Actor Headshots That Land Auditions
Your headshot is your calling card. Casting directors flip through hundreds of submissions — a compelling, authentic headshot is what gets you in the room. I specialize in capturing the real you, not a stiff, over-produced version.
What Casting Directors Actually Want to See
I've worked with actors at every stage of their career — from first headshots to refreshes for working actors. Here's what matters.
Authenticity Over Perfection
Casting directors want to see YOU — not heavy retouching, dramatic filters, or a version of you that doesn't walk into the audition room. I keep it real.
Eyes That Tell a Story
The best actor headshots have life behind the eyes. I direct you through subtle expressions and emotional shifts so your photos show range, not just a pose.
Current and Accurate
Your headshot needs to look like you TODAY. Same hair, same weight, same energy. When you walk into the room, they should recognize you instantly.
Actor Headshots From My Studio
Theatrical, commercial, and character looks — all shot in my Camarillo studio, just off the 101.
Theatrical vs. Commercial — You Need Both
Theatrical Headshot
- Intense, dramatic, or emotionally charged
- Shows depth and range as a performer
- Darker, moodier lighting is common
- Best for film, TV drama, and theater submissions
- Casting directors want to see your raw ability
Commercial Headshot
- Warm, approachable, and friendly
- Natural smile — the "person next door" look
- Bright, clean lighting with simple backgrounds
- Best for commercials, print ads, and hosting
- Brands want someone relatable and likeable
Most actors need at least one of each. I coach you through both looks in a single session.
