Okay....

I finally got new acting headshots. I'd love some feedback. I'll be using one smiley one as my commercial headshot and one non smiley one as my theatrical Wink

COMMERCIAL:





THEATRICAL












3/4 ones

personally, i like the first commercial, second theatrical.

but to make this note, and maybe it's just me, but the white eyeliner on the inside of your eyes is very distracting. the MUA didn't blend it in very well, and it probably shouldn't have been used for a headshot shoot, though it's very effective for a nightclub look and for helping eyes stand out in huge theaters. so i'd just get that retouched a bit.

My issue with most of the shots is that your chin is toooo far down in most of the shots. Do you have any where you're less chin down?

Also, I like to guess on what photographers shot things that people post. Where these shot by someone over at GreatHeadshots.com? Teren perhaps?

I forgot...I like the second theatrical shot because we get a clear look at your face. As for the commercial shots i would have to see some other options from a straighter angle.

I agree with david in that your chin is way too far down in those first few shots. It doesnt feel like you are connected at all because of the position and it actually looks like you are looking at something underneath the camera or viewer. Very strange angle with these and i also agree that the white eyeliner in distracting.

You look like you have great eyes and they really need to be connected to the viewer.
