<p dir="ltr">Hi all - I also already have a headshot, and am close friends with a few photographers who would donate, and have donated photos to the LP (including to candidates.) I strongly believe that Nick needs pro headshots, since he's the most obvious face of the party, and does quite a few media interviews as our official spokesperson. I could see the same being true of Carla and Wes. For the rest of the LNC, it is not yet as essential, in my view, since we don't do many more interviews than state chairs, candidates, etc.</p>
<p dir="ltr">In the past, LNC members who did a lot of media usually had their own headshots (including the notorious Wayne Root.) I'll decline having my headshot done at the next meeting.</p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt"><font size="3" color="black" face="Times New Roman"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">It sounds easy to ask
people to just go out and get a professional photo made. But the reality is,
not many people will actually get around to it. I've been meaning to get an
updated photo for myself for about 5 years. Two former Chairs never seemed
to get around to it. I'm glad Nick is going to make it happen.<br>
<br>
People are often already dressed up for LNC meetings and the photographer will
be right there, so 20 people don't have to individually find a photographer,
schedule a session, get dressed just for that reason, drive to a location, take
the trouble to email me the photos, etc.<br>
<br>
I think this is a good efficient use of funds. But, I'm guessing maybe 15
people will take us up on the offer, and probably 8 to 10 will contribute $100
or more to cover the costs. So I'm estimating we're probably looking at more
like $500 to $700 total cost to the LNC. We'll see.<br>
<br>
I'll contribute $100 at <a href="https://www.lp.org/contribute" target="_blank">https://www.lp.org/contribute</a>
to defray the cost for my photo, and I'll contribute $100 also, if Robert Kraus
also gets a photo made, after we receive the photos.<br>
