What to Expect on your Headshot shoot

WHERE IS THE SHOOT?

This depends on what kind of shots you are after and what kind of preference you have. We can shoot indoors in our fully equipped studio or outdoors using natural light.

 

WHAT SHOULD I BRING TO WEAR?

We will arrange a time to call you ahead of your shoot to discuss possible wardrobe options. We will advise you on which colors to focus on and the style of clothing that will work best. Rule of thumb, no patterns, stripes, blacks or whites.

 

WHAT HAPPENS ON THE SHOOT?

When you arrive we will go over your outfit choices. We will have plenty of time to get you ready before starting. The shoot usually lasts 60-120 minutes depending on how many looks you need.

 

WHAT HAPPENS AFTER THE SHOOT?

After the shoot, We will upload your images to an online web gallery where you can view them. They will NOT be edited in any way shape or form. You choose which images you’d like us to retouch. I will then work on the selected images and will email you both a high and low resolution for both web and print.

Each look has one retouch included in the price.

 

RETOUCHING?

Retouching is an art just like photography itself. Though subtle, it takes precision, time, knowledge and skill to achieve a natural high standard retouch. We want to best represent you and a professional retouched image is key to achieving this goal. Therefore we will only provide copies of all finished images that are ready for professional use. 

 

We retouch your headshots to get rid of any pimples, uneven or rough skin tone, dark shadows, bags under eyes, stray hairs etc., keeping the pictures looking as natural as possible. We hear from many casting directors that they are disappointed when an actor/model walks in the room looking nothing like their headshot. It’s vital we don’t disappoint the casting director by overdoing the retouching. The casting director should feel that they are getting the real deal when viewing your headshot. Basically, you on your best day is my aim for the shoot.

If you would like many images from your shoot then we will be more than happy to offer a special deal for any more retouching.

 

I’VE BOOKED BUT I NEED TO CANCEL?

If you get a casting or a job for the day you’re booked in for a shoot let us know as soon as possible and we will reschedule for the next available time slot.
