4 SO, WHAT IS PERSONAL BRANDING PHOTOGRAPHY? This is the first step in positioning yourself as an expert. Professional photos are no longer just for the end of your signature. Photography and videography empowers your personal brand online and in person, and creates long-lasting brand recognition. WHY IS IT IMPORTANT TO HAVE GREAT PHOTOS OF YOURSELF? As they say, you only get one chance to make a first impression. Good photography is essential to every type of business, even if you are a small business. It says everything about who you are and what your business is about. Business photography is one of your most important client-facing marketing pieces. These days, prospects and clients are likely to Google you and see your online presence before they ever meet you in person! Some people are even saying that "Google is the new resume" because if you do meet someone in person, chances are they'll go out of their way to search for you on Google if they are interested in learning more. So when people look for you online... What do they see?
