Why Roanoke Realtors Are Ditching Traditional Headshots for Something More Approachable

10/1/2024

 
Do you feel like your business headshots just don’t capture the real you? You’re not alone! Many realtors and professionals, especially women over 40, struggle with stiff, traditional photos that don’t reflect their approachable, friendly side. That’s where a Glam Session can change everything! Recently, I worked with a realtor from Roanoke, Virginia who felt awkward in front of the camera, unsure of what to wear or how to pose. The results? Confident, natural, and fun photos that show her true personality.

Why Headshots Matter for Realtors in Roanoke

​Your headshot is often the first impression potential clients get of you. A warm, friendly photo can help build trust instantly. Whether you’re based in Roanoke or the New River Valley, a fresh, updated headshot can set you apart in a crowded real estate market.

From Stiff to Approachable: The Transformation

​Many realtors feel nervous about being in front of the camera, just like my recent client. She said, “My photos for business are just never right or capture what I’m hoping for.” But by guiding her through outfit choices and easy, confident posing, we created a set of photos that reflect her authentic self—friendly, approachable, and professional.

How a 40 Over 40 Photoshoot Can Teach Your Daughter Confidence and Self-Worth

5/28/2024

 
Turning 40 was a turning point for my client. She realized she had spent years caring for others and neglecting herself. “I left the photoshoot feeling fantastic and like my old self,” she said. She knew she needed to lead by example to raise her daughter to be kind, confident, and assertive. She wanted to show her that beauty comes in all shapes and sizes.

Check out her Before and After below.

​Encouraged by a friend’s experience with the 40 Over 40 Movement, she decided to have her own photoshoot. She wanted to be more than just “Mommy” or “Employee” and become an active participant in her own life. During the shoot she felt like a Queen. The supportive and positive environment made her feel comfortable and empowered.

By embracing her beauty through the 40 Over 40 photoshoot, she taught her daughter a valuable lesson: self-care is essential, and beauty comes from within. Her photoshoot was not just about taking pictures; it was about reclaiming her identity and showing her daughter the importance of self-love.
