Long Island Bridal Boudoir Photography/Birthday Gift

Wedding season is officially here and that means brides are looking to get wedding gifts for their grooms.  You are feeling the happiest, excited and the most beautiful you ever have.  This is the perfect time to document all these feelings.  Give him and/or yourself something that you both can cherish for many years.  Bridal boudoir  photos or just beautiful portraits of you!  Or even a combination of both.   Boudoir need not just be about wearing lingerie.  This beautiful client came in recently so she could gift these photos as both a wedding gift and a birthday gift to her groom to be.  Here are some highlights from her session.  I can’t wait to hear how much her hubby loves his gift.  :o)

Long Island Headshots/New York Actor Headshots

As you may already know by now, I love taking headshots for actors, dancers and musicians.  There is so much incredible talent out there and it is always great to be able to meet such talented people and to work with them on their headshots.  Some of the actors that I meet are fairly new to the business while others are veterans that are simply looking to update their headshots.  If you are an actor, it is always a good idea to get updated headshots every two years, especially if your appearance has changed, i.e., you have a new hairstyle, changed the color of your hair, you got braces, you grew a beard, or any other change in facial appearance.  Your headshot should look like you normally look like every day of the  year.  When  you are called in to an audition, casting directors would like you to look like the headshot  you submitted.  Hence it is important that you do not appear over glammed up for your headshot photo session.  Although hair and make-up is important for your photo shoot, and you may decide to get  your hair and/or make-up done by a professional, you will still want to be able to easily replicate the look of  your headshot on the day of your audition.  So if you normally wear straight hair for your auditions, you will want to keep your hair straight for your headshot session.   So, do you need to hire a hair and/or make-up artist?   I think it is always a good idea especially for women, especially when it comes to make-up.  I know that I myself,  always find that when somebody else does my hair and make-up it always comes out a bit more “polished”.    I normally wear my hair straight and I love to treat myself to a professional blowing out my hair or flattening it out.  And even though i know how to put make-up on, I always prefer a professional to do it especially for pictures.     Here are some photos from a recent actor’s headshot session.  This young lady contacted me a couple of weeks ago for a headshot session.  She is an aspiring young actress who is really excited about pursuing her dream of being an actress.  Since she told me that she normally does not wear any make-up, we kept her make-up looking fairly natural so that she still looks like herself when she goes for auditions.
