Sunday I had the pleasure of shooting headshots for Valeria, a Bel Air teenager who will be attending acting camp this summer. She needed to have some 8×10 headshot prints so she gave me a call to set up an appointment.

The headshots were all taken at her home (where her mother makes some delicious lemonade) in the family room / living room area. The home had a beautiful wood floor, and it made a great background as I shot from high above.

I think Valeria had a great time — once she got over a bit of nervousness in the beginning — and I hope I was able to help her land a great role in the future.
