Will Scott Head Shots for SMX Local Search Ranking Tactics
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:
Will Scott Head shot 01
Will Scott Head Shot 02
Will Scott Head Shot 03
Will Scott Head Shot 04
Will Scott Head Shot 05
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!
Will

#3
Its sincere (or at least appears to be). Not too serious yet not to causal.
Good Luck!

From my friend Dennis Warren by Skype:

So, we have 2 for number 3.
From Mrs. Scott: (3 or 5).
July 9th, 2008 at 2:11 pm
Definitely #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.

Go with what the wife says.
#5

definitely #3

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

#5, for sure

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!

4 or 5. In 4 you look young and bright eyed!

Serious, #1.

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.

#5.

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.

#5 is the best for a professional shot, #2 for others. Great photos!
