Show casting exactly who you can play—not just what you look like.

Bring 2–4 simple, solid-colored tops or outfits that make you feel confident and reflect the roles you want to book (e.g., casual for commercial, slightly more polished for theatrical). Avoid busy patterns, logos, bright whites, or anything too tight/revealing. I’ll guide you on choices during the session and can help mix layers for different looks. Pro tip: Solid neutrals, deep colors, and subtle textures photograph best.

For the most polished, natural results — yes, I strongly recommend professional hair and makeup. It helps create subtle enhancements that look like you on your best day, without appearing overdone. If you prefer to do your own, keep it light and natural (matte finish, no heavy shimmer). I can recommend trusted stylists or work with what you bring.

My most popular package includes 2 looks (different wardrobe + character energy) with 2 fully retouched images per look. You’ll leave with a strong range that shows who you can play — not just one “pretty” shot. We can add more looks if needed. You’ll choose your favorites from a private proof gallery.

Most sessions last about 45–120 minutes depending on the package. You’ll receive a private online proof gallery within 24 hours, and your final fully retouched images are delivered shortly after you make your selections. Quick turnaround so you can get them into casting hands fast.

Yes — I direct you the entire time. You don’t need to know how to pose or create expressions; that’s my job. I’ll guide you into natural, cinematic moments that show your real range and personality. Most actors tell me they feel surprisingly comfortable and end up with shots that actually look like them in a great role.

I do natural, professional retouching on all final images — skin smoothing, minor blemish removal, color correction, and subtle enhancements while keeping you looking like a real person casting directors can actually bring into the room. No heavy airbrushing or plastic-looking changes.

Yes. I've worked with actors submitting to local and regional casting agencies, Colorado film productions, and national commercial casting. I understand the difference between a theatrical headshot and a commercial headshot, and I'll help you figure out which looks serve your specific goals — whether that's episodic TV, indie film, theater, or print and commercial work.

Both. I've done first-ever headshots for actors just getting their feet wet, and refreshes for working professionals who've been in the industry for years. The session process is the same either way — relaxed, guided, and focused on getting you images you're proud to submit.
