Telling the world's greatest story — yours
Every once in awhile you get the opportunity to work on a project that really makes you smile. I was fortunate enough to recently get a call from Shoreline Insurance Group and learn that they are growing! Their immediate needs called for updated staff portraits, but above and beyond that, owner Allison Kraus wanted to build an image library that would accentuate her company branding.
Looking for a new job and trying to freshen up your Linkedin profile? Thinking about launching a Kickstarter soon and want your profile photo to actually look like you in the launch video or when the area media decide to interview you? We're here to help. Anthologie is offering professional business portraits at a great value.
Ready to take your career to the next level, or are you just getting started on your career path? Either way, you'll want to make sure your Linkedin profile is up to date. To complete your online profile you'll need an updated, professional bio picture. Business portraits can help you to build trust with potential clients and employers. Right now, Anthologie is offering headshots at an amazing value to get your fall started with your best face forward.
Join us for Headshot Happy Hour 9 a.m. to noon, Thursday, Sept. 18 at the Grande Market Place courtyard, 12700 Nicollet Avenue, Burnsville, MN.
What is it: a 10 to 15 minute portrait session with professional photographer Dan Iverson
What do I get: 2 unique photos, retouched and edited, electronically delivered in print and web resolution, plus black and white and color versions
What about copyrights: you can use your photos as you wish: Linkedin, business cards, company websites, promotional products, etc.
What does it cost: $50 (regularly $150)
What's the catch: No catch, but this fantastic value is available on Thursday, Sept. 18 only

How do I RSVP: Call 952-232-5830 to set up or time or email info (at) theanthologie.com
What do I wear: We think it's best to dress for the job you want, not the job you already have. Think about the image you want to project to others and dress accordingly.
• Jackets and coats that are crisp and fitted photograph the best
• Dressing in layers is always a great option for multiple looks
• Solid colors rather than busy patterns add an air of sophistication
• Dark and neutral colors are great for outerwear
We have the perfect idea! Why not get some professional training on how to utilize Linkedin to work for you? Our friends at Wild Fig Marketing are actually hosting an education event on the same day — and just around the corner from where we will be providing photos.

Elevate your online profile with professional photos for only $50
Anthologie is offering business profile photo mini sessions at an amazing value. Join us 9 a.m. to noon Thursday, July 10, at Grande Market Place, 12700 Nicollet Avenue, Burnsville, MN, and spruce up your dated online profile picture with a fresh, professional photo. Reservations are required so please contact us at 952-232-5830 or email dan (at) theanthologie.com to reserve your place. Included with your session:
1. Let potential clients get an idea of who you are before your next meeting
2. Showing your face adds integrity to your professional image
3. You're a recent college grad and need a new photo suitable to share with potential employers
4. You're in a career transition or seeking to land your dream job
5. You have a new haircut/color and want a photo that wasn't made during the Bush Administration
We aim to capture your personality with your portrait so it’s important for you to dress in a manner that speaks to who you are and your intended career path. Remember, with business photography, you want to dress for the job you want, not the job you already have. Think about the image you want to project to others and dress accordingly.
• Jackets and coats that are crisp and fitted photograph the best
• Dressing in layers is always a great option for multiple looks
• Solid colors rather than busy patterns add an air of sophistication
• Dark and neutral colors are great for outerwear
• Avoid vibrant colors with shirts unless that’s a part of who you are
• Guys, bring a tie. Ladies, add a scarf. You can always take it off if it’s too formal.
• What’s slimming? Simple, solids, darks, vertical lines and single-breasted suits
It may sound silly, but it’s not a bad idea to practice your smile in a mirror before your session. You may find that your “posed smile” makes you look less approachable. Don’t worry, Anthologie photographer Dan Iverson is a pro at making you relaxed and at ease being yourself in front of the camera.
Please share this event with others. Thanks for visiting!
We help our clients to exceed their marketing goals with custom, branded photography and engaging event photos. Let's tell your story today!
