Headshots are an essential tool for personal branding and internet presence in today's world.
Here's an example of why you should have a professional or business headshot. Would you consider visiting a doctor whose photo was shot with a cellphone at a club or while on vacation if you came across his internet profile? You wouldn't, of course.
To be honest, we've never seen such a profile of a medical practitioner because medical professionals are highly taught early in their careers about their image and the image of the profession.
Connecting with the person behind the business is essential for developing long-lasting relationships; companies of all sizes are increasingly use professional headshots to create connections with present and prospective consumers.
Headshots are now ubiquitous. They appear on the websites of both major organizations and small businesses and entrepreneurs.
Without a professional headshot to help you connect with clients and establish your brand, it's almost as if you're not bringing business cards to a networking event.
People remember faces, and your headshot is how you can get your message out there.
TerrificShot Studio Headshots PhotographyTM will help you in developing the ideal image for you and your company. You have a business to run, so let us assist you in communicating the core of your brand to your customers.

Why should you engage a professional to take your headshot?
Professionalism. First and foremost, it lends credibility and professionalism to you. Potential clients, investors, and collaborators are more likely to take you seriously if they discover you online, whether on LinkedIn, your website, or even Facebook.
Initial Impression. Did you know that within 10 seconds of meeting or being seen, we are assessed by someone? Whether we like it or not, we do judge a book by its cover.
Assume a buyer is seeking for widgets and wants to establish a long-term business connection with the widget salesperson.
Personality. A decent headshot can offer potential clients a sense of who you are, and a beautiful grin may go a long way.
Confidence. When you call on a potential customer, a good headshot will make you feel more confident and competent. we usually recommend having a makeup and hair artist on site or getting everything done ahead of time. It's remarkable how much more confident you'll feel as a result. If you are waiting to lose those 10 pounds, there is no reason to wait; retouching can trim those cheeks or arms down to the point where no one will notice but will just comment on what a wonderful image it is.
Stand out from the crowd. A excellent LinkedIn profile photo will set you apart from the competitors.
Because your headshot is frequently the first impression for potential clients or employers, it should increase your professionalism and trustworthiness while also attracting your ideal clientele.
Improve your internet visibility.
People that are interested in doing business with you will conduct a fast Google search on you. They want to know that the individual they will be working with is competent and trustworthy.
When you upload a photo of yourself, it appears in a Google search. By changing your profile photo on a regular basis, you are putting more photos of yourself out there. This will assist you in developing a professional brand and presence.
When you first started out, you most likely used a photo taken by a buddy as your profile photo. It may not have been a huge concern back then, but now that your company is expanding, you need a high-quality photo that conveys the idea that you are a professional.
Using an out-of-date photo may give the impression that you are out-of-date or out of touch.
A more contemporary and professional headshot will appeal to the majority of consumers.
Professional headshots should be updated once a year, according to experts. This is especially true for women, who are more likely to change their hairdo and color. Most individuals will conduct a short search on the person with whom they would do business. You should ensure that the photo accurately depicts your present age, appearance, and talents.

Investing in quality business headshots makes your brand appear professional to potential customers.
Having professionally photographed headshots on your website, social media pages, and emails will undoubtedly pique your customers' interest in your company.

It is critical that your headshots be consistent and as professional as possible.
For the finest results, you should entrust all photography work to a professional.

When consumers contact your business, the majority of them want to know who they are working with.
ESTABLISH TRUST
When clients get a glimpse behind the scenes and meet the person behind the business, they develop a greater sense of trust in you and are more likely to purchase and remain loyal. It's all about the'know-like-trust' element!
DIFFERENTIATE YOURSELF
With so many similar products and services available, you need something to differentiate yourself. While there may be a few firms that operate similarly to yours, there is only one YOU. If the appropriate people see you, hear your story, and understand why you are unique, they will connect with you.
IMPROVE PERCEPTION
Perception refers to how other people see you and your business. How others view you is heavily influenced by your complete brand and brand identity. In comparison to a low-quality, poorly-lit selfie, a professional headshot and library of personal brand imagery will enhance how people see your business.
IMPORTANT VALUE
With an increased perception comes a correspondingly higher value. Others will be ready to pay more for your products or services if they consider you and your business to be professional, high-quality, and trustworthy.
YOUR ULTIMATE SELF
Not only does a professional portrait photographer understand how to use light and composition to enhance your appearance, they also know how to put you at ease and have fun, allowing your true personality to shine through the shot. They'll advise you on wardrobe selection, hair and makeup application, and attractive postures so that you feel confident, powerful, and thrilled to share your unique personality with the world!

