Resume Pictures

Help! I am going through recruitment at a very competitive SEC school. I need some advice on pictures for my recommendation package.

** I found the following in another thread, but I still have a question that I hope you ladies can help me with. My pictures follow these guidelines...
**Also bear in mind - no pets, no multiple friends in a pic, no boyfriends, no lying on the railroad tracks (yes, we got a picture like that a few years ago - you don't want to be train girl).

I had a photographer make business cards with my portraits on the front and my name, email and phone number printed on the back. I love the way the cards turned out, but my concern is that they are going to be too small. The cards about an inch wide and about 2.5 inches long. I think the pictures are large enough to see who I am. I just don't want to get lost in the shuffle of tons of girls. One of the things I loved about the cards is that it fits perfectly in the top corner of my resume. I tried larger pictures and the packet just looked a mess. What do you think. I am just second guessing myself. Most everyone I know just used a head shot of their Senior portrait. Thanks so much for any advice!

Head shot from senior portrait is perfect size. It should NOT be a glamour shot. They want to be able to recognize you when you walk in the door. The business cards are a cute idea but not appropriate for this purpose. Also a 4 x 6 snapshot is fine. You may also end up emailing them so be sure you have an electronic copy.

Thanks so much! I love the cards, but I want to make the best impression. I'm sure I can use them for tons of other things. Again, thanks for your help.
