Make Sure Your Actors Headshot Looks Natural

Don’t Go Crazy With Retouching So you’ve just had your actors headshots done and are really happy with the results but, you feel like they could do with a little extra ‘shuzzing’ you want to make sure they’ve got ‘The Wow Factor’. Nothing too crazy, just tidy up a few little pimples and the laughter lines around your eyes that have started to appear recently. You suggest this to the headshot photographer and they are quite happy to retouch them for you. You tell them what you want and they reply; “sure no problems I’ll just tickle-up your headshot and make you look great” you feel happy that they are going to retouch their own photos and leave feeling confident.

Have headshots changed since they first started being photographed?

I went to the opening of the fantastic exhibition ‘Salt and Silver’ at the Tate Gallery earlier this week; first off what a brilliant introduction to the very origins of photography developed by Henry Fox Talbot. One thing that occurred to me when looking at some of these extraordinary prints from 150 years ago was how much a good photograph stood out from an ordinary one. I’m not saying there were any bad photos here because there weren’t, but some were more special to me as a ‘people photographer’ than others.

Is this fair and do you feel like you re on a production line? Your session should be about you, your headshot and how you and the photographer can work together to deliver some great headshots. I don t think your session should be about anything else, it shouldn t be about a factory shoot where every person who goes to that photographer, leaves
