Michael Praed out of the blue!

Great surprise when a friend contacts you who you worked with 38 years ago on Pirates of Penzance in the West End, tells you he needs to update his headshot and says, "I haven't done this for 20 years!" Even so, Michael Praed has a CV full of credits as long as your arm and has worked with everyone! What a talent! It was a pleasure to help create his new look for 2020.

Natural light student head shots – Jessica Bennett

Last few months have been busy. Its that time of the year again when 3rd year drama and musical theatre students need to get their head shots done. For many of them it's the first time they have ever sat in front of a camera! So many things for them to think about, hair, make up, expression, do I smile do I look moody....

For me, there's only one important thing. The eyes! Get them to say everything! It's not easy to do but it makes the portrait work. If the eyes are dead, all the hard work with make up and hair will be wasted.

I shot student actress Jessica Bennett in natural light with just a reflector to accentuate her eyes, no need for anything else.

 

Young actor Matthew Stagg

Really enjoyed working with up and coming young actor Matthew Stagg, we got some fantastic natural light studio shots. Most recently Matthew can be seen in the feature film, Mum’s List starring alongside Emilia Fox and Rafe Spall. He will also play the lead role of Sam in upcoming Lionsgate feature ‘Marrowbone’.

Tale as Old as Time

Disney’s live action remake of Beauty and the Beast has been one of the most anticipated movies of the year. Young talent Nathan Mack was selected by Lucy Bevan casting to play the supporting lead role of Chip, the enchanted teacup, opposite Emma Thompson who plays Mrs Potts. The film has already broken five box office records in its first week and is the seventh biggest opening of all time!
