Studies show that people's first impression now starts online rather than in person, this is especially true with social media, job recruiting and online dating. Therefore, a good photo is key to a great first impression. "The importance of having a great photo with your online profile has increased dramatically over the last few years. People are starting to realize that they're being judged based on their online profiles, this can be as trivial as what restaurants I can get into, to as important as what job offers I get. A selfie just won't cut it," says Bahn.
All of the professionals under contract with Online Profile Pros operate according to OPP specifications, ensuring consistent results across all services and locations. OPP photographers specialize in lifestyle photography, which aims to capture people in real-life places and situations in a natural manner. The goal of this style of photography is to never have the client look too posed or overly glamourized. Many of the OPP photographers shoot on-location as well, adding to the real life aspect of the photos. "We find that clients no longer want plain white, grey or black backgrounds, common in traditional business and actor headshots. Natural, lifestyle photos tell a story and represent the client in a more realistic manner while still being professional," says Bahn.
Online Profile Pros plans to expand their offerings over the next 12 months to include resume and LinkedIn profile help, as well as hair and make-up services. "We aim to be the one-stop-shop for online profiles," states Bahn.
