Actor Headshots Berlin / London: Get the Audition. Book the Role.
In Berlin’s competitive acting scene, your headshot is your single most important marketing tool. It’s the first thing a casting director sees and your one chance to make an impression that gets you in the room. A generic, flat, or outdated photo doesn’t just fail to represent you—it actively works against you. Your headshot isn’t merely a picture; it’s a strategic career investment designed to open doors and secure auditions. We create compelling, cinematic, and authentic actor headshots that capture your unique essence, showcase your range, and give you the professional edge you need to succeed.
Over the past 19 years, I have photographed hundreds of actors for TV and film industry headshots. I have been providing master classes in portrait photography to photographers for years, and since 2018, I have been selected as the Sony Alpha Euro Imaging Ambassador every year. Member of the Federation of Professional Portrait Photographers—BPP. I also have an International Artist card issued by the German International Fine Arts Society (IGBK)

Frequently Asked Questions
What is “Magazine Quality Editing”?
This is our signature retouching process. It goes far beyond basic adjustments. We perform meticulous, non-destructive editing that includes professional skin smoothing (while retaining natural texture), color grading, sharpening, removal of blemishes and flyaway hairs, and enhancement of the eyes to make them pop. The result is a polished, high-end image worthy of a magazine cover, yet completely authentic to you.What should I wear for my session?
Bring a variety of options. Focus on solid colors and avoid busy patterns, large logos, or distracting textures. Jewel tones often work well, but bring a mix of light and dark tops. Most importantly, bring clothes that you feel comfortable and confident in. We will consult with you at the beginning of your session to select the best looks.Do you shoot both UK and US-style headshots?
Absolutely. We are experienced in the specific requirements for different markets. US headshots are typically more vibrant and often have a commercial feel, while UK headshots (like for Spotlight) can be more neutral and character-focused. We will tailor the lighting, cropping, and direction to deliver exactly what you need for your target market.How should I prepare for my headshot session?
Get a good night’s sleep and arrive well-hydrated. Avoid heavy makeup; it’s always better to start with a natural look that can be built upon if needed. Practice connecting with the camera in a mirror, thinking about the types of roles you want to be cast for. Most importantly, come with an open mind, ready to collaborate and have fun.Q: Can I have the RAW photo files?
A: We do not provide RAW files. A RAW file is like an unmastered track—it’s an unfinished product. Our professional service includes the final, masterfully edited images that represent the pinnacle of our collaborative work. This ensures that every image representing your brand and our studio meets the highest quality standards.
