5 Signs It’s Time To Update Your Headshot

Here are 5 Reasons It's Time to Update Your Headshot or LinkedIn Profile Photo!

1 - It doesn't look like you anymore...

I completely understand the urge to keep an old photo that you love, but it's doing you a disservice when people expect to see someone else from your photo. It's jarring and doesn't promote trust or professionalism.  It can actually do more harm than you think and can highlight rather than hide an insecurity.

2 - It's from your vacation or a party

I get it, you want to be fun and show your personality, but there are ways to do that with studio lighting, and in a more professional way.  Having a professional headshot doesn't have to be stuffy or "too professional”.  It can still be you!  In fact those are my favorite photos to create!

3 - It's more than 4-5 years old

Depending on your profession and your age, you can stretch this a little bit, but as a rule, we all change quickly and having new photos makes you look professional and demonstrates your confidence and professionalism.

Plus, you deserve all of your friends on LinkedIn telling you how good you look in your new LinkedIn profile photo at least twice a decade.

4 - You Received or Want To Receive A Promotion

Managing your perception with your boss, coworkers, and clients is important, especially in the early and middle stages of your career. Growing into new responsibilities and greater professional success is just as much a matter of perception as it is hard work. Don't short change yourself with a mediocre profile image. People notice when you care.

5 - You procrastinate when people ask for your photo

I have so many clients that tell me one of the greatest benefits is having a great Headshot they are proud of so that when they are asked to share, they don't procrastinate. They don't feel bad. They’re actually excited to hit send and share it.  Peace of mind is a good feeling!!

I have had multiple clients who booked a photoshoot as they were growing their business and career, when 2 years after our photoshoot they were featured in Forbes and one on a billboard in Times Square...they didn't have to panic and get a photo taken, they already had photos ready to go!  Again, you can't put a price on having that peace of mind and knowing you're ready when you shot comes!

What my clients say from my 5 - Star Google Reviews:

“Aaron - The photos look amazing! I think you captured just what I was looking for. For your information- we did these shoots in 2 other countries. One country the client hated, and the other one they didn't love. But they are raving about your images. So very nicely done and a pleasure working with you.”

“Hi Aaron - I never thought I would actually be looking forward to seeing my pictures, but what an absolutely incredible job you have done! I am so grateful-these came out so much better than I ever thought possible!!”

“I highly recommend Aaron for professional headshot photography. Aaron recently took headshots for our global management team, and the entire experience was above expectations.”
