Getting ready for your Actor Headshots

Being prepared for you photography session is important.

Hair for headshot photographs

I don't know how I can drive home the importance of your hair, Bad hair can ruin your whole shoot! Play it safe and go to the hairdresser right before the shoot. The actor's headshot will last for at least a year, don't be stuck with daggy hair. But... don't style your hair in an unusual way, look like you normally do, maybe a bit neater for your headshot photography, photo shoot.

Nails for headshot photographs

Please do not forget the importance of your hands in your portraits. Whether you choose to do your nails yourself or have them manicured, keep them clean and use coordinating colors. Photographs often show your feet as well.

Glasses for headshot photographs

If you wear glasses most of the time, you will want to wear them in your headshot photo. To eliminate glare or reflections, bring empty frames or remove the lenses from your glasses. We can take photos with and without the glasses.

Suntans for headshot photographs

Do not overdo the sun for a headshot photo. It looks great, but in moderation. Sunburn can be an expensive problem. It causes facial shine, red noses and cheeks, strap marks, hat lines and peeling, which are fixable but at an additional cost.
