HEADSHOTS

Remember when “You on your best day” was all your headshot needed to portray? That little phrase is no longer relevant. It’s no longer enough. That shit doesn't work anymore. A lovely shot of your face just isn't powerful enough. We need your shot to capture your energy, your presence, your intensity, and your vibe. A shot that looks compelling in thumbnail size, and is a representation of the YOU that walks in the room. 

 
 

How can Dianna Bush Photography help?

Not getting seen for what you want? Maybe your headshot doesn't FEEL like the characters you want to play.
Don’t look like your headshot? Easy fix.
Headshot is old? Easy fix.
Called in for the wrong types? Your headshot must look like you.
Want to be a Broadway star? Your headshot needs gravitas.
Wanna be a tough guy in a Martin Scorsese or Guy Richie film? You need your image to represent that side of you.
Want to sell tickets to your cabaret? You need a shot that makes it happen.

Look, anyone can meet you anywhere for any price and snap a few pictures. But that’s not what I do. I plan your shoot to suit what you need to move your career forward. What do you need to take that next step?

What do you need to take that next step?

Your headshot image isn’t a pose, it’s a moment. Are you actively listening in your image? Are you using the same kind of action that you use when you're winning a scene?  Are you winning in this image? Are you sitting back being cool? Sure. Are you leaning in hanging on every word? Sure. Is something about to happen? Sure!

 

***** My goal isn't to take a good headshot or even to take technically perfect image, it's to take a picture of you, capturing you in a way that lends it's self to the character, energy, type, strengths of who you could be on screen or on stage.

 

 

 

 

 

A note about pricing - I price in solidarity. I believe that a good headshot shouldn’t cost more than your rent. When it does, people are nervous, uncomfortable, and scared. You shouldn’t suffer because you want a high-end professional shot to represent your career goals. I want you to look comfortable and feel comfortable in front of my lens. No matter the price, you need to feel comfortable. You shouldn’t have to strain because you want quality.

 

Conversely, Yes, You can find a headshot session costing less than what a session at Dianna Bush Photography costs. But … enter at own risk.

 

I want you to be able to get a fresh image often without feeling strain from the price.

 

We shoot what you need to propel your career forward. All choices represent “character” and the character is you.

 

I’m here to support you. Yep, I know A LOT about photography, but this photo isn’t about me. It’s about you. My style, my signature, my technique isn’t the focal point. You are.

 

Need something different or more than what is mentioned here? Just ask! I’m here to help you realize your dreams and reach your goals though great pictures!

 

I love actors! I really do. I speak your language. I understand your dreams! I want to help you create marketing images that will propel you into the direction of your goals (a.k.a. dreams).

 

I've got skin in the game. This is important to me. My dream is that our images propel you to the next stage of your career.

 

I want my friends and new friends to have beautiful images with which to market their shows, their careers, their talents, so I created an inexpensive professional option – One & Done  = One hour or one “look” and one finished image.

 

If a picture is worth 1000 words, then I need all the words to be about you. When someone looks at the picture, they see 1000 words about you and not my style.

 

Large variety of images …

 

You need to look like a pro. You want people to buy tickets to your show, yet you aren’t using a professional looking image in your marketing. Your headshot-out-take or the snapshot your friend took, is not representing you well. You want people to spend money on your show, yet you aren't presenting a professional image.

 

My goal is to take the absolute very best photo of you I can.
