What casting and agencies want
An actor or model headshot is not a corporate portrait. It must look exactly like you on your best ordinary day: minimal retouching, true-to-life skin, and framing that meets current casting and agency standards for Vancouver's film, TV, and fashion market.
Range, not just one look
We shoot multiple looks in one session, theatrical (dramatic, grounded) and commercial (warm, open), with wardrobe changes, so your agent has options for different submissions.
Digitals, comp cards & portfolio
For models: clean digitals (polaroids) front, profile, and full length, plus comp card and portfolio frames. Shot unretouched where agencies ask for it, and delivered in the sizes and crops your agency specifies. And nothing is stiffly posed: sessions run on prompts and conversation, not held smiles.
Actor & model headshots
Agency-ready frames for adults and kids: theatrical, commercial, and clean white-background submissions. Click any photo to see it full size.
One session, the background your agent asks for
Your selected images come back on the backdrop each submission calls for: white for digitals, grey or warm neutral for theatrical, colour when a casting brief asks for it.

Most working actors keep both. We can cover the two looks in a single session with a wardrobe change and different direction.

Yes. Digitals are shot clean and unretouched: front, profile, and full length, natural hair and minimal makeup, plain background. Comp card and portfolio frames can be added in the same session.

I’m not usually comfortable in front of a camera, but Volkan made the whole experience relaxed, fun, and professional. Even if you're camera-shy, he'll make it a great experience.

From the moment I arrived, he made me feel completely at ease. His attention to detail, lighting expertise, and ability to capture the perfect expression are truly remarkable. The final images exceeded my expectations: polished, professional, and full of personality.
