Authenticity is the key to a great headshot. When I moved to Los Angeles and decided to start a headshot business, I spent a long time looking and listening. I looked around at what other photgraphers were doing, and I listened to what agents, reps and casting directors were looking for in a headshot. It all came down to authenticity. Your headshot needs to be a reflection of who you are as an artist, it needs to be a compelling photograph that can suggest a story in the imagination of the casting director. And most importantly, it needs to look like you.

That last point may seem obvious, but I still see a ton of beauty shots masquerading as headshots.  

A headshot gets you in the room. Plain and simple. But if the person who walks into the room doesn’t look like the person in the headshot, you probably won’t get the part. Worse yet, you risk annoying the casting agent for wasting their time.

I can do glossy beauty shots, and have done so for publication for a long time. If that’s what you’re looking for, check out my portrait section on this site or my editorial website.

But if it’s a headshot you’re after, one that will get you the roles you want, my natural documentary style will provide you with a set of compelling photographs that spark imagination and will get you hired.
