Yes!! Your clothing likely needs retouching. No I’m not kidding.

I’ve had a few fashion stylists tell me that more inexpensive clothes are cut larger, to fit a larger variety of body types, and more expensive clothes have better cuts and more attention to detail when it comes to styling and fit.  Some people also wear loose fitting clothing in hopes of hiding a few extra pounds, but in the photography world, this strategy is actually a mistake and makes you look larger than you are.

If you have the time for and can afford a hand tailored suit, this would likely look best “on camera” and help you look your best. But this is not always practical.

Enter retouching for your clothing…

We use photoshop to help you give that custom fitted look. It helps you look more polished and put together. Although not obvious to the viewer, it helps them “feel” your attention to detail and professionalism.

This is something that takes time and is of course hard to do with clothing printed with certain patterns. Solid colors work best for this!

This is just one example of a pretty awesome benefit you get from visiting with a professional headshot studio like ours. Sure you can get a quick headshot done at the mall or from a friend with a “nice camera” but it’s highly likely that neither will have the ability to or will think to retouch your clothing. It’s a detail that won’t get overlooked with us and is something we view as important to your success.

Headshots for your most valuable employees?

CEO’s, Managers, and Leaders just about everywhere will attribute much of their success to the hard work of those that work for them. Without a great team of dedicated employees, companies would simply not be able to get the job done and would fall short of meeting their customers needs.

The questions becomes how can these managers and leaders recognize their employees in a meaningful way. I recently had the privilege of photographing some outstanding employees recently for a large corporation. Their manager had the idea to recognize their contribution but placing their photos on the wall in their production facility. This is a cell phone picture of the start of the display and we provided both the photography and the custom red frames to match the companies branding.

This was a fun project for us to work on and we were excited to be able to help recognize these very special employees in this way.

How do you recognize your employees and make them part of your business? Have you considered a photo display in your lobby or work area to honor them?
