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 literally 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 not only work with actors, musicians and creatives but also with executives and professionals from the corporate world who are all looking for the same thing: images that feel natural, unposed and unmistakably themselves.
A Supportive Experience — Especially If You’re Camera-Shy!
If you feel anxious or awkward in front of the camera, you’re not alone. I specialize in working with people who feel uncomfortable being photographed. My sessions are relaxed, unhurried, and guided every step of the way—designed to help you feel supported, safe to experiment, and open up in front of the camera. My warm approach is especially helpful if it’s your first time getting headshots but just as valuable for seasoned professionals who want more authentic, connected shots.
What Working Together Looks Like
Every headshot package includes a complimentary 30-minute Zoom consultation before your shoot. Think of it as a low-key getting-to-know-you conversation — we’ll chat about your background, your goals, and how you want to be seen. We’ll dig through your closet together to plan your looks and a few backup options, so everything you wear feels intentional and right for your goals.
By the time you walk in for your session, the prep work is done and the thinking out of the way. All you need to do is show up and be yourself.

“Your headshots have opened so many doors. Since I started auditioning I have been cast in two plays, one in the lead which is amazing. I sent my headshots to a few agents and Don Buchwald & Associates called me in... And the latest? I got a callback for the national tour of Dreamgirls!”
“Wow! I love my headshot! Looks amazing! Truly. Everything is perfect. I can’t express how grateful I am for your amazing work. I had such a great time and am truly happy with my pictures.”
“Thank you so much for doing such a great job with my headshots. You’ve been such a sweetheart throughout this whole process. I really appreciate all you did for me...”
“Just wanted to thank you again for the headshots! They just got me a casting with Estée Lauder this Sunday and I’ll be shooting a commercial tomorrow with Karlie Kloss! Insane!!! You are the best!”
