Do any of these pictures work as an actors headshot?

Question

If they are good enough...

which one is the best?

thanks :]

Answer 1

2 or 5 are OK as general photos (you're going to want to get some done professionally), but crop to remove the cleavage.

Answer 2

NONE...u look partly cross eyed n all of them in some way or another

Answer 3

I think that #2 would be a very good actor's headshot.  Your eyes really sparkle and that is the feature that conveys most of your personality.  It's almost as if that picture (more than the other ones) lets the viewer get to know YOU a little bit more, which (I think) is pretty important.  It also looks the most free.  However, if you really want a professional look - I would download a photo-editing software (I suggest the gimp - it's free) and play with the color balance and brightness/contrast of your photos.  Try putting some of them in black and white (traditional for headshots) - you might find a new favorite!  In the end, you know you the best - so pick the one that seems the most... you!

Answer 4

I can only see number 5, but it's fine. Only you look a little cross eyed. Not bad, but it was just something I noticed. You are a pretty girl so no worries.

Answer 5

2 and #4...i thought those were best yeah they did look a little cross eyed but i can tell that it was just they way you were looking. good luck!!!

Answer 6

the fifth one is definetly head shot worthy  

Answer 7

I'd go with #2

Answer 8

5 or 6.

Answer 9

yea the 5th one is the only good headshot...

Answer 10

I think pictures 2 5 & 6 work

Answer 11

fifth one

Answer 12

I'm not sure what the people will be looking for in the photos, but I think the most genuine is number 2.

And the white balance (color) is really off in numbers 1 and 3.  So I wouldn't use those unless they were fixed.  

I don't really like 4, 5, and 6 because the smile looks fake.  If I were looking to hire you for anything, acting or otherwise, based off of one of these photos, I would want to get a sense of who you are.  I would want someone friendly, fun, and approachable.  I feel this way the most when I look at number 2, though the smile does still look a teeny bit more forced.  It's also not a boring, regular pose, so I like it even more.

Like I said though, I'm not sure what they'll be looking for.  Just my own opinion of what I'm seeing for myself.  

Good luck!!  

Answer 13

I'd go with either the first or the third, they look more professional.
