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 About our Actor headshot Service

The Shoot with Colin was brilliant, he has a personality to put you at ease and a passion to create a set of photographs that are right for you.

Nothing was too much trouble and encouraged you to play around and try out different looks and outfits. His knowledge of lighting and how he explained what he was doing meant you knew you were in good hands.

I couldn’t recommend Colin more.

The headshots look great!

Testimonial about our Actor Headshot Service

I’ve worked with photographers in the past but none like Colin. Colin is exceptional, he is a perfectionist and is always trying to capture the perfect image. An Actors headshot should capture what he/she sells and Colin knows exactly how to capture it, you name it and he will adjust everything to capture that look/mood. He has so much experience behind the lens I can’t think of anyone better for the job. I had a great time working with Colin, he made me feel completely relaxed during the entire shoot and his direction was brilliant, it reflects in every photo out of the hundreds that were taken. When the time comes that I need new head shots, I will definitely be using Colin again.

Testimonial: What Joe Tracini said about our Service

I’m so pleased that I got in touch with Colin for my Headshots. His stuff stood out from the rest as all of his shots were original, bold and effective. I was with him for 2 hours and had such a relaxed, fun afternoon in a perfect environment for getting some natural pictures at an incredibly affordable rate. Nothing was rushed, and Colin was constantly asking my opinion and thoughts on what he’d shot so far. The pictures I ended up with are the best I’ve ever had, and they look like me (some might not see that as a positive)! I’d recommend him to anyone. Thanks Colin! Hugs etc.

Testimonial – What Kris said about us

I was recommended to Colin by my agent Natalie (Payne Management)  Headshots are all about capturing you and what you sell as an actor and Colin completely understands this. Colin is meticulous in getting the brief right and his passion, energy and enthusiasm is infectious. I felt totally relaxed through-out the shoot as you feel like you’ve known Colin for years.

I was sent the link within 12 hours of the shoot taking place and it took me and my agent three days to choose the final selection because they were simply phenomenal.  Thank you!

If you want to work with someone who is a perfectionist, who will encourage you, deliver brilliant results and FUN then get in touch with Colin.
