7 Photos NOT Suitable for Your Publicity Shot
November 17, 2006 by Mary Jo Manzanares
While a studio portrait is not a strict requirement, there are some photo choices that will just NOT do.
It is better to go without a photo, than to use any of the following:
- Your high school or college yearbook photo
- Your wedding photo, with spouse cropped out
- A family reunion photo, with other family members cropped out
- Security or ID badge photo
- Passport photo
- A photo where you are squinting your eyes from looking into the sun
- Glamour shot
Next week, we’ll discuss the possibilities for having a friend take a digital photo that would be suitable as a publicity shot.
