How Professional Photography and Video Can Elevate Your Business

As a business owner, no matter your business type or your industry standing, you are most likely always looking at how to improve your sales or how to keep up with the current hot sales trend you’re in. After all, you have big growth goals to achieve this year!  

 

As much as your products and services can speak for themselves, they won’t always do the trick when grabbing a new client’s eye or keeping your customers interested in coming back.  

 

Today, we will explain how professional photography and video services can elevate your business in the eyes of the consumer, ultimately helping your business grow! When you are ready to take that next step, call or book a session with NTP2 Photography today! 

Why Does It Matter? 

 

You might be trying hard to advertise online, but are failing to find any traction while doing so. Now, why might this be the case? Take a look at your marketing and compare it to any major fortune 500 company out there. Any differences?  

 

I know what you’re thinking… Surely, I couldn’t achieve the level of professional photography or video that they can, right? WRONG! You certainly can achieve exceptional photos & videos for your own growing business that will compete with any big brand on the market. And, trust me, they will make a huge difference to how your potential clients view you!  

 

Professional photos and videos of your company will help you be memorable in a good way and help to increase your credibility online. That means more business at the end of the day, which is most people’s ultimate goal.  

 

Quality Conveys Quality 

 

Having professional photography and videography done for your business will erase any doubt about your capabilities or reputation. They literally show your value to your prospective clients. Whether it is photography of your products, your storefront, your team, or your office; it directly affects how others view your business’s expertise. (And help determine if people want to spend their hard-earned money with you.)  

 

The quality of your marketing should match the quality of your product or service. 

 

Low or poor-quality photos can make your products appear less desirable compared to other brands to your everyday customer. If a restaurant has amazing food, but the pictures online don’t look appetizing, people simply will order or go out to eat elsewhere. 

 

Show, Don’t Tell 

 

If your business focuses on providing a service for others, you may want to consider professional photos or videos of your services in action. Explaining your business’ purpose to your potential clients can only go so far, it is far more effective to show them.  

 

A great way to accomplish this while advertising your services is to show off your beautiful office and your wonderful team in action on your website or social media. Showing your clients what they may see when they choose you over your competitors in a positive and professional light will always give you the upper hand.  

 

Video’s Effect on Social Media 

 

As time goes on, more and more of our daily media consumption is in video format. Humans are simple, something aesthetically pleasing is moving around on the screen, so we look at it longer! 

 

Videos get over 10 times more shares on average than photos. 

 

When planning out ideas to market your business, try to incorporate video as much as possible along the way. Professional quality video can make a world of difference to both your engagement rate on social media and your client’s perception of your brand. Luckily, we handle both types of projects so you don’t have to search for two quality vendors to help out.

What to Wear for Your Headshots

Dressing to impress for photos can feel overwhelming with endless options. Of course, you want to put your best face forward for your professional portraits. Feeling comfortable and confident is the top priority for your outfit of choice.  

 

But if you’re not a fashion guru, NTP 2 Photography has tried and true wardrobe tips so you (and your business) can make a great first impression. Scroll on to get ready for your headshot photoshoot. 

  

Take an Industry Cue 

 

The type of industry you work in will be the gauge of appropriate attire to wear in your photo session.  

 

Your outfit will differ depending on if you work in an active, outdoor capacity versus a more formal or creative field or even one that requires a uniform. Pay attention to what your boss wears daily. And if you are the boss, take a look at what others in your industry are wearing in their headshots. 

Avoid Worn & Too-Casual Clothing 

 

No matter the type of job you have, you want to punch things up for your professional photos. While still keeping your industry in mind, opt for a bit more formal than your usual day-to-day wear.  

 

And make sure what you do select is in good condition and clean. This is particularly true of brighter clothing and knitted fabrics that can show pilling. We suggest opting for tailored items that are on the newer side or labeled “dry-clean only.” 

  

Bring Multiple Options 

 

Depending on which portrait session you book with NTP 2 Photography, we either allow two or three outfit changes for your headshots.  

 

We like to suggest the rule of three when it comes to your attire. The first outfit is what a client would see you in if they were in when meeting with you in a professional setting. Then, you want to go up a level for a more professional look, and then choose an outfit with a more casual feel. We normally say unless you are in the fitness industry then yoga pants won't cut it! 

  

So keep in mind what kind of work you’d normally be doing in your chosen location and what you’d normally be wearing. Whether you choose different colors or opt for a more formal look paired with a more casual look, it’s a good idea to have a variety of looks.  

 

It’s recommended that you bring back-ups just in case. You never know when you might have the misfortune of a spill, tear, or even angry bird wrecking your outfit. And as we shoot the photos we like to have options to choose from, and often when we see an outfit, we might decide to change the plan.  

 

At NTP2 Photography, The Business Headshot Session package offers 2 outfit changes and the Business Branding Session offers 3 outfit changes. 

  

Focus on Fit 

 

A tailored fit is always the best outfit choice for headshots. Wearing oversized clothes or even a tad too small can make you appear bigger than you are.  

 

Suits in darker colors are always a safe and timeless choice. Make sure the shoulders and arms are a perfect fit. If you’re concerned about the waist, don’t fret – headshots are usually from the shoulders and up or just above the waist. Because these photos are cropped, you may want to wear a top with a higher neckline, including keeping suit shirts buttoned up. 

Keep It Simple 

 

The best professional headshots are free from distraction, enhancing your natural features.  

 

Keeping jewelry minimal, classic, and simple is best. If wearing a necklace, pendants are best if visible above the crop of the photo. You’ll also want to keep hair and makeup light, natural, and representative of you.  

 

Ladies, you may even want to treat yourself to a blowout and professional makeup application with airbrushing for the perfect finish. 

  

Consider Color Psychology 

 

Color psychology is the study of hues relating to human behavior. Consider what message you want to communicate in your headshots and choose your wardrobe colors accordingly. 

  

• Dark colors are considered more formal and authoritative, particularly high-contrast pairings 

• Light colors are regarded as more approachable and friendly 

• Most bright colors, like reds, oranges, yellows, and blues, convey power, confidence, and energy 

• Neutral colors are conservative and, well, neutral 

  

Select Solid Colors 

 

Solid colors, or even very subtle patterns, are best for everyone. Avoid busy and bold patterns that are distracting from your face in headshots.  

 

Always avoid small, repetitive patterns to prevent the moire effect; a camera can pick this up and create a wavy design that looks like it’s moving. When in doubt, stick to all solids or a light, large-scale pattern like a soft plaid. 

  

Choose Clothes That Contrast 

 

If you have a company-branded headshot with branded colors, then you’re already set! Otherwise, keep in mind the backdrop of your portraits when choosing colors for your headshots.  

 

You’ll want to contrast with the background and your skin tone so you don’t look like a floating head. While you can get a great monochromatic look, it might be helpful to run your choices by the NTP 2 Photography team so we can guide you on the best options. 

Ready for Your Professional Headshots 

  

Whatever you choose to wear for your professional headshots, selecting a veteran photographer is paramount.  

 

At NTP 2 Photography, we offer several packages so you can choose what’s right for you and your business. Contact us today to learn more or to schedule your professional headshots!