When I arrived, he was quick at adding suggestions on straightening my suit to avoid wrinkles in the image and recommended background colors I highly recommend if you're looking for a great business headshot! |
Alexandrea I needed a new professional LinkedIn profile picture and he delivered. I was in and out in under 30 mins and even received my final edited photos shortly after. He's truly great at what he does and I look forward to using his services again in the future. |
Nicole I had a great experience getting my picture taken here in Palo Alto. The photographer is professional, prompt and makes the entire process easy. All the information TerrifcShot provides once you make an appointment is very handy. Even the actual photoshoot was very stress-free and quick. I highly recommend TerrificShot photography. |
Georges I had my acting headshots done here In Palo Alto. It was a breeze booking a session and the location was easy to fine. The 30 minutes went by fast because the photographer is very efficient. After the session, I got the edited photos on the same day and they turned out great!All in all, great place for professional or casual headshots! |
Jay I got my first headshots taken with TerrificShot. The photographer gave me easy to follow instructions to hold my shape and the photos turned out great! Would totally recommend! | Mina The photographer is the most responsible and professional photographer I've met so far. TerrificShot Studio helped me with my headshot session, during which we patiently figured out the best angle and position to shoot making sure the results look perfect. The photographeris also super efficient and completed the polishing and sent the photos to me only 3 hours after the shoot. I highly recommend TerrificShot if you want the quick and high-quality headshot. |
Shilpa I had professional photos taken for online use. I got an appointment date without having to wait for too long. The photographer’s experience and professionalism was exceptional. His friendly and relaxed manner put me at ease. He took dozens of photographs with different backgrounds and from different angles. I am very happy with the experience and highly recommended Terrific Shot photography. |
Philip For someone who is awkward with taking photos, The photographer was exactly who I needed to make this process painless and in fact enjoyable! He was great with guiding you with the posing, attentive to listen to your preference, and provided feedbacks on photo selection. Not to mention how fast he is with the turnaround time for edited photo. I paid for a corporate professional headshot for 30 mins and it was worth every penny. Thank you TerrificShot! |
Laura Well organized and easy to book, both in studio and at our Palo Alto office. The photographer was on time, professional, and really easy and fun to work with. The photographer had photo gallery link for us later on the same day, and edited pictures were ready just two days later. Actually, we loved most of the pictures, so ended up buying the whole gallery anyways. Already bragged about the photo session and had a slide show with our friends. |

The price of our headshot photography can vary greatly based on how you use it (personal versus corporate). We do offer affordable prices for LinkedIn package.
For men, we recommend a medium to dark suit jacket, or if you are not wearing a jacket, you should wear a shirt color other than white, if you need a headshot against a white background. For women, long story short, we recommend a top with a simple neckline (scoop neck works well) with minimal jewelry.
What if I'm NOT a photogenic person ? We heard this comment very often. We will help you during the session just to be YOURSELF! When you stop thinking about how you look is when you look the most attractive.
How do I choose a Portrait photographer ? Liking the photographer's work is only 50% as important as liking and TRUSTING the photographer. There's a good chance you're not a professional model and don't know what to do in front of a camera. It is the photographer's responsibility to direct you to the shots you require. Please give us a call and take the time to speak with us on the phone. TerrificShot Studio Photography specializes in portrait photography.
I don't know nothing about posing. Will you direct me? That is exactly what separates us from the rest of the headshot photographers around us in Palo Alto. We believe that technical camera/lightning represents 10% of the work. The other 90% is the photographer’s job to create an atmosphere that you feel safe and to provide guidance on what to do in front of the camera. Having your picture taken is NOT a natural experience. During the session, we will do our best to make you feel relax. When we reach these moments is when we capture your best personality.
Do you provide retouching? The most important is to get your best face expression that emphasizes your credibility during the session. Next, all minor imperfections such as blemish, wrinkles and so on... can be taken care with a few clicks of mouse under photoshop! Keep in mind, the best retouching is when you look natural in the picture. We will discuss specific editing requests concerns with you during the session.
How long will it take to get my final images? Right after the session, the same day, you get your photos proofing gallery via email and text in order for you to pick your images. Once we get your selection, it takes only ONE day. In fact, you can get your final images the SAME DAY. Of course, You can provide your feedback on the edited photos and we would be happy to edit more if needed. The final images will be delivered via email or download link.
