Why Should I Get A Headshot?

Agencies need to see an updated version of you

We want to see what you really look like! Agencies generally require that you get an updated headshot whenever you've made a major change to your appearance. This could include coloring your hair, cutting or growing out your hair, and getting permanent tattoos or piercings near or around the face. Actors and models should consider getting new headshots about every 6 months to ensure they have an updated picture of themselves. In order to land a gig, you need an updated picture of yourself that is professional and shows you in your best light!

Get Your Headshot with Three Easy Steps:

1. Book a session that fits best with your schedule.
2. Get your picture taken with ease.
3. Download your photos using an online link.

How to Prepare For Your Session

Choose a Character

Your headshots are often used to help you get a role or land a job. In order to optimize this approach, you will want to consider what your character type is. What character roles would you most likely be cast as in a movie or production? You will then want to design your outfit, style, and overall look accordingly. This will help you to optimize the impact that your perfect picture will have. 

Hire a Makeup Artist

When you are preparing for your perfect picture, you will want to ensure that you look your best. A makeup artist has the expertise to ensure that your makeup presents the most gorgeous, natural appearance for your photoshoot. When you work with a makeup artist, you will put your best face forward, which can greatly enhance your finished product. This includes men, in addition to women. Everyone should look their best when preparing for a photo shoot. If you need a recommendation for makeup artists, please contact me.

Get Familiar With Your Angles

You’ve been taught that it’s vain to spend too much time studying yourself in the mirror, but this is exactly what we want you to do to prepare for your photoshoot. When you know your angles, you will be able to pose appropriately and create the ideal image that you desire for your headshots. Consider which side of your face you like the most. It can also be useful to determine what looks better with your particular facial structure. Practice posing with your chin tilted up, tilted down, to the side slightly, or in any other angle that you think of. This will go a long way toward improving your final outcome and achieving the effect you are wishing for. When you are getting a headshot, you are essentially modeling your face to the camera. By practicing beforehand and learning about your angles, you will ensure that you are comfortable doing so and know what works best for you.

Use a Variety of Expressions

Using a variety of expressions can be extremely useful in improving the impact of your photos. You don’t want to be using the same expression in each photo. By practicing a variety of expressions, you can convey your versatility and better market yourself. A headshot session is generally intended to provide you with variety. You will be able to get multiple different looks and even some outfit changes. In order to optimize this, it will be important to ensure that you are also practicing multiple facial expressions. Try taking one with a smiling expression, another with a serious expression, and even one with a “moody” expression. This will give you a variety in your headshots.

Avoid Bold Colors and Patterns

The clothing that you choose will have a significant impact on the aesthetic that you will achieve. When you wear colors that are too saturated, they will be distracting. With headshots, the aim is to frame your face. You don’t want to wear anything that will diminish this impact. In order to provide the ideal appearance, you will want to choose an outfit that has muted or pastel colors. You should also avoid clothing that has patterns or any other flashy aspects, such as sequins or particularly shiny materials. You don’t want outfits that will distract or take anything away from your face.
