Casting directors are swamped with hundreds of submissions. No resume credit will open the door to an audition better than a fresh new headshot that shows a different dimension of your type. If your current headshots have been submitted over and over again, they are getting stale. A casting director will often overlook a headshot they have seen too many times, even if you auditioned for them in the past and even if they liked your work. The more you update your headshots, the more positive attention you will garner from casting directors and industry decision makers.

GORNPHOTO is a great company when you need Photos for headshots and acting and just a very professional company all around. I was looking for a photographer for my son’s headshots since he’s interested in commercials and acting and I searched around and nobody except for Mr. Gorn responded to me. He called me and I mentioned what we were looking for and he sent me his website link again and his accomplishments and I went over this with my son and his mom and we decided to use Mr. Gorn. It was a great experience and my son rarely smiles and Lev and Julianna brought out the best in him. They Made him feel at ease and comfortable and just a fun experience and my son had a lot of fun and he still tells me today, he enjoyed the whole experience. I can tell Mr. Gorn is a dedicated and diligent and hard working actor and photographer and his experience shows though his work. To give an example Lev and Julianna travelled to our community and did the photo shot for my son and again they brought out the best in him and made him feel at ease. I always say, you pay for what you get and I have no complaints but praise and thanks. The final photos have clarity and the amount of light shines through them and they show a great side of my son for the upcoming casting events. You definitely inspired my son from your advice. Again I will alwaysrecommend your photography company to everyone and you can add one of his photos to your website which that is fine with us. Again from me and Carol and William, we all had fun and thanks to Julianna and you Lev.

Lev made me feel comfortable from our first conversation. He came highly recommended by someone I respect greatly. Lev was easy going, professional and kind. Also of course a wonderful artist that worked with me to try to get the most ideal shots. He understands not only from a photographer viewpoint, but also from an actors perspective. He was generous with advice too which was appreciated! His makeup artist was also very good and professional.

I had a brand photo shoot with Lev for my new company and I can't even describe to you what an amazing experience it was!! I felt like a movie star, and with the photos he created, I look like one too! He took time to understand my brand identity and chose location, wardrobe and lighting that would truly represent me my company. I HIGHLY recommend GORNPHOTO to anyone who is looking to up their game and standout amongst all the people in their industries and fields. I used the photos on my website, for marketing material, social media platforms, email signature- pretty much every platform and document that requires a photo. The pics came out so good that I've had website inquiries (on my company website) about where I got my photos done and if I don't mind sharing the info.

Lev is absolutely fantastic! I’m a professor that needed professional headshots to use online. So I searched the internet for photographers and found so many in midtown it was overwhelming. When I saw Lev’s samples online, his talent was immediately clear. You could just see there was a natural inviting nature to the photos he took. Perfect for a website or online profile where a professional headshot is needed to draw people in. After having gotten my headshots, I was blown away. The shots he got are more than I ever could have imagined. Truly an artist. He just knows how to capture your personality and can achieve a variety of different looks depending on the context of what you’re going for. I would absolutely without a doubt go back again and recommend to anyone looking for professional headshots. You simply can’t go wrong. Lev is the best!

I was very pleased with my professional headshots from GornPhoto. I don’t love the process of getting my photo taken because I blink a lot, but I told Lev this at the start and he made sure to put me at ease, make me laugh, and actually produced some great photos with my eyes open! I also had some scheduling difficulties and Lev was very patient and made sure to stick with me so we could get the photos done. I appreciated his professionalism and ease of communication throughout.

My law firm hired Lev to take our headshots. I was told ahead of time by a coworker that Lev is great and it is true! He made the process easy and comfortable and I was happy with the pictures. Lev is very professional and clearly knows what he is doing. He gave me clear instructions on making small adjustments, and I ended up with a lot of good options. It was hard to choose a favorite! Given the few times I’ve had to get headshots taken, this has definitely been the best experience I have had.

