There are so many web sites that it is overwhelming to try and decide the best business to hire. Web sites have become really generic because businesses are trying to design them on their own using cheap and uninteresting templates and stock photography.

I am a professional portrait photographer and have the opportunity to work for web site designers that know the difference between a generic site and a personalized site that will set your business apart from the hundreds of other sites selling the same service or product.

The first way to set yourself apart from all the sites that are difficult to navigate and not interesting is to hire a web designer that can ask you exactly what you want to convey and the client you want to attract.

Secondly you should hire a professional photographer that can truly introduce you to your clients, A professional portrait that is comfortable and truly looks like you are engaged and ready to be of service. I recommend the quality of the head shot must be good.  This is not a introduction to just identify you as in a wanted poster.  The qualities of a professional head portrait that will set you apart from others is to make sure it has good composition, good lighting and of course good expression.

If you are trying to get your business chosen over others what better way then to take the time to have a true professional photo to represent you. Another good way to personalize your site is to have photos taken in your work place. Photos of you and  your actual work associates. These photos should also be done in a professional way not as a snap shot . This really personalizes you and sets you apart from other web sites that use stock photography.

Depending on your profession you may want to considering including some photos on your site that might include your hobbies or families and pets.

The trick is having a site that after your customer or client looks at this site they have a true impression of who you are and what you are going to provide them.

I will offer 25% off Professional Head shots for the month of August . This will cover photo shoot in my studio as well as all rights to photos.
