Kids headshots and what to wear for your acting headshots

Child actors need headshots just like adults.  Even though they are still "kids" this is a business and all talent agents will require you to have headshots.  Most agents would like to see a few different looks.  This means your child actor will be photographed in several different outfits.  Typically child headshots are shot from the chest up, unless they are also a child model.  Here is an example of a young boys acting headshots showing different looks.  The first acting headshot is a "theatrical headshot" for tv and film roles.

This boys acting headshot can be used for commercials or print modeling. 

Some agents like to see a "skill shot" that they can use to pitch the actor for commercials that require a skill like sports, music, or dance.  If you are very skilled it can be good to add this look to your child's portfolio.  

If you are ready to get your child started in the industry, you will need to start with an excellent headshot.  Feel free to reach out to me with any questions or to schedule a shoot fill out the contact form on my website www.robinlorraine.com.  Once we determine a date and time, then I will send you a headshot wardrobe guide and tips on what to prepare for the shoot.
