Package
4. - "Up to date"
Package
Just had a
headshot session but are now
thinking about changing your
hair style? Braces due
to come off your teeth in a
couple of months but need
new photos for a awesome job
opportunity now? This
package is now your
solution.
For just one
up front session price and
you are entitled to up to
three 45 minute Portfolio
photo sessions within a 12
month period. One of
the biggest criticisms
Agents have about headshots
is that they are too often
out of date. They want
to see the same person in
real life as they see in the
photo. New
hair styles, new or removed
braces, or just simply
"growing up" means that you
need to have a new headshot.
Perfect for younger actors,
this package ensures that
your headshots are always up
to date. You pay the
one up front fee, and are
then free to come back a
second and third time over
the next 12 months for
another photo session.
* There
really has never been an
easier way to make sure your
photos work as hard as you
do to get you hired.
*
Additional
photo sessions must be
booked within 12 months of
the first session.
Unused sessions will be
forfeited. Session are not
transferable
Please phone

Appointment times
All sessions are strictly by
appointment only at our
Belrose studio.
Appointments are generally
available Tuesdays to
Fridays, with limited
Saturday times available.
Whilst ever effort will be
made to meet urgent
deadlines, it is advisable
to plan ahead and ensure
your headshots are always up
to date to avoid the
disappointment of missed
opportunities. Session
times may not be available
the same week that you call,
and same or next day
turnaround of images (if
available) will attract
an additional $75 fee.
What To
Wear
You headshot session allows
for several changes of
clothes. It is best to
bring a selection of outfits
to help you create a variety
of different looks. It is
better to bring more clothes
than we will end up using in
case certain items of
clothing are not suitable.
When choosing your
clothing, ask yourself the
following questions: What
image do I want to portray?
What sorts of roles am I
interested in? What is my
target age range? What do I
feel most natural wearing?
Generally it is best to wear
plain, dark clothes. A
plain black t-shirt or top
is strongly recommended, as
is a mix of casual and more
formal outfits
Avoid: Whites, (unless
under a jacket or shirt)
pastel/weak coloured tops,
or dominant patterns /
logos. Remember your
clothing should leave the
emphasis on your face
Make-Up & Hair
The most important thing to
remember is that you should
be yourselves in the
photos...the casting
directors expect the person
in the photo to walk through
the door. Only minimal
make-up should be worn for an
Actors
headshot photo session. A
light face powder is all
that is required to reduce
imperfections and
face shine from oils in the
skin. Any temporary
imperfections such as
pimples etc will be removed
in post production. You
will be asked to remove any
heavy or excessive make-up
prior to the photo
session. Hair should be an
everyday look, nothing
fancy, but neat. Avoid any
stray or ‘fly-away’ hairs.
Hair and make-up should be
done prior to your arrival
at the studio, but may be
touched up throughout the
shoot.
Those choosing a modelling
session are free to use more
elaborate makeup to suit
your desired image.
