Actor Headshots in Vancouver Island – Professional Film & TV Photography
Film & TV Headshots for Casting Directors
What Casting Directors Look for in a Headshot
Actors on Vancouver Island can now get professional actor headshots that meet the high standards of Vancouver casting directors, right here in the Comox Valley. I’ve spent years developing the “Vancouver look” for film and TV headshots, making it accessible to local actors in our community. My sessions are designed to be professional, comfortable, and tailored to help you stand out whether you’re auditioning for film, television, or theatre.
Hi, I’m Katie Clarkson! Storytelling has been part of my life since I first stepped on stage at six years old. By my teens, I was mentoring young actors and directing small productions, which sparked a lifelong passion for helping performers grow in their craft. My work has taken me from Vancouver Island to Abu Dhabi, guiding actors to build confidence and refine their skills in both performance and filmmaking.
In 2018, I co-founded an acting studio, creating a space where actors could train for theatre and film. Over the years, I’ve taught everything from acting techniques to behind-the-scenes production, helping performers develop the tools they need to book roles and succeed in the industry.
As a director and cinematographer, I’ve led numerous short films and worked on a variety of film and theatre productions. Whether I’m behind the camera or in the director’s chair, I know what makes a performance stand out on screen, on stage, and in a headshot.
Your actor headshot is your first impression. Whether you're stepping onto the stage or in front of the camera, it should showcase your personality, versatility, and the energy you bring to every role. A great actor headshot is more than just a photo. It’s the first step toward landing your next film, TV, or theatre role.
Every performance starts with a strong headshot that captures your energy, personality, and presence. Let’s create something that helps you stand out to casting directors and makes a lasting impression.
Getting a great actor headshot doesn’t have to feel overwhelming. My goal is to make the process easy and enjoyableso you feel confident and comfortable in front of the camera. From the moment we start, it’s a collaborative experience. I’ll guide you through poses, angles, and expressions that bring out your best look while keeping the session relaxed and fun.
It’s not just about what you look like. It’s about who you are as an actor and what makes you unique. Whether you’re getting your first professional headshots or updating for your next big audition, we’ll create headshots that feel like you and help you stand out to casting directors.
