Retouching
- All headshots require at least minimal retouching before printing
- Exposure correction and color balancing are provided free of charge on all final images included with a session
- Minor retouching is included with all final images (blemish removal, dark circles, etc)
- Moderate retouching would be removing something like beard shadow, thinning arms, etc. (extra charge)
- Major retouching would be changing something like hair or shirt color, removing buttons and other distractions, etc. (extra charge)
Retouching, color balancing, and exposure compensation is available at $25 per image.
For more challenging retouching and photo fixes, an estimate can be provided in advance.
Hair & Make-Up – $160-$175
If you are a woman, and you have hair, you need someone to assist you with hair and makeup on your shoot. I can provide a qualified hair and makeup artist, or you may provide your own.
The hair and makeup artist will work with you to adjust your normal routine for a camera friendly look, and stays throughout the shoot to maintain, adjust, and enhance.
Men generally do not need this service, unless they have long hair or special circumstances.
The makeup artists I work with are highly qualified, professional makeup artists. Their rates vary depending upon the makeup artists we choose.
If you would like to shoot headshots with both straight and curly hair, the hair and makeup artist charges an additional $25 for the second hairstyle.

What You Go Home With!
At the end of your session, you will receive three session proofing tools for helping you pick your shots:
- Proof CD Contains low-resolution versions of every image you choose to keep. Coleman PhotoGraphix keeps an archive of your shoot for four years–during that time, you may order any image in a Retouched, Hi-Resolution version.
- Online Proof Site Online, sharable Proof Website. This site will help you share your session with friends, family, teachers and instructors, agents, and anyone else whose feedback can help in picking your final shots.
- Session Booklet Printed Session Booklet containing thumbnail images of your entire shoot. Plastic covered, spiral bound, and soft enough to carry in your backpack or purse, the Session Booklet is a great tool for impromptu sharing of images with agents, teachers, fellow actors, and anyone else who asks “What other shots do you have?”
Makeup area and viewing station used during actor's headshot session.

Actor’s Jumpstart – $350
The Actor’s Jumpstart is a 1 on 1 meeting with the photographer, a makeup artist (for women), an actor’s career coach, and a working casting director in advance of the shoot.
During this 45 minute session, you will discuss:
- Your “type”, and appropriate roles
- Clothing choices accentuating your type (bring clothing you intend to wear for the shoot)
- Makeup decisions
- Hair-cut/styling decisions
- Shots you need to have in your portfolio of images
This is your opportunity to truly prepare for your headshot session (and the next two years of casting submissions) with the help and support of industry pros–they will remove the guesswork and get your career on track.
Any session can include the Actor’s Jumpstart as an add-on to the session package.
