Okay, so I had new pictures taken recently because I got sick of the old ones and I thought I would freshen up my look a little bit. A great friend of mine took some beautiful photo's of me and now I'm stuck on which picture I like best..! I've narrowed it down to the three below:

1. Classic B&W (current AR picture)

 

2. Full on Color

 

3. Indoors, but with a little greenery in the background still

 

Which one do you think??

Sounds like you all are having trouble picking one picture over the other just like I am..!

Thanks for the feedback everyone!

Tony - Your B&W photo is adorable! Love it! I'm leaning more towards the B&W photo too because I think it adds something different and it's not what is expected so it draws your attention to the photograph more. But from the looks of it, everyone seems to have mixed reviews on choosing a B&W profile picture... Guess only time will tell on which one I end up choosing..!

Gina, Number 1 and number 3 are my choices but it depends on whether you want to use B&W or color. Actually you're lovely either way.

Greg - Thanks for the sweet comment. I actually kind of like the B&W, I think it's a little unexpected but I still think it works nicely. I feel that my smile and the way I am sitting in picture #2 is not very warm and inviting like #1 and #3 are. Anyways, thanks for the feedback! I'm going to tally up the votes now and post them..!

 As promised I said I would post the winner Monday evening and the winner is.. Picture #3 with 10 votes!

 

Here's the breakdown of the tallies:

Picture #1:  5 votes

Picture #2:  3 votes

Picture #3:  10 votes

(some people had 2 votes so I counted a vote for both)

As much as I love #1, I agree with the arguments that #3 is more warm and inviting. Generally color is better for online and other marketing purposes outside of AR, so I am going to ask my photographer friend for the original color picture to suffice best of both worlds..!

Thanks to all for the feedback! :)

My favorite is picture#3, but picture #1 looks better on the current background.

Haris - Thanks for the feedback! I agree, I like the background of picture number #1 better because it doesn't look so cheesy or cluttered.

It would be a bad Facebook photo, but it is a great business picture.

Don't worry, I am not using the B&W for facebook! I have a company page and a personal page - the company page currently has my logo as the picture.

I only have a personal page. I guess I should look into a business one.

Robert - I just recently brought on an agent so operate as a team now and I just thought a company page would work better in that sense. If your pretty good at keeping your page pretty professional as far as comments and photo's go, I almost think it's better to just have one page because it shows that you aren't just a Realtor, your a neighbor and friend as well.
