Why not practice some online etiquette, Delia? You come on asking a vague question without much information, and then once someone finally does respond, you say "I'll ask my question again" because the initial poster didn't answer all your questions?

You ask what a "head shot" is and expect an answer immediately, but there are other references at your disposal. I think many people here would be happy to help you out, but we are not a service for you.

How can you possibly have a photoshoot to do 100 headshots if you're not even sure what one is? I guess I'm just saying you tract bees with honey - not with a lack of detail and repetitive questions until you get the answer you want.

Let us know how they go.

IMO this assignment is a little bit beyond you.

Please don't be discouraging. If no one ever tried things that were beyond them, we wouldn't be where we are.

I have a hard time understanding why someone would want 100 photo's of a child. Just how many photo's are they going to buy? You need to find out just what kind of pictures the parent is after. I have to hand it to you, you have to have a lot of patients to take on this assignment.

Not to make light of the subject but if it was my granddaughter it might take 99 to get her to sit still. I do wish you well with your difficult assignment.

Go to Google, and type in headshots, and you will get some ideas of what to do with headshots.

get a book with 100 different portraits of head shots (they are out there you will have to do some research to find one) and then copy each one using your subject.

A customer wants 100 images of head shot only. Do I need to ask him to pose or just move his head around? Do a head shot involve from the neck up or shoulder or from chest?


Head shots are needed so they can be in films, even short films done by film school students doing short videos, commercials, and needed for working for photographers doing kids portfolios to show other clients. My granddaughter has been doing this since the age of 6 years old, and is now age 10. Head shots include more than the head, sounds like you need to send them to someone else if you do not know this fact. She has done nationwide presentations, many short films, and worked for professional photographers. They normally take between 50 to 100 shots, and you pick out what you like the best.

On the 99th shot, ask him if he is looking forward to Puberty?
