Headshot Photography
NYC Headshot Photographer
Headshots for actors, creatives, professionals, founders, and public-facing people who need images that feel current, useful, and true to them.
Who headshots are for
This page is for people who need a strong current image for casting, LinkedIn, speaker bios, websites, press materials, proposals, creative submissions, or professional profiles.
Sessions are directed clearly, with room for personality and a pace that does not assume you already know how to pose.
What headshots help with
- Updating professional profiles and websites.
- Creating actor or creative submission images.
- Replacing old headshots that no longer feel accurate.
- Giving public-facing work a more confident, human first impression.

FAQ
Do I need to know how to pose?
No. Gareth will direct you throughout the session. The aim is not to force one version of confidence, but to find images that feel natural and useful.
Can headshots be planned for different uses?
Yes. Include whether the images are for casting, LinkedIn, websites, speaking, press, or another use so the session can be shaped around that need.
Is this welcoming for LGBTQIA+ clients?
Yes. Sessions are planned with respect, comfort, and care for people across gender, sexuality, race, background, body type, age, and identity.
Can I ask about cost before committing?
Yes. Pricing is handled by inquiry because scope depends on location, usage, image needs, and deliverables.
