WHERE TO GET HEADSHOTS in HOUSTON

Looking for the best headshots in Houston? A great headshot can mean the difference between success and failure. Don’t settle for just any photographer. You need someone who knows the entertainment industry.

I have been in the “biz” for over 20 years, both in front of, and behind the camera. I started modeling for Foley’s (now Macy’s), JC Penny, Palis Royal, modeling clothes by Nike, Calvin Klein, Ralph Lauren, and more and transitioned into acting starring on ABC, CBS, VH1, The WB, and in countless commercials.

My photography has been published in Vogue, Lucky, Allure, the NY Times, Vintage Guitar, Tone Quest, the Fretboard Journal… you name it.

All of this experience allows insight into what casting directors, producers, directors, and advertising executives want.

Take your career to the next level by getting a great headshot to market yourself with. My studio also provides audition taping and coaching, and my clients have booked roles on national TV and in Feature Film.

SCREAMWORLD: HAUNTED HOUSE HOUSTON

So, I have to admit, I was a little scared… yes, me, the horror film director. I really didn’t want to go through a haunted house. Even though I had been through it in the daytime, (it was creepy even with the lights on).

I was thinking; crowds of people, flashing lights, scary people lunging after me… sounded like a migraine waiting to happen.

BUT I LOVED IT!

The set design, props, actors… AMAZING. I’m not just blowing smoke. It’s really cool. Like walking into the Texas Chainsaw Massacre… but knowing you’ll walk out alive.

I wanna go back, plain and simple.

Many thanks to Robert Renfro for giving me the guided tour. ScreamWorld is an absolute, must see attraction this Halloween season. You won’t find anything else like it.

The folks at ScreamWorld love what they do, and it shows.

HOW TO GET PRESS and PROMOTE Yourself

Having trouble getting press? Tried getting magazines, newspapers and blogs to run your story without success? Here’s a little secret that will open the doors to more press exposure.
Create content that is unique, relevant, and of value to readers. That’s a given. But you need something to make you stand out from the crowd. And what is that, you ask?
A great image. Seriously. An eye catching image will grab attention, create more readers, more clicks, more share’s on facebook, more tweets, and ultimately more advertising revenue for the media outlet. 
Media outlets love advertising revenue. 
My fabulous client, Misha Penton, founder of Divergence Vocal Theater (DVT), is as much a PR maven as I am. DVT is an ensemble of performer/creators, consisting of singers, musicians, dancers, and more. If and opera company was a rock band, they’d be it. A truly innovative performance company. 
Misha has burst onto the art scene with phenomenal success in a very short period of time, garnering press from national media outlets for her events. How has she done it?
For each of her show’s, Misha has envisioned a theme of images that represents the overall feel of the performance piece. Then she calls me.
We talk about the concept, go over wardrobe, brainstorm background ideas, then shoot… on the green screen. Yes, green screen is not just for block buster Hollywood FX extravaganzas anymore. It’s quickly becoming one of my favorite ways to shoot… everything from bridal portraits to movie posters.
After the photoshoot, Misha makes her selections – then I go to work… dropping out the green, and compositing in the new background, color grading the image, and adding any special FX (like the ghost in image below).
Once the magic is done, Misha puts together a press release and sends the images out. “Your pics are my lynchpin, seriously. I would not get the press I do without them, and they are and have been instrumental in building my career,” says Misha.
Misha’s current project at DVT is the Autumn Soiree – an evening of haunting vocal & instrumental music, dance, puppetry and folktales. Just in time for Halloween. Performances October 14 & 15th in Houston at Divergence Vocal Theater. Tickets available here.
Here are a few links to the great press she has gotten:
