Working with an expert will always present a number of perks you can make the most of. Many people do not think too much about headshots photography because it seems easy to take a snapshot of someone, but it is not always so. If you want to capture the essence that will inspire others, you have to find a headshots photographer to help.
A headshot is an 8x10 professional photograph of an actor, normally taken from the shoulders up to the head. Some actors also use three-quarter shots taken from the knees up to the head. They usually have the actors name printed on them. Actors staple resumes to the back, or you can get your resume printed directly on the back. Headshots can be black and white or color (although color headshots are very popular now).
Headshots are your business cards in the acting industry. You have to have them. No questions asked. Getting a really good headshot can be very frustrating. First, you have to choose a good photographer. Research the photographer. Call the BBB, check out the photographer's portfolio. Rememeber, not all photographers are experienced with actors' headshots! This is something that I learned the hard way. If you are viewing their portfolio, and you don't see any headshots, chances are that they don't know about headshots, even if they tell you they can do it.
Headshots prices range from photographer to photographer. Shop around before settling on one photographer. Also, some headshot sessions include hair and makeup, and some don't. If they don't, you will have to get these done on your own. Some headshot sessions include reproductions (physical prints) of the headshots and some don't. There also maybe what the photographer calls a "sitting fee". I have no clue what the purpose of this fee is.
I think it may be just a way for the photographer to earn some extra money for nothing. Its important to know everything that your headshot session includes. Ask the photographer to explain all of the pricing and details of the session in full BEFORE your take your pictures.
