Expert LinkedIn Profile Photography for Career Success
LinkedIn Profile Photography
Over the last few years, we have been highlighting the value of professional LinkedIn profile photography. It’s still common to see business professionals using family snapshots or poorly captured portraits on their LinkedIn pages. Many believe that since it’s quick and easy to update a picture, any digital image will suffice temporarily. However, while clients may spend hours crafting a compelling LinkedIn profile description and showcasing their achievements, they often overlook that the first thing potential clients notice is their headshot. A strong, professional image makes a lasting first impression.
Professional LinkedIn Profile Photo Headshots
Stand out in a crowded marketplace with the best LinkedIn profile photos
As we provide a professional LinkedIn photographer service, we suggest that clients give their profile photos some thought and extend their marketing budget to include a commissioned LinkedIn headshot. Before hiring a portrait photographer, you need to decide on what image you want to put across on LinkedIn and take into consideration your business and your professional personality.
There are three main LinkedIn Profile Photo styles you can select from.
The first option (a good photo for LinkedIn) is a studio-style photography session using professional lighting. You can commission a photographer whose portfolio you prefer, and they will shoot your portrait using studio lighting with a plain background at your offices. This gives you plenty of control over your headshot and will result in a formal and traditional portrait.
The second option (best LinkedIn photos) is to capture your LinkedIn headshot in a less staged and more contemporary style. This type of commission we get asked to do and involves a photographer visiting your place of business and including elements of your company and surroundings in the LinkedIn photos. We find this results in a more relaxed and natural style of headshot which, although professional, makes the person look more approachable and engaging.
The third option is similar to the second option, ie the photographer comes to you, but instead of a formal to-camera pose your photographed looking off-camera as if you are in working mode and almost unaware that you have your portrait taken. This style of corporate portrait photography is becoming very popular as the pictures look entirely unposed, and the subject finds the whole process less staged.
If your marketing budget does not allow you to commission a professional corporate portrait photographer, then we still suggest that you take care what you upload your LinkedIn photo. Never leave the profile photo empty so that your page shows a default blank. Looking unprofessional and can even suggest an element of mistrust in the viewer's mind.
