# Branding Photography for Employees

![Picture of Margaret ](https://app.hubspot.com/settings/avatar/d41d8cd98f00b204e9800998ecf8427e) By  [Margaret "Maggie" McCanna](https://maggietakespix.com/blog/author/margaret-maggie-mccanna)  ·   1 minute read

Many of our first encounters with a business are online, either via a website or social media. These encounters create strong first impressions.

As an employee, you are a representative of your employer. Be a good ambassador.

As someone who might be looking for a new position later, you are marketing yourself. How do you look to someone hoping to hire you?

As someone who might be interested in starting a side hustle or full-blown business, you can start that process now, sharing your expertise with professional imagery.

**More than Headshots: Personal Branding**

Authentically show your story, what you offer, and why. Show what it’s like to work with you. Share your knowledge. Give them some insight into who you are.

Become someone your current or future boss feels they know, like, and trust… and they’ll want to connect with you.

How much *better *would this be with professional, personal visual content?

Build your personal brand with professional photographs that reflect all that you are. Create a collection in one session and have a bank of pictures available whenever you need one, like for the website at work, or that expert post on LinkedIn, or that feature piece in a magazine.

About Maggie: I’m a photographer specializing in women’s portraits and personal brand photography, helping female entrepreneurs cut through the noise and become visible online.

My goal with our sessions is to create images that showcase you as authentic, beautiful, and confident - images you are proud to share - images that will let your audience get to know you - images that will help you grow your career... even if you're an introvert or uncomfortable in front of a camera. My superpower is making photoshoots relaxing and fun!

Experience it yourself with your custom session.
