Actors Headshots

Actors Headshots are the most important tool to market yourself as a performance artist to start booking acting jobs. Acting headshots are in a way, your first meeting with casting directors. The headshot photos are typically used by casting directors to cast a role for film or television work. Actors headshots must show how you look under the spot light. The lenses and lights I use will emulate the typical setup encountered on a movie or television set.

Curious where the form comes from? I wrote a short history of the actor headshot, from the studio portraits of 1930s Hollywood to the self-tape era: a brief history of modern actors headshots.
