Professional Actor Headshots

Professional actor headshots are important for landing gigs.  The headshot presents a professional image of you for directors.  They want to see if you fit a particular part for a play, commercial, or other production.  It’s helpful to have a variety of headshots as well.  A change of wardrobe, facial expression, and posing can present a variety of options for directors to see.  The more versatile you are the better your changes of landing a role.  Here are a couple other tips for actor headshots:

1. The headshot should be a true representation of you.  This sounds strange to actually write but you’d be surprised.  Make sure that if a casting director looks at a headshot and then sees you, the images match.
2. Be consistent.  If you have a certain look in your headshot and get a call for a part, keep that look consistent with your headshot.
3. Be professional.  Get a professional headshot from a photographer that specializes in headshots.  Lots of photographers shoot headshots.  Make sure the one you choose knows how to use lighting and posing to accentuate your best features.

Headshots for Lauren

Lauren is a young actor wanting to submit a headshot for acting roles.  She has already done a few things but wants more.  We had a fantastic session and she knew exactly what she wanted in terms of hair and makeup, lighting, posing, and expression.  We played around with lighting, posing, and expression to give her a variety of looks.  Her natural smile and ease in front of the camera were great.  I enjoyed working with her so much.  Her final images are smiling, serious, playful, and mysterious.  All my best, Lauren.  I hope to see you on the big screen someday soon!
