Philadelphia Acting Headshots
Acting headshots serve as your essential marketing tool in the competitive entertainment market of Philadelphia. Working with countless local actors from all over the area from Center City to the Main Line, I understand exactly what regional casting directors seek when reviewing headshots for film, television, and commercial roles. In my Philadelphia studio, I specialize in creating acting headshots that align with current industry standards, helping you make meaningful connections with casting decision makers. Every one of my acting headshot sessions includes personalized coaching on expressions that best showcase your range, along with expert guidance on wardrobe choices that work on camera. Through many years of working with Philadelphia’s diverse acting community, I’ve developed deep insight into crafting headshots that effectively demonstrate both your dramatic and commercial potential. We will both craft acting headshots to meet all of your requirements while authentically capturing your unique personality, setting you up for success!
Theatrical Headshots
Theatrical headshots require a distinctive approach to help show off not only your range but more importantly your personality. The Philadelphia theater scene, including venues like the Arden Theatre Company, Wilma Theater, and Philadelphia Theatre Company, requires headshots that effectively represent your stage capabilities and performance range. Your theatrical headshot session focuses on creating expressive images that command attention from directors and casting professionals while maintaining the natural authenticity stage actors need. Through direction and collaboration, we’ll craft headshots that translate your stage presence into compelling photographs, essential for theater season auditions and any repertory company submissions. Whether you’re pursuing roles in regional theater, touring companies, or local productions, your headshots should be crafted to highlight your unique theatrical abilities and character range.

Commercial Headshots
Commercial headshots require a style that resonates not only with casting directors but also with brands, agencies, and advertising professionals. In Philadelphia’s growing commercial market, casting directors look for a wide range of images depending on what they are casting for, but it is also good to have a general use headshot that works for most situations. Your commercial headshot should show natural expressions and confident body language. Through detailed direction and collaboration, we’ll create a variety of looks that showcase your commercial appeal and versatility – essential for lifestyle campaigns, brand ambassadorship opportunities, and corporate promotional materials. My commercial headshots are designed to show your personality as well as cover any specific character roles you are going for. My goal for the session is to get you all of the looks you need to market yourself in the Philadelphia acting world!
Philadelphia Actors Headshot Photographer
As a Philadelphia actor’s headshot photographer with a background in film, I bring technical knowledge to ensure you look the best you can in your acting headshots. My workflow includes getting to know my subject to help ensure we get images that are true to them. During each session, I provide real-time feedback and direction through tethered shooting, allowing us to see your images instantly on the computer and make adjustments. Understanding the requirements for film, television, and stage submissions enables us to create a diverse portfolio of shots for you. Actors, just like everyone else, also benefit from a little retouching for their headshots. That is why every headshot that you select is professionally retouched! Also, my studio’s Northwest Philadelphia location offers convenient access for actors throughout the Greater Philadelphia area, with flexible scheduling to accommodate any of your scheduling needs.
