Actor headshot photography is a type of portrait photography that focuses specifically on capturing an actor’s head and shoulders. Actors typically use these photographs to showcase their looks and represent themselves in the entertainment industry, primarily for casting purposes. They are used by casting directors, agents, and other industry professionals to get a first impression of the actor’s appearance and help determine if they would be suitable for a particular role.

Testimonial : What Sarah said about our Actor Headshot Photography Service

Where do I even start? Colin is one of the most professional, hilarious and genuine people I have had the pleasure of working with that is extremely passionate about his work. Having had headshots done once before and it being a rushed and painful process (with the photos looking more like school photos then professional ones) I was dreading having to have them done again. However, my experience with Colin was far from that. He took the time to get to know me as a person, made me feel completely relaxed and guided me in the right direction to get the best possible head shots. His opinion was always honest and not once was I rushed. He is a perfectionist and takes pride in every single photo he takes. The results are amazing and I could not have asked for a better photographer to take my photos. Not only have I had endless compliments about them but I have also been signed to an agency and secured numerous auditions already and I feel that’s all down to Colin’s hard work. So thank you Colin I had a fabulous time working with you and I will most definitely be back in the future. 🙂

Biography Joseph Jordan

I am Joseph Jordan and I am from Bolton in Greater Manchester. I am currently studying at the Manchester School of Theatre, going into my third and final year. As a child I never knew what I wanted to do for a career, until at the age of 6 I started attending an amateur dramatic theatre school in Monton, Salford, which allowed me to review the prospect of acting for the first time. I knew straight away that this is what I wanted to do for the rest of my life! I have performed in many amateur performances from the age of 6 upwards and feel comfortable onstage and working with total strangers, which was something rooted into me from a young age. Thanks to my training in Drama School, I can safely say I am happy with my chosen career, and hope that my future is bright, as acting is all I want to do!

Testimonial: What Joseph said about our Actor Headshot Photography Service

Today I had my photoshoot with Colin for my actor’s headshots. I can sum up the experience with the following phrase: ‘Absolutely brilliant!’ Colin is a brilliant man; who was both charismatic and warm. He made me feel at ease and enabled me to enjoy my first ever photoshoot without feeling on edge at all. The photographs themselves are above and beyond what I ever expected and I can tell from the two hours that I spent with him that he is a man who knows his art inside and out, and cares deeply for what he does. I came away from the shoot feeling cheerful and excited, and I know that he will without a doubt be my first choice for a photographer in the future.
I have nothing but praises to sing for Colin and his passion and enthusiasm only furthers this!
Thank you Colin!

Testimonial: what Monika said about our Actor Headshot Photography Service

My morning with Colin and Rebecca was wonderful. When I arrived I was incredibly nervous having panicked about headshot day for the past week, but Colin immediately made me realise I had nothing to worry about. He took the time to find out what I wanted out of the shoot and as a team we worked together to achieve those looks. Rebecca’s expert skill with hair and makeup put my mind at rest, confident I was in safe hands. Colin never stopped when it came to attention to detail. So many lighting devices and tips he offered to get the best out of the moment. The only difficult part was trying to pick my choice from such a selection of great shots. I would definitely recommend and use his expert services again. Thank You Muchly!

Daniel Allen Biography

I was born and raised in Blackpool, Lancashire.

I am about to start my final year of drama school at the Manchester School of Theatre, graduating in summer 2016.

Testimonial – What Daniel said about our Actor Headshot Service

As an actor choosing their first photographer for head shots, I was initially filled with trepidation. After hearing many good things from friends in my drama school I contacted Neilson Reeves Photography. From the phone consultation right up to the shoot, Colin put me at ease straight away. His technical knowledge and down-to-earth character became immediately apparent. Colin created a fun, relaxed and informal working environment that allowed me to feel more confident in front of the camera, and the end results were above and beyond the levels of excellence I could have possibly imagined. I thoroughly enjoyed my morning working with Colin and will be recommending and relying on him for head shots for many years to come.
