A Sharp Photo - Great Headshots

If you are an actor, you need a great headshot.  This is normally the first step for casting directors as they are trying to cast roles.  Your headshot gives the casting director a preliminary way to 'see' you in a given role.  But, other people in other lines of work can benefit from a stellar headshot as well.  If you own a business, this is how you can give new customers a glimpse of who you are.  If you use LinkedIn, a great headshot can grab the attention of someone who sees your profile.  A solid, natural looking headshot can even be beneficial on a dating site.  Here are a few tips to put your best face forward:

- Wardrobe
Make sure that your clothing is clean, pressed and in good repair.  While a headshot is generally head and shoulders, when you are well dressed or comfortably dressed from head to toe, it affects the way you carry yourself.  Stay away from busy patterns or trendy clothing as the image will become dated as styles change.

- Hair
Make sure your hair is styled prior to your session.  When you know you look good, you show it.

- Its all in your head
Its nigh impossible to show what happy/confident/friendly/trustworthy look like.  But, we can all feel those thoughts/emotions and when you genuinely feel them, they show up on your face.


If you live in the Orlando area, this is a great deal for you to take advantage of.  Call or email the information on the flyer to reserve your spot.
