Will Scott Head Shots for SMX Local Search Ranking Tactics

Written by

I’d like a little help here please. Like my friend, Portland OR Web Designer, David Mihm I needed a head shot for SMX Local Mobile where I’ll be on a panel with a fine bunch of fellows on ranking factors for local search.

I went to see one of our clients Jessica Johanningmeier a New Orleans Wedding Photographer to have her shoot a few.

“Make me look young, thin and beautiful” I said and she felt right at home.

So without further ado I give you the choices. Please have a look and tell me in the comments which is your favorite:

I’ve got a favorite but interestingly my wife disagrees 🙂

And… remember what grandma used to say… “If you don’t have something nice to say” — I think you know the rest.

Thanks for your help!

    Its sincere (or at least appears to be). Not too serious yet not to causal.

    Good Luck!

    So, we have 2 for number 3.

    I think I’d go with #5. And then #2. I’m a big believer in the power of a smile….

    Hi Will!

    I agree with your wife, but it depends what type of look you’re going for – I think #3 shows a more serious side without too much expression, while #5 definitely shows a personality. I think people enjoy a little personality.

    I think something is held back in 1,2, and 3. I love 4 but would go with 5.

    Which is your favorite?

    Love, Mom

    2 votes for photo #2 here, Will. Liam and I both think that’s the friendliest.

    I am so excited about you being at SMX. What a wonderful experience for you!

    We both prefer your expression in #2, but your wrinkly shirt spoils it – in our opinion. Second choice is #5. Margaret said, “If it was my decision, I’d swap your head in #2 with your body in #5. Tell Will, if he wants, he can email the files to me and I’ll do it.”

    I like the big smiles in #’s 2 and #5.

    But then….I’d give lots and lots of weight to what the wife suggests…..and I’d give significant weight to what mom suggests.

    …..they all are complimentary. don’t worry.

    I’d say #3 and then #1.

    After looking at number #4 for a few seconds, I felt like you had stole some ideas out of my mind or planted something in my soul. 🙂
