Headshots for Landscape Architects: Kristof and Ann of Tuinen Joos

Kristof Joos designs and creates exclusive gardens throughout Flanders. He himself prefers to stay out of the spotlight. Still, his portrait had to convey what his clients have long known: this is a professional of the highest integrity.

Not a show-off, but an expert of integrity in his field. That’s what you had to see in his portrait.

Why a Strong Portrait Pays Off for a Landscape Architect

A landscaping project is a long-term collaboration—often involving a substantial budget—with someone who comes to your home. Trust is everything in this situation. Even before the first meeting, clients look you up: on your website, on LinkedIn, or on Google. What they see there helps determine whether they’ll call you.

  • Trust: A professional, well-presented photo immediately shows who the customer will be speaking with.
  • Recognizability: Use the same photo on your website, on LinkedIn, in your Google Business Profile, and in your quotes. That way, customers will recognize you everywhere.
  • One style for the whole team: If you're working with a partner or a team, make sure everyone takes photos in the same style. Read more about team headshots.

A modest craftsman with a strong visual presence

Kristof is a wonderful and (too) modest man. He’s not the type to jump on tables or seek the spotlight, but he is an expert in his field with integrity. That’s exactly what I wanted to capture in his business portraits and profile photos: professionalism and reliability, without any fuss.

So recently, we did some landscape photography of his face. The result: a series of great headshots and professional portraits.

For Ann, too

Also for his wife and partner in crime at Tuinen Joos, Ann Hendrickx, we took the perfect profile photo for her role within the organization.
