Hi all,

As with many of you, I had some headshots done recently and was hoping to get some feedback; age range and characters etc.

Any thoughts would be welcome!

Thank you all

Juliet

Age range I would say 30 - 35 characters would be quite edgey quirky characters

hi juliet

def 30-35 but would say you would also suit playing dark charactor roles

30-35 ish
I think your pics are very striking...but i think they are a bit specific towards scary, strong character roles.

To me the shots look as though you are trying very hard in the shots! Usually an agent would advise a simple natural looking shot as a main pic.

Good to have 1 or two like this as a contrast though.

They're certainly quite different from the usual neutral/smiley actor type headshot and for that vey specific role perhaps perfect, but for general use perhaps a bit too femme fatale.

I like your main image and headshots two and three.
The main photo may be more effective with a closer crop? It would further emphasise the strength of your look. I suspect you may be a little younger than your playing age and this could allow you great flexibility.

You might also consider a softer look in your next photo shoot to compliment your current images.

Good luck

Thanks for the tips!
I'm waiting for admin approval for a couple of othe pics that are perhaps more natural. I might keep one or two of the existing pics to show range.

I would say late twenties to early thirties...very artistic photos, but as the others have said before you still need something more nuetral, otherwise you'll just exclude yourself from more parts than necessary i think.
