Whether you’ve been performing for years or just getting your start, having a great set of headshots can make all the difference in getting the audition or being passed up. Your headshot needs to stand out among the crowd, so I combine great lighting with color to create a result that suits the look and jumps off the page/screen, along with posing tricks and exercises during the session to bring on genuine expressions that will draw eyes to you.

You’re not just smiling at the camera, but feeling something, making that connection, and the goal is for that resulting headshot to show that connection and make the viewer want to learn more about you.

My goal is to get you a set of head shots that stand out, so casting will give you a second look. In acting, there are many roles you can play. I like to work with actors to capture a wide range of character types, so you’re able to submit a headshot that matches the role type you’re submitting for. For example, a young adult might want to portray a teenager, a business professional, a young mom/dad, and/or an action hero. These will be different for everyone, but I’ll work with you to determine which types best suit you so you’re equipped with the perfect head shot when that big audition comes around.

While we live in a small film market in Minnesota, I’m always studying the trends in the big markets like Los Angeles, New York and Atlanta to make sure the headshots we create for you here will keep working for you if/when you’re ready to move into a major market, or if a large film project comes to MN - you’ll be ready!

It’s important to have a different headshot for commercials than you would for a serious theatrical role so it’s easy for clients to see you in their projects. With my most basic headshots session, we will capture smiling commercial headshots as well as a more dramatic shot for theatrical roles (film, TV, theater). I also work with musicians, models and other performers, and in these cases we may include an instrument or more full body poses to provide a balanced portfolio.

Below you’ll see results from some of my headshots sessions, so you can see the variety and range we’re able to capture.
