Much more critically to your headshots is to get that genuine look. When you pretend to smile for the camera, the camera isn’t fooled. The camera knows you are faking it.

You are going to make mistakes in your photo shoot. That’s OK. The important thing to remember is to stay excited about your headshots. Make sure that the real you comes out.

It’s so important that the casting director gets to see the real you in your photo.

When that happens, you get chosen for the acting jobs.

It isn’t magic, although it seems that way. It’s you being authentically you.

When you play characters in film and on TV, it’s important to make them lifelike. This is called verisimilitude.

Verisimilitude is one of those words you might hear around set. It literally means the appearance of being true or real.

And so begins your career as an actor.
