I often talk about the importance of professional photography and how great photos online help make a great first impression to prospective clients. Many businesses have moved online due to COVID-19, and until we are back to normal, many meetings and presentations will still occur through ZOOM. It seems to be a trend to join your zoom meetings with audio and listen without starting your video. It feels safe to begin without a camera and wait until the conditions are ideal to really come into the frame and show yourself on the screen. Also during meetings, unexpected things can happen, like an incoming phone call, a crying child, someone at the front door, or a much-needed visit to the restroom. During those interruptions, you would want to stop sharing your video so that your professional headshot appears. |
