How does an artist distinguish their abilities from other artists ?
Through their art of course !
So why not distinguish their business cards with their art too ?
Just take a photo of your art and use it on your business card.
Here is an example of a painter artist’s business card using a photo of one of their paintings:

Seems to just make sense.
As an artist, you will always have new fresh art to present. Why not keep your business cards fresh with a photo of your latest art.

Maybe you have invested is a luxury apartment or a 2nd home in a wonderful location which you will only be able to visit occasionally. So you would like to rent it out when you are not there. One way to advertise it is to hand out business cards. Here is a photo business card with this in mind:

Some thoughts on this design:
- photo grabs attention and shows beautiful location of apartment
- titles tell what it is about
- contact information is complete with website address offer more information
Without the photo would this business card be able to express as much about the French Riviera when this apartment is ?
Why not use this idea for any property rentals that want to highlight an important characteristic about location – location – location!

Here is an example of a tour guide using photos on her business card which:
- show her smiling and friendly self
- shows a destination of for her tour services
There is not enough room on a business card to say all that this photo design says.

She includes a title which tells what she does and the critical contact information which in required for any business card, but her photo images communicate so much more!
