About

Hello and welcome! If you've found your way here, chances are you are an actor, and I love actors! Photographing actors and helping you achieve success is what drives this business. There is a whole world that goes into a great headshot, and a whole new world that can come out of one. My mission is to create headshots that will truly reflect your personality, share who you are with the world, and get you in the doors of your dreams. This means a headshot that really speaks. How do we do this? Experience and collaboration.

Take a Great Headshot

Your headshot is your most valuable and necessary tool. It's a CD’s first impression– your essence in a single frame, and it will walk through the door (or screen) before you do. So a great headshot needs to reflect your unique, authentic self with detailed specificity. It should speak to who you are and what you offer. Let it be your voice to the people who are listening.
