Actor Headshots
That Get You in the Room
Professional actor headshots in London.
Spotlight-ready, retouched, and delivered fast.
What to expect
We shoot for the brief, not just the portfolio
A lot of headshot photographers shoot for their own portfolio. We shoot for yours.
That means the conversation before the camera comes out matters. What have you been putting up on Spotlight? What are you being called in for? What do you want to be called in for? The session is built around those answers.
We'll push you when a look is working and tell you when it isn't. That's the job.

Preparation
How to get the most from your session
A bit of prep before the day makes a real difference to what you walk away with.
-
Keep outfits simple. Solid colours work best. Avoid busy prints or logos that pull focus from your face. Bring 2 or 3 options and we'll decide together.
-
Skin prep matters. Drink water the day before. Avoid heavy alcohol or anything that affects your skin. Arrive fresh-faced and we'll handle the rest in post.
-
Think about your type. What roles are you going up for? What do you want to be going up for? The clearer you are on this, the better we can direct the session.
-
Check your current shots. Look at what you've got on Spotlight before you come in. Know what you're trying to replace or add to.
-
Don't rush the morning. Arrive rested if you can. A tight schedule before the shoot shows on camera.
-
Trust the process. If you haven't had professional headshots before, it can feel uncomfortable at first. That's normal. The first 20 minutes are the warmup.
