Washington Square Park, Manhattan - Headshots of Derek

I met Derek because his fiance and he hired me as their wedding videographer and photographer for next June. I offered to do headshots for him for free as a thank you, and so we had a good time in Washington Square talking and catching up on things. Derek is a good actor, trying like the rest of us to work his way up, and these headshots are just another step towards the top!

Washington Square Park, Manhattan - Headshots of Maurice

A few days ago, I met up with Maurice Baskin, again in Washington Square Park to take some headshots. He was looking for some good smiling pics to replace his older headshots, so we spent an hour or so shooting some great pictures. He has a great natural smile, so it's very easy to work with him. He actually had auditioned with me to play the Tyrone character in Mozart of Rap! Let me know what you think of his pics!

Maurice Baskin, 25, was born and raised in Brooklyn New York and is an actor and songwriter. He has been singing since he can remember, and during his formal training years as a vocalist he picked up the art of songwriting and happens to be pretty good at it. He started acting in small commercials as a child; and then went on to a Performing arts High school where he was exposed to many different types of creative expression. As he graduated and went off to college, he started taking private voice lessons, as well as some scene study work. He than began student projects such as silent black and white films and even student commercials. After that he started doing extra work on indie projects where he gained experience behind the scenes. He truly enjoys his experiences in the entertainment field and has so much more to offer the industry. Maurice is currently working on an Indie R&B artist debut project, and is also auditioning everyday looking for that next big role. He plans to move to Calinfornia in 2011.

Washington Square Park, Manhattan - Headshots of Susie

I had a great time meeting again with my friend Susie Duecker, who starred in Ben's music video Lullaby. She modeled for me and we took a bunch of awesome pictures and had a fun time. She is going to be moving to California soon, but hopefully we will still stay in touch.

Washington Square Park, Manhattan - Headshots of Lidia

Today I went into Washington Square park and did headshots for Lidia. Lidia hasn't acted in a few years but is now starting to get back into it and needed some updated headshots. We had a great time and got many great pictures. She is a natural smiler and so it was very easy to take great shots. Let me know what you think!

Washington Square Park, Manhattan - Headshots of Rae

About a month ago, I was in Washington Square Park taking photos for one of my professors, Rae Wright. She has been helping me out on the film Mozart of Rap, and I figured it would be fun for both of us to do a headshot session. Normally she has to pay a lot for headshots, but I did it for her for free. She told me she was going for a certain type of look, the "white trailer trash mom look." So, take a peek and let me know what you think!

Washington Square Park, Manhattan - Headshots of Kaitlyn

About a week ago, I shot headshots for Kaitlyn, a great actress and someone who should be a model because she has the look. She is in musical theatre and is friends with Shannon, hence how she found out about me. We took a bunch of shots in an hour and she found so many that she liked that I couldn't edit all of them for her. But she was able to narrow it down to five and then I got them to her the next day.

Crown Heights - Woody Fenelon Headshots

I went into Brooklyn to take headshots for Woody a fourth time, and we also shot some footage of him refereeing a high school football game. But this post is just about the headshot session. Literally, we only shot for about twenty minutes and then I had to go because we cut the timing so close. But we did get a number of good shots out of the twenty minute long session.
