Headshots for actors are like business cards. The are portrait images of yourself. They help casting director imaging you in a role. The best ones do more than just catch a casting director’s attention in the moment. A great headshot is also memorable enough to pop back into the casting director's mind the next time a role suited for your type crosses their desk.
You will need simple, fitted wardrobe options. Key items could include: A pair of jeans that fit you well, neutral tank tops or t-shirts (black, white, brown, grey), clean shoes. We will provide a packing list for your headshot session ad provide some wardrobe basics on set.
Clients and agencies want to know what you look like now! This means your headshot should be updated frequently! Typically, a yearly update is sufficient. Headshots can also profile you in different character types. For example, the headshot you submit for TV/film comedic roles may be slightly different than the one submitted for dramatic theatre roles.
Bring your tripod to capture behind the scenes content of yourself on set!
