NYC Headshot Photographer for Actors & Professionals

Hancock Headshots is a Brooklyn-based headshot photography studio serving actors and professionals throughout New York City.

Since opening my studio in 2006, I’ve photographed thousands of actor, corporate, and personal branding headshots for clients at every stage of their career.

Recognized among the top headshot photographers in NYC, I work with actors, executives, musicians, and creatives who want images that feel natural, confident, and unmistakably themselves.

Whether you’re an actor hoping to stand out in a sea of thumbnail images or a business professional refreshing your LinkedIn profile, a strong headshot is often the first — and most lasting — impression.

While the goals may differ, the need is the same: an image that feels authentic, current, and engaging.

A Supportive Experience — Especially If You’re Camera-Shy

For many people, getting their photo taken feels intimidating and uncomfortable, and you end up postponing it year after year. If that sounds familiar, you’re not alone.

I specialize in working with people who don’t love being photographed.‍ ‍My sessions are relaxed, unhurried, and guided every step of the way—designed to help you feel comfortable and supported, and show up naturally in front of the camera. This approach is especially helpful for first-time headshots but equally as valuable for seasoned professionals who want more authentic results.

What Working Together Looks Like

All of my headshot packages include a complimentary 30-minute FaceTime consultation prior to the shoot. During our call, we’ll talk through your goals, background, and how you want to be seen—and review wardrobe options together.

By the time you arrive at the studio, all of this prep work frees you to focus on the more important job of connecting confidently with the camera.
