Service Description

Your headshot is your most important marketing tool as an actor. It is your calling card, first impression, and the single photo that can get you in the room for an audition. Our outdoor headshot service is designed to give you the dynamic, authentic images that casting directors, agents, and managers are looking for, with the added benefit of a natural, compelling backdrop. We understand that a great actor's headshot is not just a picture—it's a tool that showcases your unique personality and communicates your "type" and range. In our collaborative one-hour session, we will meet at a mutually agreed-upon scenic Washington, D.C. location, such as the National Mall, to capture various expressions and characters. You’ll walk away with a portfolio of looks that feel authentic, relatable, and can be used for different roles, from commercial to theatrical. What We Offer Tailored "Looks" in a Natural Setting: We'll work with you to plan wardrobe and styling changes to capture a range of character types. The natural light and dynamic backgrounds of D.C.'s iconic locations will add depth and a unique feel to your headshots, helping you build a portfolio that shows your full potential. Professional Direction: Our photographer will act as your on-set coach, guiding you through various expressions and emotions. We create a relaxed and fun environment that allows you to be natural and bring your genuine self to the lens. There are no forced smiles or stiff poses—just authentic moments that translate to the screen or stage. Controlled Natural Light: We expertly use natural light and a reflector to create flattering, professional images. The outdoor environment provides a versatile setting that can be adjusted to create a variety of moods and tones, from bright and sunny to dramatic and moody. High-Resolution, Retouched Images: You'll receive a curated selection of professionally retouched digital files optimized for online casting platforms (like Actors Access and Casting Networks) and high-quality printing. We focus on natural retouching that enhances your best features without changing your authentic look. Whether you're a seasoned professional or just starting, we're dedicated to helping you get the headshots that will get you noticed and help you book your next role. After you purchase, you must book your photography session within 30 days.
