Take 2 - Headshots!

Hooray! The time has finally come where I can announce to everyone that I am super organised actress/presenter, whom is well prepared and most importantly - ready to roll!

The headshot situation ended up being some-what of a dilemma for the mere fact that I am both an actress and presenter and feel that I require different headshots for each. Problem is, having different headshots can be very confusing not only to yourself but everyone else working in your industry.
I ended up doing three headshot photo shoots in order to try and achieve the perfect shot that balanced between acting and presenting whilst at the same time capturing some sort of truth about me and my personality. That's how I ended up with this..It's happy, bright and enthusastic..like me! I think this image also shows me as a type of  blank canvas and demonstrates that my look is easily versatile and dynamic. While this photograph would not be the most suitable in my normal non-acting day-to-day life, I think it's very suitable for it's purpose, sends a nice message and most importantly is easily marketable.

For the first time ever I have also chosen to use a secondary headshot. Here it is..

 I think this photograph is great for film and theatre and again showcases me differently but still truthfully. I can be a very serious and dramatic actress at the best of times and this photograph captures that well. I think this photograph also captures my honestly and maturity.
People often comment on how there is something 'unknowingly different' about my look and I think this headshot captures that well too. There aren't many people who look like me.
Both headshots I have chosen are different to one another and portray a totally different look, but strangely enough both headshots are what I look like on any given day so when I turn up to an audition it's safe to say that I will look like the person in my picture!

I hope that you like my headshot selection and let's hope these new images drum up some attention..even a little attention will do...
