Unfortunately, yes.  Truth in advertizing: both of my hairs show up.  The sun tan is natural as well.  Photo was taken while I was building my barn, and I spent several mid-afternoon hours in God tanning salon.  Well, even the smile is genuine, so it is about the best I can do.

It absolutely does and is recent on my web site. I was surprised last week in meeting a new client referral. The first thing the husband said--positively--is that I look like my photo. I never gave it much thought before. However, just like I would never amplify the merits of a listing in the MLS because I wouldn't want the potential buyers to be turned off and suspicious of me, whatever represents me IS ME and was written by me about me. Before RE, I was a product marketing manager, but I am not photogenic and that part is a struggle.
