Getting a team portrait is a great idea because when done well, a team portrait captures the various personalities of its members, unique team dynamics, and the diversity of the individual players. Potential customers want to know who will be working on their business, and team portraits go a long way in marketing materials and on your website to do just that.
And even beyond the marketing aspect, by having their portrait taken, the team comes together for a fun project that can help deepen connections and camaraderie in a safe space outside the usual competitive landscape of the workplace. In “Leaders Eat Last,” Simon Sinek writes that “only when we feel we are in a circle of safety will we pull together as a unified team.” That sense of unity comes through in the team portraits we photograph, simultaneously boosting trust among your prospects while reinforcing your brand.
