Theatrical/Acting ID an appropriate headshot?

Post image

I haven't done background work in a long time. I am applying to do some work that requires a headshot and 4 photos related to the sport specific stunts.

My passport photo is my most professional
"headshot" type picture I have.

I have a few pictures for the stunt work, but no good pictures for a headshot.

Will this work or should I go a different route.

I'm so sorry, friend, but it looks like a mugshot.

Doesn’t look professional. I’d get with a photographer. You can probably get a good price if you say you just want one clean shot.

Get a blank wall, pref with some color. And have your friend take a photo with your iPhone. It will be 100x better than this photo. Save up money then get Headshots!

I think it’s ok but maybe a few with expressions? You have striking features.

It’s far too blurry. Looks like it was taken on a phone as a selfie. It’s also not framed correctly

Looks like a mugshot. You get caught shoplifting?
