So my glittering acting career ‘highlights’ include playing the lead in ‘Little Shop of Horrors’ at school, a naked corpse in Wycliffe murder mysteries and making the final 10 in the open Tank Girl movie auditions in 1992.
I loved acting and being on stage but soon discovered I was much more suited to studying the craft from the other side of the lens.
My work as a photographer has always held the performing arts at its very core. I photographed bands and musicians for a decade alongside my stint as the keyboard player in the indie band Derrero. I have worked with theatre, dance, circus, film, TV and music productions and regularly collaborated with the BBC arts projects.
It’s such a thrill to meet new actors arriving at my city centre studio in Cardiff for a head shots session. I get to interpret personality, to study features and body language and decide how best to capture every unique essence in a captivating way.
Your head shot is your calling card – it’s one of the first stages to getting yourself noticed by casting directors and as such is an essential investment in your career. Having professional, authentic headshots demonstrates how you value yourself in a competitive industry, to show you are anything but average. So it’s important to get it right without making your session a high-pressure situation. It can be a daunting prospect for any actor to turn up to a photography session and sit in front of a camera without script, costume or set. It can feel really exposing. Working in a comfortable and relaxed way I will explore your range in several studio set ups to achieve an engaged, self-assured and authentic outcome. There will be time for breaks, outfit or hair style changes and the kettle is always on.
The classic, standard black and white head shot is now becoming outmoded in favour of the US influenced commercial, colour branding style shot which gives great scope for a little more creative flair during your shoot and will result in a set of striking, contemporary images fitting for any Spotlight page.
