Hey so I've just received all my headshots which I took last week and I need some help choosing. There are a lot and I do plan on posting the ones I pick later on for constructive criticism. So I completely understand if you don't want to look through all of them! I just figured I'd post the link and see if anyone would. So yeah anyways thanks in advance and sorry there are so many...

Holy head-shot overload, batman!

Good look. I like the ones at the top where you are smiling.

I liked the smiling ones- a lot. You look very comfortable. I liked 88 in particular- the energy was great in that one. Smiler

But the theatrical ones- no good. Very flat and a certain sameness to all of them. An outfit change would have been a good idea too, something a little sharper than that plain t-shirt.

These are supposed to SELL you remember. You are up against 10,000's of people and you have maybe three seconds if you're lucky (usually less) to catch someone's eye.

Would you wear that t-shirt to meet with a manager or agent? Is that the best thing you had in your wardrobe?

Exactly. Time to treat this like a business, because that's what it is.

ALWAYS be camera ready.

You are indeed quite pretty, and you certainly have some usable shots in here.

I think Miss Stone's point about the outfits is dead-on; it would be so nice to see some variety in terms of what you are wearing. The purple top is fine, but what else is in your closet?

My favorites of these are in the 40-range, that is, photos 41-49, give or take. I think you look more relaxed in these and we get to see your nice smile. I also like the framing of these best.

Some of the later ones, where you are leaning against the wall, force your body into a strange position, IMO, and don't flatter you as well.

Best of luck to you!
