An artist portrait as part of your marketing and advertising strategy
You can't use the photos from your last vacation to present yourself as an artist in press releases, at festivals and on your own website. A professional photo shows how much value you place on your work and professional image. Artist portraits should be thought of as part of your marketing and advertising strategy to position your name as an artist.

Artist Portrait: The image to position yourself as an artist
Positioning yourself as an artist can take years or a lifetime. The important thing is to take the right steps to differentiate yourself and create a recognizable and reputable personal brand. Photography is one of the most important tools that artists should use for their professional and commercial image.
An image that conveys seriousness and professionalism. These factors build trust with future contractors, artist agencies, festivals, juries, as well as future buyers and the general public. You need to think of yourself as a brand, and you are the product. If you present yourself poorly, you will appear unprofessional.
Artist Portrait: Show the world what you are passionate about.
When you start your freelance business in Berlin and need a professional photo for your website, for the professional networks like LinkedIn or Xing. It can be a photo in your studio or workshop while you are working, a photo during an exhibition or in a photo studio. As an artist and depending on your industry, you should consider how you dress when it comes to your character and what type of clothing you want to present yourself in. Convey your passion for what you do and let people discover your workspace, studio or workshop. Convey your world and show your professional work.
Artist Portrait for your social media profile and media kit
Prepare your press kit with artist photos to send to festivals and competitions. Don't think of it as an expense, think of it as an investment. A project without photos or a project with poor quality photos will hardly be noticed.
