Actor Headshot Sessions Tailored to your Artistic Voice:

With over two decades of experience photographing actors in both London and Los Angeles, David brings a deep understanding of the entertainment industry—and the performer’s journey—to every shoot. A self-proclaimed “theatre kid” with a background in entertainment, he knows exactly what actors need to shine on camera.

David approaches each session like a director, speaking the language of performers and guiding them to bring subtle subtext and intention to every casting look. He loves to direct and guide you to find the perfect casting shot. His guidance is like the discovery of your character’s intentions in a scene. It’s also fun, we’ll have some good music curated and there’s coffee on site and always a fridge of cold drinks!

Our actor packages are geared towards performers but if you’re an artist or musician these can work for you too - drop us a line to chat as David loves to collaborate with all creatives.

I offer guidance on wardrobe looks and each session is tailored to what your looks are - so backgrounds and lighting will be based around what you bring to the studio.

I always recommend bringing some casting looks that serve a broad range of casting brackets.

My goal is simple: to create standout headshots that capture your essence and get you seen!
