Lifestyle Personal Branding Photography & Headshots

What’s The Difference Between Personal Branding and Headshot Photographs

A headshot is what it says on the tin - a photograph of your head and shoulders. Headshots are great for profile photos, so it’s important that they are quite close up so people can look at you as if they are talking to you.

Personal branding images are a way of sharing what happens behind the scenes of your business. They say more about you as a person and what you do as a business. They help you to build relationships, create interest and a connection with your audience. Personal brand photos are what give you the edge over a competitor who just uses headshots.

I like to think that Headshots are like your business card. They’re like a “Hello”.

Personal branding portfolios are a 3 dimensional view of YOU; something that connects with your audience, and that makes YOU the first person that they think of when they need services that you offer.

Whether you are looking for headshots, personal branding photos or likely, both, you might be nervous, apprehensive or even filled with dread at the thought of being in front of the camera, or seeing the photos after the shoot. It’s amazing isn’t it - you’re probably super-confident in what you do - a leading expert perhaps. But when it comes to having your photo taken, it's not the same story...unsure what to wear, how much make-up you need, whether to smile, and as for the double chin… You’ve never liked seeing photos of yourself, but guess what!

It doesn’t need to be like that! Personal Branding Photography and Headshots with Beautifully You is a relaxed affair - just you and me in an environment that you love (or in the studio). It’s like a chat between friends.

I’ve worked with female senior executives in the UK’s biggest companies. You’d think their self confidence would be sky-high. Right? But it’s not always so! They’re confident in what they know - they can make decisions at the highest level but when it comes to being in front of the camera, it’s a whole different story.

And that’s where we come in. We specialise in helping you feel great about your photographs.

A photoshoot with Beautifully You is easy, fun and an experience to remember for all the right reasons.

We take care to get to know you and your brand before the day, we help you choose your wardrobe and we can even take care of your hair & make-up. The photos  show the consummate professional, the approachable leader, the confident, successful business owner, images that show your UNWAVERING belief in your brand, photos that show the authentic YOU!
