Actor headshots, no photographer
A real frame from this shoot.
Casting directors want to see the person who will walk into the room: natural light, a plain top, no retouching that hides the face they will be hiring. Actor headshots from the Studio are built on that brief — clean, direct, honest to your features and shot at the crop agencies expect.
You want a set of headshots that show range — commercial warmth in one, dramatic stillness in another — without paying for two sessions. With the Smart Casual attire on a warm neutral wall preset selected, each run turns your selfies into actor headshots lit and framed the way a studio would light and frame them. The actor headshots you like can be retouched, moved to a different backdrop or upscaled for a printed program without shooting again.
What this session solves
- Your headshot is three haircuts and one decade out of date
- Commercial and theatrical submissions need different looks from the same face
- Agencies ask for updates faster than you can afford sessions
- Heavy retouching has cost you callbacks because you did not match the photo

How do I get a commercial and a theatrical look?
Run the tool twice: Smart Casual on Warm Neutral for commercial warmth, then Creative attire on Dark Charcoal for a theatrical read. Adjust the expression on each result with Expression Changer.
Is any retouching applied?
Not by default. The headshot is rendered from your selfies without smoothing. If you want temporary blemishes eased, Face Retouch keeps pores, freckles and character intact.
What do actor headshots cost in credits?
A Standard run from one selfie is 4 credits, plus 2 for each extra selfie you attach. Pro is 12 and Max is 44 for print-grade detail. New accounts start with 4 free credits.
