Specializing in actor headshots
NYC Harlem Headshot Photographer
Presence, Captured with Precision
I shoot portraits and headshots in New York City. I work with actors, performers, people building brands, and anyone who needs a photograph that actually looks like them. I take my time, I pay attention, and I make sure you feel settled before we even get started. The pictures tend to speak for themselves.
Acting Headshots
Packages
For Actors
No pressure, no rushing through looks. We take the time to find what feels natural and true to you — not a performance of yourself, just you on a good day. Bring plenty of options. We'll figure it out together. You'll leave with headshots that are honest, strong, and ready to go to work.
Your headshot is doing a lot before you walk in the room. I pay close attention to light, expression, and all the small things that read differently on screen or stage. Every session is about getting images that feel clear, real, and like you.

HEADSHOT SHARED SESSION RATE
Book with a friend and you both get a better rate. You'll still get the same focused attention throughout - just with someone familiar in the room, which tends to make everything a little easier. Good pictures come from people who feel comfortable.
Other Services
-
Corporate
A branding session is about building something you can use across the board - website, social, press. We put together a set of images that feel cohesive and true to what you do. The kind of thing that makes your whole presence feel more considered.
-
Portraits
Team pages, profiles, LinkedIn - whatever you need it for. I keep the process relaxed and efficient. You don't have to do much except show up. What you walk away with is something polished, approachable, and actually like you.
-
Kids Photography
Kids sessions are low-key by design. I work at their pace, keep things easy, and don't push. The best pictures happen when nobody's forcing it. You end up with portraits that are real, timeless, and full of who they actually are.

All the photos on my website were shot at my Harlem studio located in building 45 of Lenox Terrace. The studio is less than 3 blocks from the 135th stop off the 2/3 line. You must transfer at 96th Street if you are riding the local (1) train. To view a map and more see my CONTACT page.

I don’t use a makeup artist but highly recommend it if you are an actor/actress. I can refer one to you or you can book your own. I recommend booking a makeup artist that stays for your entire session. Make up can be done at the beginning of your session in the studio. It is included in the session time so ensure you book a professional who can keep it light, natural and under 15 minutes.
About Me
I’m a photographer working primarily with actors in NYC, capturing headshots that feel real, expressive, and true to who you are. My approach centers on the message you bring to the camera—less about stiff posing, more about presence and energy. My style ranges from dark, moody, and cinematic to bright, colorful, and full of life. Which direction we take is completely up to you—and if you’re torn, there’s no need to choose. We can do both.
