Things we need from you . . .
Photos
All pictures must be hi-res
At least three to as many as seven photos of you (include photo credit if applicable).
Considerations for your pictures:
- Consider what look is “on brand” for you. You want to look like yourself as you typically show up. You want to look like the professional you are.
- Bright, solid colors work best. Skip busy patterns, they distract from you.
- Ensure the images have enough room for us to crop them.
Here are some examples of what we are looking for . . .
Photos
Head and shoulders
- Color
- Minimum of 300 dpi
- Preferably 4 x 5 inches
- Head and shoulders visible
- Distration free background
- Eyes looking directly at camera
- No limbs extending outside the frame
- Plenty of space all around you, plenty of room above your head

Upper-Body

Action shots . . . These pictures should be "on brand" for you. Such as: on stage, being interviewed, interviewing someone, working with a client, at your workplace, etc. Please include captions for context.








Other lifestyle images . . .
Depending upon what is on brand for you, and the types of projects we are doing for you, we may also want additional images of you. These may include you receiving an award; presenting an award; being engaged in a hobby; at an event, perhaps a philanthropic or charity event; on holiday or vacation; at a retreat; at a community event, etc.
Examples of what we may create with your images:







If you're planning a photo shoot, consider these tips . . .
- Bright, solid colors work best. Skip the busy patterns.
- Consider what look is "on brand" for you. You want to look like yourself as you typically show up. You want to look professional.
- It is best not to have anything busy behind you. Solid walls or blurred out behind you is best for us to work with. Out in nature can work nicely too.
- Be sure the photographer does not provide images that are cropped too closely. We prefer the larger version; we can crop it to size.
Your logo . . .
Submit a crisp, hi-res image, preferably PNG. If you send a JPEG, ensure it is a transparent background.
Your bio . . .
Your bio is written in the third person and includes what you are best known for; what is your expertise. Include some professional accomplishments, accolades, awards you've received, etc. About 100 words is optimum.
If you need some assistance building your bio, see our Bio Builder Kit
After you submit this, we'll get back to you and keep you apprised of progress.
Should your article be accepted, you'll receive an invoice.
