While that's true to an extent if the photos are potentially embarrassing or suggest you might have bad habits (such as getting drunk all the time), on the other hand, I like to see business people in relaxed social settings -- again, as long as it is not embarrassing or something you'd regret down the road. I go by the Mom rule -- never put anything out there you might be embarrassed to have your Mom see published on the Web. Or a potential client. -- Anita I agree about this to a degree: “I don’t think your potential clients or customers want to see pictures of you in your swimsuit, drinking margaritas on your last vacation.”

Fun, innocent pictures of yourself are fine, but not ones where you are crazy and in inappropriate situations. Especially if you are nanny, that may raise a few questions you aren't prepared to answer. I think there is a fine line when it comes to what is accepted to be professional or not.

Nice point, "I don’t think your potential clients or customers want to see pictures of you in your swimsuit, drinking margaritas on your last vacation." I'm kinda torn on the matter with regards to that. I'm a firm believer in keeping business and personal seperate but there are times when it's enlightening to see a business associate in a relaxed personal environment, too. But we all know when too much is too much. Don't give me too much information and for goodness sake . . . please don't show me too much either! Funny story . . I used to work for a small, family run business and every year the owner invited the employees and their spouses to his house on the river. We enjoyed many good times there, until the owner had a bit too much to drink one year and exposed his bare rear end to everyone from the shores of the river. Agh! Working with him was never the same again :-) Ha, ha!
