How much should I pay for headshots in Los Angeles? That is the question, in today's competitive economy, and not to mention the difficult economic times we are living in. Price can become the key and most important part of how you will decide where to get your headshots. Which makes perfect sense right? Ok lets focus in on that idea. You want to change your life with an Acting, or Modeling career, and your trying to do it by find the most cost effective way. Let see its kinda like racing in the Indy 500 but your car is the cheapest most cost effective slow maybe won't make it to the finish line, heap of metal in the race, and your wondering why didn't I win. So does that mean pop the top off your budget and shoot for the stars. Not exactly, what I mean is its time to get to work and do as much research as possible, find out what are you getting in the headshot package, first and foremost can the photographer you choose actually light properly and is actually a real photographer. Your eighteen year old cousin Timmy who took a class in high school that one summer, probably shouldn't be your first choice, he just sounds good to you wallet. After you have figured out that the photographer is real, and has quality work, the next question is, what does that package include retouched images, how many looks, studio, prints, reshoots if needed, the list goes on and on. Now lets cut to the chase, how much should you pay for Actor headshots in Los Angeles? I think of it in three tiers, tier one your cousin Timmy $50-$100, poor work. Tier two which is the mid range $200-$500 good to excellent work. Tier three top range $600-$1000 these guys have developed name recognition that carry top end pricing good to excellent work. 

My conclusion to How much should I pay for headshots in Los Angeles? is if your starting out or if your a seasoned veteran, look to the mid range guys and find someone you can connect with, that have a package that fits your needs, and that will be your guy, he or she will help bring out the best in you, which will translate into work for you. Don't let price be the barrier between you and getting work. Remember like the Indy 500 use smarts and research to get to the top 3 and enter the winners circle. Use Timmy and you will be at the back of the pack forever.
