Last week I wasn’t showing up anywhere in search for headshots, boohoo.  Yesterday I was number three in just one week!  I wasn’t really thinking about optimizing for headshots because I’m basically a model shooter.  The film industry has come to town so headshots are on my radar more.  There are quite a few industries […]
