What Our Happy Clients Are Saying

Reviews

Nancy Heleno

My 13-year-old son is in Vancouver from the States shooting a TV show. His Los Angeles manager needed updated head shots; my son is moving through puberty and his features are changing quickly. Carlos was recommended to us and after reading the Yelp reviews we took a chance without having met him. As the only under-18 actor coached by two well-regarded acting coaches, my son was thrilled to learn, in the first few moments of their meeting, that Carlos is a “Method Photographer.” With years of Method Acting coaching, my son was right at home with Carlos. My son’s manager was extremely pleased with the shots specific to the emotions they desire for casting directors. The results were excellent, and the process was as well. Carlos is kind, putting my son at ease which allowed him to find the emotional depth necessary to make the shots compelling. Top Notch!

I wasn’t succeeding with my old headshot until ‘Art of Headshots’. My first audition I landed a role in Pirates of the Caribbean, my second audition it was X-Files and my career started… Now I have a role in Altered Carbon and a career as a film actor.

Our son does acting and needs to get headshots made from time to time. We found The Art of Headshots online. The web-site seemed to be well setup and easy to navigate. We found the right package and scheduled a convenient appointment. The pricing was very competitive. It wasn’t until we attended the appointment that we realized the real value. The photographer was very experienced. He guided our son to show various expressions and captured some really amazing photographs. Everything about this company, from the intuitive website to the friendly editor and administrator, to the superior quality of the edited headshots has been exceptional. My Son got a role with SuperGirl immediately upon his first audition.
