Book OnlineCasting-ready theatrical and commercial headshots that match how you’ll actually be cast — with real coaching in front of the camera.
Theatrical vs. commercial — and why you need both
Casting starts with your headshot, and the two main actor looks say very different things. Your theatrical look is grounded and honest — it reads for film and television drama. Your commercial look is brighter and more approachable, built for advertising and comedic casting. Most working actors carry both, and a two- or three-look session captures them in one sitting.
- Theatrical: neutral wardrobe, natural expression, story in the eyes
- Commercial: warmer, more energy, an easy smile
- Character looks: for actors who book a specific type
Coaching is part of every session
Most actors don’t need a better camera — they need direction. With 18 years behind the lens in LA, Joshua guides you through posture, angles, expression, and pacing so the images feel natural, not stiff. We plan your looks before the shoot and adjust in real time so you leave with frames you’ll actually submit.
Sized and ready for Actors Access, casting, and reps
Your retouched images are delivered sized for both print and web, ready to upload to Actors Access, Casting Networks, and your agency profile. Galleries are delivered within 24 hours via Pixieset so you can submit while your look is current.
