ACTOR HEADSHOTS GLASGOW
BRANDING FOR ACTORS: Be Seen, Be Remembered, Leave a Lasting Impression.
Why It Matters
"First impressions are lasting. Once a first impression is made, if it's less than great, unfortunately it takes a long time to change it"
BRAND CLARITY, RELAXED SHOOTS, STUNNING RESULTS.
You are your brand, your brand means business. I work with actors to help them discover their brands and align their headshots for a cohesive look to reflect their desired casting.
My photography approach is truly unique in the area, combining personalised preparation and expert guidance to create headshots that are as authentic as they are striking. My unique process results in versatile headshots that capture the real you, leaving a lasting impression on casting directors.
Where do we start?
The Art of the Process
Crafting Your Best Look (One Step at a Time)
From our first relaxed Zoom consultation to the final photo selection, I’m here to make your headshot experience seamless and fun. We’ll dive deep into your casting type, style, and brand, planning every detail—from outfits to expressions.
On shoot day, expect a guided, comfortable session with plenty of laughs (and snacks!).
Afterward, I’ll help you pick the shots that truly capture your essence. Plus, I’ll be with you even after the shoot, ensuring your headshots shine where it matters most.

Case Study
What Agents and Directors Are Saying
Real experiences from industry professionals and talent—see how my headshots have helped actors stand out and land roles.
Glynis Wozniak - Agent for Lauren O'Hare
“Magdalena Kaminska works with each client to completely customise their headshots to suit their casting type.
She’ll ask about your natural energy – how people see you; what shades of your personality you wish to shine the spotlight on, and more.
It really makes you think about how you see yourself as an actor and where you want to be in your career.
Once Magdalena has these, she compiles a list of photos highlighting your colour palette, and moods alongside well known actors with a similar casting type.
She is absolutely spot on each and every time, and Magdalena’s latest set of headshots for a new client blew me away as showcased every facet of her casting type and personality.
A headshot is the actor’s window. It is literally your portfolio for Casting Directors to see if you fit what they have in mind.
I have had clients cast from headshots alone – or had self tapes requested just from good headshots. If your look fits the bill, they will call you in even without a showreel.
It is therefore a vital part of an actor’s expenditure and, undoubtedly, the biggest investment in yourself and your career. I could not recommend Magdalena highly enough to reveal you at your best.”
Lauren's Headshot Session
“I had an incredible experience with Magdalena for my headshots! From the initial organisation and communication to the actual session, everything was handled with the utmost professionalism and care.
Magdalena instantly put me at ease and made the entire shoot not just comfortable, but genuinely fun.
Her friendly attitude and ability to create a relaxed atmosphere meant we were laughing throughout the session. Her skill and approach helped me feel completely comfortable on front of the camera.
The results are absolutely beautiful – the photographs exceeded all of my expectations. I would highly recommend Magdalena for anyone looking for a talented, personable photographer who can capture genuine moments with warmth and creativity.”

Why I Might Not Be The Photographer For You
Not for the Last-Minute Crowd (Unless You're Ready to Go)
Why It Might Not Work: If you need headshots yesterday, my detailed, carefully planned sessions might not fit your timeline. I rarely offer same-week availability because I believe in getting every detail just right. But if you’re super confident in your casting type, wardrobe, and style, we can make it work on short notice.
For Those Who Prefer a Simple Shoot (But We Can Keep It Quick if You’re Ready)
Why It Might Not Work: If you’re after a quick, straightforward headshot with minimal direction, my in-depth, creative approach might not be your style. I’m all about exploring your range and bringing out your unique essence, which usually takes time. But if you’re already confident in your casting type, wardrobe, and style, we can keep it short and sweet.
Client Stories
Testimonials
"She ensures the background is correct, the lighting is spot on, that your clothes don’t distract/take away from you, and that you feel relaxed in front of the camera... no small detail should ever be overlooked. And with Magda - they never are!"
Scott Thomson
"Magda's in-depth process got me thinking about my casting in a way that I hadn’t before and has helped me know how to sell myself better to casting and industry professionals. It really helped me find more specificity which only aids in knowing where to focus my efforts to grow my brand."
Joanna Deveraux
“Loved my headshot session with Magda, she has a thorough process that takes a lot of the guesswork out of acting headshots and really made me feel prepared for the shoot. Magda is great at communicating before and during the shoot and helped me bring out the exact characterisations I was looking for in my various headshots (...)”
