HEADSHOT PREP MASTERY !

How to Take Control of your Next Headshot Shoot through Visual Storytelling!

Oscar Wilde said: "Experience is simply the name we give our mistakes."

The best thing about mistakes is that they allow us to learn! They are, perhaps, our best tool as we seek to becomes experts in our craft.

We will dissect common mistakes we as artists tend to make in headshot sittings. We will cover things like passive participation, incongruous stories and how to create strong ones, how vanity manifests in our choices and what we can do to truly embrace our imperfections and see them as positive attributes!

We will look at the differences between the headshot and the print shot or portrait. We will fully excavate ourselves as types in an industry that embraces them, while still leaving space for our personal essence; our unique and wonderful personalities.

At the end of the day, you will have the tools you need to realize your best shoot to date, sharing your most marketable and authentic self.

TESTIMONIALS

I HIGHLY recommend the Headshot class with Amanda Brooke Lerner.

After taking this I realized all the mistakes I was making and why none of my headshots were having me fly off the shelves even though all of my headshots were done by reputable headshot photographers.

Jen Rudolph and Amanda Brooke Lerner helped me dial into my entry point. Amanda Brooke Lerner helped me find the right photographer for my type as well as helping with wardrobe and visual storytelling to help convey that.

I know in the end this is an investment in my career. I can't wait to have my headshots redone and dial into my 2%.

What a wonderful evening yesterday with Jen Rudolph and Amanda Brooke Lerner as we went over THE ART OF THE HEADSHOT PREP!

It opened a new way to look at the head shots we ultimately choose to represent us...the first impression the industry has us..how we sell to our buyers... Whether you are a beginner or have been doing this for years like moi, we are always evolving, growing and developing. I love that Amanda expressed that even as an expert, she is, as well.  

We had so much fun, lots of laughs as we all recognized ourselves in others!! Everyone left the class enlightened and empowered!!! And we all now have a very thorough and specific handout to prepare for that next headshot session! HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS CLASS!

Anybody else wake up to start this new week dreaming about Amanda Brooke Lerner 's incredible headshot class this past Saturday night?? Thank you to Amanda and Jen Rudolph for all of your insights. And for the pamphlet of info for me to pour over again and again. 

I would HIGHLY recommend this class/workshop to anyone who doesn't feel super confident getting your headshot taken. Biggest takeaway from Amanda: we are not models, we are actors, so why not create characters and use a headshot session as an opportunity to tell stories vs. focusing on looking pretty/good/glam/whatever else society tells us.

Spend the money. Nothing insane but these shots are an investment in you, your marketing, your future, your passion.
