Headshots and Portfolio Sessions for Actors, Dancers, and Performers

I photograph actors, dancers, and performers throughout Los Angeles and Ventura County, creating commercial and theatrical headshots along with portfolio images that show personality, movement, and range.

My clients have used their images for agency submissions, casting profiles, auditions, representation, and professional portfolios. I have photographed talent with credits including The Black Phone, M3GAN, Stranger Things, Just Add Magic, Days of Our Lives, Blue’s Clues, and more.

Before becoming a photographer, I spent approximately 15 years working in the entertainment industry as a set mom. I worked on productions including Criminal Minds, Modern Family, The Orville, The Shrink Next Door, and Little Fires Everywhere.

That experience gave me a strong understanding of the industry, what is expected on set, and how important it is for talent to have images that support how they are being submitted and represented.

Get My Industry Secrets

Headshots Built Around What You Need

Every performer needs something different.

Some clients need a clean commercial look. Others need a stronger theatrical image, updated agency photos, dance headshots, or several options that show range.

Before your session, we will talk about your goals, current representation, the types of roles or jobs you are being submitted for, wardrobe, and the specific images you need.

During the shoot, I give clear direction while leaving room for natural expression, personality, and movement.

Sessions may include:

Commercial headshots

Theatrical headshots

Dance headshots

Full length portfolio images

Dance and movement photography

Character driven looks

Editorial portraits

Lifestyle images

Wardrobe changes

Indoor studio or outdoor locations

Hair and makeup referrals or on set hair and makeup

 

For Actors

Actor sessions can include commercial and theatrical headshots, character driven looks, and additional portfolio images.

We will plan your session around the types of roles you are being submitted for, your current representation, and what may be missing from your existing materials.

My goal is to create images that look like you and give your team useful options for submissions and marketing.

 

For Dancers and Performers

I photograph dancers both in the studio and on location.

Sessions can include clean headshots, full length images, movement, dance poses, lifestyle images, and more creative editorial work.

I understand the importance of timing, body lines, expression, movement, and photographing the full shape of a pose.

Dance and performer sessions can be planned around agency needs, auditions, professional portfolios, websites, social media, or personal branding.

 

Agency Tests and Portfolio Development

I am available to work with talent agencies on test shoots, headshot updates, and portfolio development for actors, dancers, models, and other performers.

Sessions can include commercial and theatrical headshots, dance headshots, full length images, movement photography, lifestyle images, and editorial portraits based on what the talent and agency need.

I am comfortable working from agency notes and collaborating with hair and makeup artists, stylists, managers, and other members of the creative team.

Tests can be planned around an agency selected model or performer, a specific portfolio need, or a broader set of images designed to show range.

Agency representatives are welcome to contact me directly to discuss current talent needs, test shoots, or future collaborations.

Session Options

One Look Mini

A simple option for an updated commercial or theatrical headshot.

Two to Four Look Sessions

Designed for actors who need more variety, wardrobe changes, or both commercial and theatrical options.

Custom Talent and Agency Sessions

Available for portfolio updates, model testing, multiple talent, or sessions planned around agency direction.

All sessions include a proofing gallery. Final retouched images are selected after the session.

Hair and makeup may be added based on the needs of the shoot.
