Phoenix Photographer Says Clothes Make the Man - And Sometimes the Career

PHOENIX - Sept. 26, 2013 - PRLog -- It’s said that you have less than 30 seconds to make a good first impression. According to Certified Professional Photographer, Everardo Keeme, “That’s not long considering you have spent decades investing in who you are today. As disheartening as it may sound, people do judge others by their appearance so it is critical that your headshot states that you are ready for the job.  Your image—and picture—will tell your story before your resume does.”

In a new venture, Keeme is combining style makeovers with custom clothing and professional business headshots for men. Initial consultations are complimentary and will be offered at the Everardo Keeme Photography office in Ahwatukee at 15815 S. 46th Street, Suite 116, or in Scottsdale at Photo Fusion Studio located at 7127 E. 6th Avenue.

The Professional Makeover packages will include an image consultation, including fittings for custom made shirts or other items by the J. Hilburn clothing line, and a business portrait session including digital images for use on social media.  For more information or to schedule an appointment, interested parties can call (480) 382-7226 or email ek@everardokeeme.com.

He came upon the idea of makeovers for men through his volunteer work for Career Connectors, a Phoenix based nonprofit which assists people in career transition. “I began to notice that many of the people I consulted with didn’t know the value of a good haircut and clothing selection for work or even their social lives.”

While teaching the unemployed how to make themselves more marketable, he discovered the J. Hilburn clothing line through a well-dressed friend. “I’ve always appreciated quality clothing that fits well but the options are so limited for men. This provides a new alternative for business people of all shapes and sizes who want to project a professional image.”

He adds that, “Most men don’t realize that a few small improvements to their appearance can make a dramatic difference in their careers and their lives.”

In addition to business headshots, Keeme is also known for his creative High School Senior and Family Portraits and is an Official Photographer for the Waste Management Phoenix Open.  For the complete photo gallery, visit www.everardokeeme.com and at www.everardo.us.  More information on the J.
