Sessions available on Sunday 25th May 2025 at Mark Jermin Swansea.

For any student at Mark Jermin in 2025 we will be hosting a top UK photography session at our South Wales HQ: Venue No.1 Swansea  

These Headshot sessions will provide students and clients an opportunity to update their Spotlight pictures and set themselves up for success 

Book Your Headshot Place

Select your time slot and proceed to payment to secure your photography session

Headshots are the very first thing a prospective casting director will see of you on Spotlight, so it’s important to get every aspect of the image right. Creating the right impression with the perfect headshot will help you appear professional, stand out to casting directors and give you the best possible chance of being selected for auditions. 

INFORMATION AHEAD OF SUNDAY 25TH MAY 2025

Mark Jermin Photography appointments are available to book throughout each sitting by selecting your time slot below.

The cost per student or per photography session is £74.50.

This will be a digital shoot and students are shot in colour. Students will receive a contact sheet showcasing their “best selects” from the shoot and 1 x edited / retouched image. (This will be chosen by Mark Jermin)

Further editing and retouches can be purchased directly via the photographer if you wish to obtain more,

Please arrive at your session with 2-4 tops which provide clear looks and styles for your pictures. We advise it is best to steer away from frills, bold colours, labels and distracting wording/print to ensure the focus of the photo is solely on the actor.

Mark Jermin Management will be sent a selection of highlighted images following the shoot and will select the best pictures for editing and using for casting purposes. 

If you are a student or parent keen to know more about Mark Jermin Management, how the professional opportunities work, or you’re keen to get new headshots, more information can be given and explained in the Agency meetings for in-person students on Sunday 11th February 2024 at Venue No.1 

We predict these headshot slots will be incredibly popular so please do book ASAP if interested.

Places will only be confirmed and reserved for those who have completed payment.

Your Look for your Shoot

What to Wear to a Photo Shoot

Choose an outfit that aligns with your personality and compliments your style and look. Bright colours are great to create a positive vibe, but it’s best to avoid distracting patterns or anything that will make you look ill or nude. Likewise, avoid bringing props, hats and accessories that could divert a casting director’s attention away from you.

It’s a good idea to also bring some backup clothes in case the colour isn’t working or the photographer would like to try something different. It’s a good idea to keep in mind what the casting director’s first impression will be – and how your outfit will be part of that. 

What to do With Your Make-up and Facial Hair

It can be tempting to get your make-up done professionally for something as important as your performer headshots. After all, this is potentially one of the most significant photographs you’ll ever take and you will want to look your absolute best.

While it’s obviously nice to be pampered, we advise that you wear as minimal make-up as possible and keep the photos natural. 

If you’re somebody with facial hair, it’s a good idea to have some photos with the hair and some without, so consider having a shave halfway through the photo shoot to get shots of both.
