HEADSHOTS
We believe every actor needs three beautiful headshots, that show the industry exactly who they are.
Casting directors decide in seconds whether you could be right for the part. With your headshot appearing as a tiny thumbnail in their casting breakdown, that first glance has to make an immediate impression. Akta Headshots make that first impression easier to get right.
Our Pay What You Can (PWYC) initiative offers accessibility without compromising on quality. Your session is the same, no matter what you pay; 1 hour shoot, 3 beautifully retouched headshots, delivered next day.
PAY WHAT YOU CAN HEADSHOTS
We believe there must be greater diversity in the creative industries. By inveting in authentic representation, we strive to create more inclusive and equitable industries where every talent is celebrated.
Akta's Pay What You Can (PWYC) initiative break down the financial barriers that hinder the career growth of talented individuals from marginalised communities. PWYC Headshots offer our Classic Headshot package at whatever price you can afford—no strings attached.
To make an application, simply complete the form below. If your application's successful, we’ll be in touch with all the details and next steps for booking your session.
** Please make sure to apply only once per month. Making multiple applications will not increase the chance of being accepted.
BOOKIING PROCESS
Our standard headshot session price is £299, but we offer PWYC rates from £75 to £250 to support you investing in your career without financial pressure.
Apply through the form above; once your application is accepted, you'll be invited to book your session via our online calendar. You'll receive a unique code to apply at checkout. You'll only have to pay the £75 deposit — if your PWYC price is higher than £75, we'll invoice the remaining balance later.
WE GUIDE YOU THROUGH THE NEXT STEPS
A Pay What You Can Headshot session is often just the starting point. From there, we offer ongoing support to help you put your headshots to use, further develop your acting skills through classes and consultations, as well as reach out to and connect with new agents and casting directors.
