As summer winds down and we transition into fall, businesses are feeling that familiar “back-to-school” energy. It’s not just students returning to classrooms—companies everywhere are gearing up for a busy season ahead. Are you experiencing that surge of activity? We’re seeing an uptick in calls, scheduling of conferences, refreshing of marketing materials, and a renewed focus on strategy.
For us, the summer months of July and August are typically quieter, a time to catch our breath. But as the leaves start to turn, we’re bracing for a pedal-to-the-metal autumn. If your business is in the same boat, now is the perfect time to consider refreshing your visual branding—starting with headshots and team portraits.
Why Refresh Your Headshots Now?
Your team’s headshots are often the first impression clients and partners have of your company. As you update your strategies and marketing materials, your visuals should reflect your current identity and culture. Fresh headshots can rejuvenate your brand, making it more relatable and up-to-date. Plus, with everyone feeling that back-to-school excitement, it’s a great time to capture that energy in your photos.
Get Animated with Your Headshots
But why stop at traditional headshots? This season, why not get animated? Animated headshots are a cutting-edge way to make your team stand out. They offer instant engagement, showcasing your team’s personalities and adding a dynamic flair to your company’s online presence. Whether it’s a subtle movement or a fun twist, animated headshots can highlight the unique culture and energy of your business.
These types of headshots aren’t just eye-catching—they’re also a fantastic way to convey your company’s creativity and innovation. In a world where first impressions are often made online, animated headshots give you a memorable edge.
The Anticipation of a New Season
There’s something invigorating about the back-to-school season. It’s a time filled with anticipation, excitement, and a renewed sense of purpose. As you plan for the busy months ahead, think about how your company’s visuals can contribute to that momentum. Updating your headshots and portraits is a simple yet powerful way to align your brand with the fresh energy of the season.
