Best tips to a great head shot

The step-by-step process of how to get a great head shot begins with choosing a photographer.  In this video acting lesson, I walk you through the photographer selection process.

First in a 5 part series; watch this video and learn, what to look for, what to ask, and what to consider when choosing a photographer.

Here are some tips on how to make your face look its best!

FACE 

  • Study yourself in the mirror and practice expressions, especially your smile. Be on the lookout for too much gum showing, squinting your eyes, wrinkling your nose and forehead.  
  • If you smile all the time in pictures practice NOT smiling and visa versa. 
  • Practice full, ¾ , ½ smiles and closed lip smiles. 
  • Practice relaxing your mouth when it is closed. This will keep you from looking stern.
  • Please NO hands to your face or resting on your chin. 
  • Radiate warmth by thinking of pleasant thoughts 
  • Remember the camera is the winning BULLS EYE.  
  • Most important RELAX and HAVE FUN!! This is the quality that is attractive.
