Headshots 

In the time it takes to read this sentence an agent, casting director or producer will look at your headshot and either put it in the ‘Call In’ stack - or throw it in the trash.

It’s as simple as that!  Headshots are your most important link to working in television, film and theatre.  If they’re impressed with your picture they’ll turn it over and look at your resume - you have their attention.  Your expression has to be alive and confident - your eyes must sparkle.  A great headshot is an effective business tool - it’s not a glamour shot, it’s not a portrait and it’s not a favor shot by a friend.  It’s an investment in your career.
