Teen Acting Headshot Session in Los Angeles

When scheduling a headshot session I like to ensure my clients come very prepared.  I normally send the headshot client wardrobe recommendations, inspiration and recommended colors and character types I feel they can play.  As a previous youth talent manager  for many years, I have a lot of experience knowing what type of acting headshots a casting director  responds to.

Here's an example of a teen actors headshot  session with a very handsome young teenage actor.   We worked out several different types and characters he could play and then shot accordingly with the appropriate expression and wardrobe.  Mom did a great job bringing a wonderful selection of wardrobe choices and the young actor did a great job working with me to get the shots.  Great team work translates into great headshots.

When it comes to shopping for your kids acting headshots session you may want to go to a few different stores and purchase a some items that may not be part of your kids normal wardrobe. I love H&M kids,  and Zara Kids for fun, colorful, textured clothing.  The sweater below is a great example. However, you may have plenty of wardrobe that is suitable already without spending additional money.  I do like parents to bring several different shirts, jackets, sweaters, etc., to give me choices.  And I will always try to save you money and use what you have if possible. Leave the tags on anything you purchase, as I may not use it.  Keep reading below to get more tips on teen acting headshots.

 I love the color of the sweater in this kids headshot and the v-neck works really well in the composition.   And the texture is fabulous!  The headshot below shows a completely different character and type in both wardrobe and expression.

Next we have a boy next door, enthusiasm, like-ability and energy in this headshot. The vivid blue has an energetic vibe and pops off the page.  This is a commercial headshot and it's very important that it radiates energy.

Here we have the quirky or character headshot.  Disney channel and Nickelodeon always have characters in their shows, but as well you can see this in commercials like this Verizon spot and Network shows like the Big Bang Theory.

 The headshot below works for the high school popular guy, jock, athlete as well as boy next door roles and or a good looking teenager role.

Creating different looks for your child's headshot session.

 This headshot in the purple t-shirt is great for both Disney and commercials.  It shows wonderful energy and his fabulous smile.  It definitely pops.

Wonderful color that pops in a commercial headshot look.

 And lastly the bad boy, trouble maker, darker, edgier headshot. 

This wouldn't be used for a main headshot, but rather as an additional look for an actors portfolio. 

 
Always keep in mind the colors and what it projects and the collars and necklines and what they project.  Jock or popular high school kid, edgy, quirky, smart kid, boy next door, trouble maker...they are all characters he can play.  With these headshots and the range they show, the talent agent can submit different images for different roles.

and a recent teen headshot photo session.

Working with teen actors is alway fun.  They usually bring a lot of creativity and fun energy to the shoot.

Teen acting headshots.

Most teen actors are pretty serious about their career and have been interested in acting for a long time.   Some are brand new to the game and some are seasoned actors who already have a strong resume under their belt.  One thing I see with most of them is that they already know where they want to go and and are working on their long term goals.

I recently photographed this amazing teen, Daschle Dunn.  Such a blast to work with him and wow, those eyes.  Here's a couple of headshots from his headshot photo session.

Teen headshot session.

So much fun working with this guy!  We laughed a lot during his headshot session.  Always love working with actors who bring joy to the photoshoot.

One of the tips I give to all actors is to be relaxed and have fun at the session.  If it's too serious we won't get your best shots.   I prefer that you put your attention out and on the camera rather then introverted and in your head about how you look.  I will give you guidance on posing and I want you too look great.  However, it's not just about being handsome or beautiful...it's about communicating with the camera and showing a piece of yourself.  Sometimes teenagers can become self conscience and more worried about their looks then young kids, but honestly the ones who don't worry, appear more relaxed & natural in their headshots.

Another thing to remember is that I do retouching on 4 headshots included in your package.  Blemishes, dark circles, yellowed teeth and general enhancement is included.  So if you end up with a pimple or a breakout the night before the shoot...don't worry. 

Dheonte did such a great job at his headshot session and there were so many to choose from.  And thanks to his mom who helped put together the perfect wardrobe!  She nailed it!  Great team work always ends up with great headshots.  Here's a few shots from his acting headshot session.

Commercial teen headshot chosen by agent.

Headshot for tv & film roles.  Typically the headshot for tv & film roles are serious or soulful shots.  They show more confidence.

Commercial headshot chosen by agent.  Commercials shots are typically very smiley and likeable.  They show a great deal of energy.

This headshot is good for both commercials and theatrical (tv & film) use.
