This is my original way of working (prior to introducing the basic option in 2010). Same 1-4 hour shoot, indoors or out (see info page). After the shoot, I will sort the photographs – by putting them into different folders in order of preference, and eventually narrowing it down to what I reckon are the 8 best shots. These will be a range of different styles to suit the kind of castings that you might be going up for. These 8 will also be retouched - eyebags reduced, unusual belmishes and stray hairs removed etc. I then stick everything on a CD – retouched shots plus everything else, in order of preference - and post it to you. This takes approximately 7-14 days.

Why do I work this way: I've found that from experience, clients often find it difficult to be objective when it comes to looking at hundreds of photographs of your own face. Often shots which would work brilliantly for castings can be overlooked in favour of choosing ones that flatter particular features. Being a headshot photographer and also an actress, I'm very familiar with the best qualities to look for in a headshot. And even if you disagree with the 8 that I pick out, it's still infinitely easier to pick your best shot as the rest of the photos on the disc are ordered according to how good I think they are. You are also welcome to have an additional 2 shots retouched on top of the 8 that I’ve already finished. Everything on the CD (retouched and non-retouched) is provided in full high resolution, print quality.

I can also do an express service if you'd like to go for this option, but need the shots on a faster turnaround. Email me to discuss a quote.

Same set up as the premiere option – but with the addition of portfolio shots; this can include normal headshots plus pretty much anything you want (within reason and legality). E.g.: Dance portfolios, fashion & beauty modelling, musician portraits, couples portraits, lingerie, nudes... this goes more into the realm of my fine art and exhibition work. This option is by special arrangement only – email me to discuss your requirements.
