Why the Headshot Strategist®
Did you know that within the first few seconds of seeing your picture, people will have already decided if they want to continue to get to know more about you or just scroll on? That’s right, that is why your headshots and images are so important.
The Headshot Strategist® Session is designed to identify what you want your target viewing audience to know about you from the start and we make a plan to accomplish that. So you can start making an amazing, impactful first impression.
Stand Out... Get Noticed!

How it Works:
I take a slightly different approach with headshots than some photographers. I am all about effective, marketable headshots! In order to accomplish that, I have developed a program called The Headshot Strategist®. This program is included with your headshot session.
Headshot Strategist® Program is a 1-hour Video call session that you will schedule before you come for your headshots. We will focus on where you are now and where you are going in your acting career. You will get a clear understanding of how to get headshots that are effective and marketable for you. I will show you how you can use your headshots in your marketing strategy. This session also includes nailing down wardrobe, types, looks, and much more.
To make this process as easy and thorough as possible, I have put everything in one place. Just click the button below, set up an account and this will walk you through every step of the way.
