You might be hearing a lot about Dallas lifestyle photos or branding photography. Personal branding is a buzzword in business these days. Social media has made it easier than ever to promote your business online. However, you also want to present your best foot forward on the internet. Once it’s posted online, it’s there forever. Let’s make sure you’re always presenting your authentic self.
When it comes to personal branding photos, lifestyle headshots are key. If you’re in the creative space, stuffy, stiffly posed headshots just look and feel unnatural. People like to do business with people they know, like, and trust, and an approachable lifestyle headshot helps build that trust online.
Everyone! All business owners can use a well-lit, professional headshot. Your profile photo is your first impression with potential clients. Let’s get rid of that subpar selfie and take a headshot you’re proud to share.
All around the Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex. When you book your DFW lifestyle headshots with me, we can shoot at your location of choice. Maybe you like the concrete jungle and so Deep Ellum may suit your aesthetic. Perhaps you prefer nature, we could go to Arbor Hills Nature Preserve in Plano. Headshots no longer are limited to a white backdrop.
Lifestyle photos allow you to share bits about you, your business, and your life. With custom lifestyle photos, you don’t have to go digging for a stock photo, hoping that you can crop it just right so that it looks custom.
When you take Dallas lifestyle photos for your North Texas business, you can use these photos everywhere. You can use lifestyle photos on your website, on social media, on Linkedin, for Facebook ads, for Instagram ads, for advertising, for marketing, and blog posts. The uses of lifestyle photos are limitless.
You can, but you’ll gain more traction and interest if you infuse yourself into your social media strategy. This is especially true for business owners who sell products, particularly for those in the network marketing space.
Imagine someone scrolling on Facebook or Instagram. They scroll through and see a photo of a product and they see a photo of the business owner with the product. What’s going to differentiate these two photos? The business owner, of course! Why should someone purchase from you? It’s YOU! It’s what they’ll get from working with you, personalized recommendations, and more.
Have you ever gone to a business’ Facebook page or Instagram page and all you see are generic stock photos or graphics? You might be thinking to yourself, “why should I stay on this page? What makes this business different from others?”
When you rely on generic stock photos or thrown together graphics to represent your business, you’re not truly showcasing your business. Potential customers and clients can’t see why they should choose you. If there’s no differentiator that’s obvious to a potential customer, the default mode of comparison is the price. And we all hate being price-shopped, right?
Custom business photos will allow you to set yourself apart from your competition. In a sea of overused stock photos and generic graphics, stand out from the crowd. Present your unique value proposition, front and center. Wondering what your unique value proposition is? It’s YOU!
For example, there are dozens and dozens of yoga instructors out there. Why should someone book a class with you?
Same goes for realtors – you can find a dozen just driving down a neighborhood street with homes for sale. Why should a family hire you to sell their home or help them find a new one?
You are the face of your business. Whether you’re selling custom bath bombs or life coaching, you’re the person behind the business. When it comes to businesses that involved person to person contact, it’s super important for you, the business owner, to be in your photos.
You want potential customers and clients to get to know you, get to like you, and get to trust you. People hire people that they trust, especially as products and services get more and more expensive. You wouldn’t just drop a couple of thousand dollars on anyone, right?
Potentials customers and clients can get to know you by showing your face, whether it’s on a social media post, a live video, or YouTube video. By sharing more of yourself, they can get to like you. By serving them by giving value in each of your posts, they can begin to trust you. Who would you trust more? A photo of a person or a generic graphic? The photo of a person will win every time.
