A headshot that captures your essence…

is the deciding factor when Casting Directors are reviewing submissions. Your headshot is your business card as an actor. Specific looks for specific character submissions are a smart choice, but make sure your main theatrical and commercial headshots show the real you!

INFORMATION

+ "LOOKS"

A 'look' is one outfit. For 1-Look, 2-Look, and 3-Look shoots, this means adding/removing wardrobe items/layer pieces (i.e. jacket, sweater, shirt, hat, etc), changing hair/makeup, and changing headshot backdrop constitutes another look. The only exception is removing one accessory piece i.e. glasses, ties, jewelry pieces.

+ SPECIAL REQUESTS AND TIPS

  • The Actor's Collective's extensive industry know-how has garnered us the ability to achieve photos that capture the best YOU. That being said, all lighting, framing, and visual aesthetics have been carefully decided to capture the best headshot possible, and are at the sole discretion of The Actor's Collective. We are happy to be mindful of certain elements when shooting per a reps request (i.e. no bright backdrops or solid colors, no hair lights etc). However, we do adhere to our shooting style as we stand by our standard of quality and product.
  • Please come to your shoot without guests/friends/reps. We do not allow guests during shoots. (Minors with a parent excepted)
  • We do not allow outside Hair or Makeup Artists.
  • If you are doing a facial hair change, that is a-okay! You can even add an additional 30-Min if you need more time!

+ HELPFUL HINTS

  • Show up on time! We do not have a grace period.
  • If you are doing your hair and makeup at home, please come hair and makeup ready so we can maximize your shooting time.
  • Let’s listen to some music. Bring a playlist! This is your day, we get how stressful it can be.
  • Unsure of what wardrobe to bring? Please bring as many options as you can. We push for an emphasis on layers, no logos, and please steer clear of busy patterns. Each shoot includes 5-10 minutes of pre-shoot wardrobe planning. If you'd like more time to plan out looks, please add an additional 30 minutes.
  • Gentlemen! Please, make sure you come with your skin exfoliated, moisturized, and we highly suggest - at minimum - a light BB Cream.
