Focus Areas
As a result, The Light Committee focuses on one-on-one photo shoots, either in a studio setting or outdoors with natural light. The headshot photographer services covered are many:
Commercial actor looks: these are the smiley, highly approachable headshots. A good and common way to describe them is as if you are trying to look like the happy girl next door or boy next door.
Theatrical actor looks: also known as dramatic looks, and not necessarily that this is for the stage. In a dramatic look, it can be anything from good guy detective to bad girl villain, for example.
Cinematic actor looks: While the other shots use light to help create the look, this type is all about the lighting, to give it movie vibes. It’s usually best paired with a theatrical-type of look from the actor.
Comedic actor looks: bright, cheery, and probably colorful, this is all about the comedian in an actor and big smiles are usually required.
Professional corporate headshots: or a business portrait. Usually it is even lighting on the face which can be the most flattering. While it is common to make this a studio shot against a simple gray or blue background, it can also depend on the profession. For example, a psychiatrist might prefer the warmer vibes of outdoor natural light in a nature-like setting.
Multi-light studio lighting and modifiers: this is important for a studio to have because the more lights they have – assuming they know how to use them – the more capabilities they have, especially with looks like actor theatrical or cinematic.
Natural light outdoors: having a highly picturesque street in front of a photo studio can be very helpful for people that want to use natural light in their shot.
