BRANDING & HEADSHOTS
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
- What is a headshot?
-
headshot is a professional photograph that captures an individual's face and shoulders. It's typically used for professional purposes, such as on a business card, website, or social media profile.
- What is the difference between a branding photo and a headshot?
-
While both branding photos and headshots are used to promote an individual's professional brand, they serve slightly different purposes. A headshot typically focuses on an individual's face and shoulders, and is intended to show their professionalism and personality. A branding photo, on the other hand, is a more stylized and creative image that tells a visual story about an individual's brand or business. It might include props, different settings, and multiple poses, and is often used to create a cohesive visual identity across multiple platforms. While a headshot is a crucial component of any professional brand, a branding photo can help take your personal brand to the next level by showcasing your unique style and personality.
