...we aren't into subtlety.
They are probably in some file on your desktop you have not deleted for god knows what reason.
Or perhaps you're one of us who has them stashed in a manilla envelope a-la real housewives, except you are never going to use them again.
Maybe this is your first time getting real legit headshots.
Regardless, it's time to level them up. Meaning making them match who YOU are right now. YOUR actor goals. And making a plan you can show up with from the moment you walk into the studio door.
and we catch ourselves asking these questions over and over...

DON'T WORRY, YOU'RE IN THE RIGHT PLACE
As two people who have held the hands of a lot of actors in the process of up-leveling their packages...and who have a closet full of mistakes of their own...we realized teaching this class only to our Membership was a bit of a gatekeep, and that's not our style.
So we took all the advice we have been given, all the actors we have helped, and the work we have done with each other to make one Headshot Class.
let's allow acting to be the hard part.
Let's break it down
01
prep like a pro
Before class, all participants will receive our homework assignment. This is designed as a deep-dive into your personal self and your casting. As well as getting info from (a few) trusted sources in your actor-sphere. This will make our work-time super efficient.
02
the meat of the matter
Class itself will be live on Zoom February 16th at 2pm EST / 11am PST. We will cover exactly what casting sees on their end (and how to use it to your advantage), personal examples from both coasts, and a step by step process of how to use The Guide, plus in-session work time to put it in place. We’ll also select a member (at random) and do a live walk-through of their guide!
for now and later
This is a live class, but we also want you to be able to use the work we’ll be doing on all of your future headshot sessions as well. So everyone get's a PDF download of The Guide, which will layout exactly what shots you need and all the details to get them. Perfect for sharing with your photographer and makeup artist so you're all on the same page for the most successful shoot.
04
if you want more
We don't typically offer discounted 1:1 sessions with us, unless you are in The Membership. But everyone who purchases The Headshot Class will be offered super-discounted 1:1 sessions with Sam or Gabrielle to review your Guide and make sure you are 110% set for your headshots, plus any extra Qs you may have. We got you.

ok sure but
nada. this class is recorded so you can rewatch it or catch it later if you have to miss the day.
tbh we want you to save so much money and time. taking semi-prepped photos is a waste of both.
real reviews from our actors...
austin brown gibbons
before the class i felt like i had a good knowledge of what a headshot was...
but now I feel more informed! my fav example was the three different white t shirts and how that can effect your essence look & different characters. my biggest takeaway was the essence piece and how your headshot is so unique to you!
troy henry
literally we were given a road map...
in The Guide! A step by step guide to facilitating a personalized look of "essence" to act as your calling card for both the Theatrical and Commercial space!
Nicole Orabona
I feel so excited to get new shots...
Cristina Leone
before the class i felt insecure...
now i feel confident and motivated! My biggest takeaway is that what you think are simple steps in the is whole process are not! Every part of this journey need to be done with effort, research, and TIME. You can't half ass anything to get to a goal more quickly. This was so great, thank you!

CANCELLATION
POLIcy
cancel up to 5 business days before the class
We know actor life if bonkers. And we are also really confident in our work. So you can cancel up to 5 business days before The Headshot Class for a full refund. But tbh the call is recorded so...up to you!
you are ready to get current headshots
you want time in your schedule to get this process done
you are ready to leave the panic-sessions behind
you prefer to 'f*ck around and find out' with pictures
you feel super confident in styling your own headshots to match your essence
you would rather be told you what to do instead of be led to make your own choices
How much does it cost?
the Headshot Class is $197 and we have a payment plan or pay in full option.
what if i can't make the call?
the Headshot Class will be recorded and sent out to all participants. We know how wild our day to day schedules are, trust!
we are a small business so we ask that all participants buy individual access. Please respect our work so we can respect yours!
depends on where you are in your pursuit. if you already have foundational training and are looking for help in your next steps, then yes!
for sure. we have actors in small markets all across the US. and since their creative community is really limited, having guidance on headshots is powerful.
honestly...we don't know! this is the first public class we have taught outside of The Membership. Probably is our best answer!
everyone. no matter your race, ethnicity, background, or gender identity.
unless you're an asshole in which case, bye!
this is not an acting class! It's a class to help actors take quality headshots. If you have never taken acting class, this may not be a good fit!
