Photographers/Videographers/MUAs/Set Designers
Warning: There is a company out there that uses booths at malls and makes money by charging $500-1400 in photographs and they promise to get you jobs. This is a complete ripoff. If you know any other scams or photographers that rip people off, please let us know so we can warn people.
You can get great headshots for under $200 depending on the photographer but normally it does not include a make-up artist. If it includes a makeup artist and stylist, it could run you up to $500+. However, do not sacrifice quality for price. You do need to shop around and see who you like. The best way to find out who is good is to ask other actors/models. Below we listed sites that we feel will help you find a good photographer. In addition, we included our own recommendations.
