Will Scott Head Shot’s for SMX Local Search Ranking Tactics

July 9th, 2008 · 17 Comments

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 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

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

Good Luck!

So, we have 2 for number 3.

From Mrs. Scott: (3 or 5).
David Mihm // Jul 9, 2008 at 2:11 pm

Definitely #3.
Matt McGee // Jul 9, 2008 at 2:42 pm

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.
Michael Jensen // Jul 9, 2008 at 5:53 pm

Go with what the wife says. #5
Amy // Jul 9, 2008 at 7:51 pm

definitely #3
Mom // Jul 9, 2008 at 8:11 pm

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
Cari McGee // Jul 9, 2008 at 8:51 pm

#5, for sure
Miriam Ellis // Jul 9, 2008 at 11:16 pm

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.

Love,

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.
Aaron Weiche // Jul 13, 2008 at 2:18 pm

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.