I found Lev through a post on LinkedIn by a former colleague, and I loved the quality I saw. However, since my colleague is in Atlanta, I did not realize he was working out of NYC. So... even though his home base is NYC and I am based in Atlanta, I concluded that I liked his work more than others I had seen locally... I decided I would go to NYC to get my professional photos. I'm pleased with the results and recommend to anyone looking for quality photography with a great photographer that is easy to work with to contact Lev.

Simply put, Lev Gorn is a rockstar. Having been an actor for years, these are the best headshots I’ve ever gotten. Himself a working actor, Lev has a unique eye when it comes to what Casting & producers need. Kind, instinctive, with a detailed “prep”… our session went smoothly. Honestly, I went into this photo shoot with a “pandemic brain”, and left excited for what the future holds. I study my craft & network with CDs, but Lev Gorn‘s photos will open many more doors. It’s very exciting! Run to him people. Lev is the BEST headshot photographer in New York City!

Lev was extremely professional from planning the shoot all the way through to the end. We were required to have our shots taken outside and Lev was extremely accommodating in rescheduling due to weather and schedule challenges. During the shoot he was super engaging and made sure my awkwardness in front of the camera didn’t come through at all. Schedule your shoot with him ASAP!

Headshots NYC Frequently Asked Questions

If you’re looking to get professional headshots, your best bet is to go to a professional photographer. Look for someone who specializes in portrait and studio photography, as they will be able to help you find the perfect shot. You can also look online for photographers in your area who offer headshot packages. Make sure that you do some research to find the right photographer for you. Be sure to read reviews, look at their portfolio and inquire about any questions or concerns you have before booking an appointment.

Taking time to choose the perfect headshot photographer will ensure you get the quality corporate or actor headshots you’re looking for. Additionally, some photographers are able to do shoots on location, which can be a great option if you’re looking for a truly unique photo. Lastly, you may also consider attending a professional headshot event. These events are becoming increasingly popular, and offer a great way for professionals to get quality headshots in an efficient manner. Be sure to take all these options into consideration when deciding where to get your headshots taken!

The cost of professional headshots can vary greatly depending on the photographer and other factors such as location, number of images or shots, usage rights and more. In general, expect to pay anywhere from $495 to $3,495 for a single session. The average cost for a basic package is around $600-$1,200. When budgeting for your professional headshots, it is important to consider the quality of photography, the number of images you need and any other additional services such as retouching or design work.

The most important thing to remember when considering professional headshots is that you get what you pay for. Investing in a high quality photographer will ensure that your headshots will have professional quality and look polished. Ultimately, this investment can pay off in the long run by helping you to stand out from other professionals and potentially helping you land the job of your dreams. Ultimately, it is important to remember that headshots should be seen as an investment in your professional career and not just a cost. By investing in a high-quality photographer, you are investing in your future and ensuring that you have the best possible chance of success.

When it comes to taking headshots, the best way to capture natural looking photos is by NOT posing. Natural headshots are much more appealing than posed ones as they create a sense of connection with the viewer. To get that natural look, try to think of the photographer as your friend. Try having a conversation with him, instead of constantly glancing at the lens. Eye contact is still important but make sure you’re relaxed when doing so. Also, don’t be afraid to move around during your shoot – just remember to keep your eyes looking through the lens into the photographer’s eyes! 

If you’re feeling stiff or uncomfortable, try changing positions every few seconds or verbally expressing what you are thinking or feeling as if you were talking with a friend. Tell a joke. Share something personal with the photographer. Keep the conversation going and let your personality shine through. When you are relaxed, natural expressions will start to emerge that can be captured in a beautiful headshot. Don’t think og looking good. Think of how best to connect with your photographer and be yourself! That is what will make your headshot stand out. Remember to practice these tips when you are preparing for a headshot session, and you’ll get the most natural, beautiful results. Start by talking with the photographer – ask questions about their experience and take note of their feedback. Then, during your shoot, maintain an easy-going atmosphere and just be yourself while keeping your eyes on the lens.
