Actor Headshots. Commercial and Theatrical.
The most important tool you have for getting work.
Every working actor needs a headshot that gets them seen, from first submissions through series regulars.
Your headshot goes into the room before you do. A casting director working through hundreds of submissions gives each one about two seconds, and it is the only part of your package that gets seen whether or not anyone reads the rest.
We direct every session for range, so you leave with looks you can actually submit.
Why Choose Peter Hurley Studios
The Industry Standard
Backstage readers have named Peter the best headshot photographer in New York multiple years running. He wrote the book on headshots, and photographers worldwide train to match the look. Peter was an actor before he was a photographer, which is where the whole approach came from.
Range in One Session
A corporate client needs one expression. You need a span of them, because you are not submitting the same face for the bad guy and the boy next door. We shoot for range, and if you come in with scruff we shoot it both ways before it comes off.
Direction, not Posing
Peter has never once told a client to smile. Everyone can spot a fake one, casting directors most of all. We direct you into a real reaction instead, so what lands in the frame reads as you rather than as acting.
