Hello everyone.

I know I haven't been on lately. Some of you might remember me from a while ago. It's nice to be back.

Anyway, I know this topic is somewhat over-asked, but I felt the need to ask for a few opinions from my trusty Backstage posters :-) I am going to be getting new headshots in the immediate future, and I wanted some help from you on which photographers to go with. I will supply a short list, but feel free to add any of your own with personal experiences. If you have any more information on those I list, please don't hesitate to add. Everything is helpful! Especially pricing - Either I'm inept or some don't list prices on their site. I'm 15, so please let me know if any of these don't work with teenagers.

Thanks for all your help :-)

She does the comp card pics for over 90% of Product Model Mgmt's models. She's the main photog that Product's agents recommend to their models actually.

Just an FYI. I just tried to book Nathan Blanley for my ds. He no longer shoots kids under 6 years old!

Nathan Blaney is FANTASTIC. His headshots opened many doors for my dd.

My son (3yrs old) just shot with Andrew Steinman, very good pictures!

Coolmom, just to clarify, Nathan is good and he shoots teenagers? Any information on the price?

Thank you all for your help! : )

Please keep posting, I'd love to hear all your opinions.

Has anyone ever used Regina Curtin? I was wondering how she was?

Nathan does shoot teenagers. I think his website is Blaneyphoto.com

While I have never used Regina, I have seen some of her headshots and they look awesome!

Agreed, castlerock. And she has some pretty impressive kid clients. We will be using her in a couple of weeks for my dd's new shots.

Regina did my oldest DD's hs and I love them as do our manager and agent. The hs she shot is being used for PR on a studio FF. We will be shooting with her again in a few weeks.

Yes, Regina's work is VERY GOOD!

Must have checked this thread before bed last nite... had a nightmare that we did headshots that ended up looking like porttaits. The photographer and his wife got really mad and were yelling at me that I didn't know what I was talking about, that the kids they shot were so successful... no more backstage before bed
