a pro shot.

5. Enhance your sorority recruitment recommendations: Sorority recruitment is a major endeavor at many universities, especially in Southern states like Texas. Enlist a Dallas photographer to snap professional head shots to share when you request recommendations from sorority alumnae or when you send in your recommendation letters to sorority chapters at your college.

6. Impress on dating websites: Make yourself stand-out amongst a sea of eligible bachelors and bachelorettes by updating your online dating profile with a professional portrait that shows your best side.
