Here’s What NYC Actors Are Saying

Jonathan Vane

I’m a NYC headshot photographer specializing in capturing clean, confident images that feel true to you. I shoot out of my home studio in Long Island City and work with actors at every stage of their careers—whether you’re building your first portfolio or refreshing shots for your agent.

As both an actor and a photographer, I understand what casting directors are really looking for. Every session is designed to feel calm, focused, and collaborative—so you’re never stuck overthinking or forcing a look that doesn’t fit. The goal is simple: to create headshots that open doors, spark interest in the room, and give you the confidence to walk into auditions knowing your photos are working for you.
