Headshots work well in professions where decision making is based on looks, like casting by talent agencies.
Since I am also a standup comic, I know that headshots are a very powerful personal branding tool.
- danjoredd 4y agoUnfortunately a good one can work well even if you don't work in a profession for looks. Its the angel bias...people that are merely competent and look really nice often get promotions over someone who absolutely excels at their job but looks average/below average. A headshot is a way of framing yourself to look better than you actually do, and can have some genuine uses in that way.
