Workshop Series - Studio Headshot Day
Event description
We’re thrilled to announce that will be working with Weronika Mamot for our popular Studio Headshot Day.
It’s essential to have current, high-quality headshots for all artists, especially when you’re starting out. It is a vital part of establishing your arts practice, but when you’re focused on creating, it can be overlooked.
Our Studio Headshot Day will provide you with a selection of professional headshots which are yours to use on your website, resume, biography, auditions, programs, social media and more.
About Weronika Mamot
Weronika’s unique photographic voice is articulated in each project and across her editorial and commercial portfolio. She has been praised for bringing intimacy and honesty to her work. Weronika is equally at home with classical photographic techniques in her acute studies of her subjects as she is with creating highly cinematic editorial stories. Born and raised in Poland, she is currently based in Adelaide.
Recent clients include Marie Clare, David Jones, Paolo Sebastian, Jurlique, Myer, Channel 7, SA LIFE, South Australian Style Magazine, Advertiser / Sunday Mail and Norwood Parade.
Preparing for the session
To get the most out of your session, there are a few things you can do ahead of time.
• Consider the look and feel of your headshots you would like, and what you need them for e.g. comp cards, website etc
• Do your research and bring a couple of reference shots with you on your phone
• Plan your outfit – avoid stripes, polka dots, strong patterns, logos etc – but most of all, make sure you feel great in it
• Arrive with your hair, makeup etc ‘camera ready’
The day will be divided into 30-minute sessions, with artists booking their preferred time via Humanitix. Please arrive ten-minutes prior to your scheduled session. If you arrive late, unfortunately your shoot time will be reduced, to ensure the next appointment is able to start on time.
Please note places are limited, so it’s first in best dressed.
Supplying your portraits
You will be provided with three to four high-res files to download. Preferred images will be selected on the day in consultation with the photographer and provided with basic touching up. Additional images are available, at your own cost, which can be negotiated with Weronika directly.
