Image is Everything for Actors and Models

Your headshot is your first impression for casting directors and modeling agencies. Make your first impression count and stand out from the crowd. A cheap unprofessional headshot is a quick way to being forgotten and conveys that you are not serious about your career. Directors and agencies see hundreds of headshots and instantly know the difference between a quality headshot and something not shot by a professional.

Studio Headshots will instantly make you stand out

Outdoor headshots, while cheaper, are also much more common and limit the amount of looks you can get. There are over 1000 photographers in the DC area but the number of photographers with studios is less than a few dozen. A studio headshot will instantly make you standout and convey that you are serious by your willingness to invest in your career. Studio headshots will be cleaner, more polished looking and you won't have to worry about the weather on the day of your scheduled shoot. You can get a greater variety of backgrounds, lighting, and looks in studio which will really help you stand out from the crowd of outdoor headshots.

A high-quality headshot leaves a great first impression

Your headshot is easily the most important marketing tool for your career! Keeping them up to date and looking amazing will open new doors. It takes less than 1/2 a second to make a first impression - what impression does your headshot make? You won't get a second chance to make a great first impression.
