Getting new headshots can be a super stressful experience. Trust me, I get it. It’s big investment and you want to get it right. Your photographer and MUA are there to support you and do the heavy lifting so you can relax and HAVE FUN (I know, crazy right?) Here are a few tips that can help you to feel prepared leading up to your shoot so you can walk in with confidence!✨

New year, re-introductions✨
Hi!👋 I’m Carly and I am an MUA based in NYC, specializing in actor headshots, portraits, and event makeup. I love creating polished, camera-ready looks that still feel like you - whether it’s the perfect headshot, re-brand, or red carpet.
Here’s to fresh faces, new projects, and a new year full of beauty! 🍾

A lot can happen in a year! ✨
Thank you to all of my beautiful 2025 clients and photographers that helped to make this year so amazing. Being able to express myself creatively through makeup is such a joy and I am so grateful to all of you for trusting me with your gorgeous faces 🫶🏻
See you all in 2026!

So fun glamming my client CeCe for her event last week ✨ This time-lapse really shows how fast the magic happens—and how working in thin layers builds that soft, seamless glam. I only wish I could do my own makeup this quickly 🫠

Your headshots should reflect who you are and how you see yourself in the industry. It’s smart to consider the types of roles you connect with, but trying to “dress up” as a character can work against you. Casting directors aren’t looking for a copy of someone else—they want to see you and your unique take on a role!
