When I tell people I shoot actors for a living, they always want to know “Who have you shot?!!”\u00a0 Not sure why…but, there’s obviously something titillating about knowing someone who’s taken headshots of a favorite actor or celeb crush.\u00a0 I honestly don’t know why – but, that seems to be the case…\u00a0 Darin Brooks definitely qualifies as an actor who LOTS of people have a crush on.\u00a0 He’s probably always going to be known as Max Brady on Days of Our Lives – a part that he won a couple of Daytime Emmy’s for…nice job….\u00a0 My mom and grandmother absolutely LOVE him, so I felt a tiny bit of nervousness knowing I’d been shooting his headshots.\u00a0 Not nervous to meet him or shoot him – – – nervous my Mom would show up at the shoot and scare the poor kid with all of her millions of questions!<\/p>\n
One thing I always tell friends who are getting into photography is that:\u00a0 when you have an absolutely amazing subject (like Darin) you don’t need much else.\u00a0 All the bells & whistles of extravagant sets & lighting can very often take away from the innate beauty of your subject.\u00a0 Darin was one of those subjects.\u00a0 Easy to take pictures of, because he was so open & PRESENT.\u00a0 These shots were taken for LA Health Magazine<\/a>, so I wanted to keep the image clean & fresh anyway – so I used mostly natural light & only accented with strobes.\u00a0 That’s something I like to do with all of my actor h<\/strong>eadshots <\/strong>in general ….pure natural light is great for some things, but I find that a little accent light here & there can really make an image POP.<\/p>\n If you’re as big a fan of Darin as my Mom & Grandmother, you can check out what he’s been doing lately on his imdb page<\/a>, or check out a site dedicated to all things Darin \ud83d\ude42\u00a0 http:\/\/darinbrooksonline.com\/<\/a><\/p>\n For more examples of ACTING HEADSHOTS<\/a> visit my portfolio and FACEBOOK<\/a> page \ud83d\ude42 \u00a0And if you have any questions, please feel free to CONTACT<\/a> me – I\u2019m happy to help with all things headshots los angeles.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Headshots for Actors When I tell people I shoot actors for a living, they always want to know “Who have you shot?!!”\u00a0 Not sure why…but, there’s obviously something titillating about knowing someone who’s taken headshots of a favorite actor or celeb crush.\u00a0 I honestly don’t know why – but, that seems to be the case…\u00a0 […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[3],"tags":[54,55,5,13,37,12,49,56,10,57,14,25,35,48,39,53,68,67,38,36,58],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/brandinphotography.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/217"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/brandinphotography.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/brandinphotography.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/brandinphotography.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/brandinphotography.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=217"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/brandinphotography.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/217\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":220,"href":"https:\/\/brandinphotography.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/217\/revisions\/220"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/brandinphotography.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=217"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/brandinphotography.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=217"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/brandinphotography.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=217"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
