Kelly Bergsma - Headshot Photographer In Perth
Kelly Bergsma - Headshot Photographer In Perth

Let’s talk about your headshot. The photo itself.
We have already established that your eyes are the most important factor of your headshot. The photographer’s job is to, first of all take a good headshot, but also work together with the actor to create that magic shot. That shot where your eyes tell a story and captivate the viewer.
There’s only so much that the photographer can do though, the rest is up to you, the actor. As an actor you have learned that non verbal communication is the most important form of communication. When you do it right in your acting, you can do it right during your headshot session. It’s about letting go. Less so for a photoshoot than an actual performance, but still.
I often ask the actor during a headshot session to think about a person or a memory or an event that can evoke a certain emotion. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t. Why? Well…because when you’re posing for a headshot in a public area, you’re too aware of your surroundings. If you get studio shots taken, you take that element away, but instead get a glamorous shot of yourself that might not sell you for a role in film & tv, but looks great in your livingroom. So outside in public areas, the photographer will try to avoid this when possible.
What does work? If an actor can’t feel the emotion by just thinking about a person or memory, the next step for me is usually to ask them to close their eyes and focus on that particular memory. Drop the smile completely, relax the face and just be in their own little bubble. Zoning out and thinking about the emotion created by a memory. Whenever they’re ready they can open their eyes and *click* hello headshot. :-) If you don’t feel the emotion, you won’t be able to show the emotion. I found that this a great way of getting you, as an actor, to focus and be in the moment. Don’t be too hard on yourself during a shoot. Take your time, focus. You want these shots to sell you as an actor. Feel it & show it.
Lately, I’ve noticed that actors, funny enough, don’t like to have their photos taken. Second, they don’t like to be in front of a camera. When you are doing a photoshoot as an actor, don’t see the camera as something that takes photos of you that you won’t like because you are self conciouss. See it as a window. A window in a room that you’re sitting in, in a comfy chair. You are looking out through the window and you see that person that makes you happy or a person that makes you very angry. If you’re channeling your dislike towards a certain someone, no you don’t have the option to open the window and yell out to that person. In other words, don’t smash the photographer’s precious camera.
Just think about these few things whenever you’re doing a photoshoot. It’ll help you during a shoot and that way you will get some amazing shots…just relax.
