I've not looked through all 505 shots yet. These are a few that grabbed me from the ones the photog said were his favorite.

Color is EXTREMELY unforgiving and these are unretouched. Just so you know. Comments on what says "me" and "hire me" welcome. Comments on things the retoucher will fix (everything from unevenness in my lipstick to stray hair to clothing wrinkles), while welcome, aren't needed; I pay people for that ;)

I have things to say about all of them and me and the process and what I see about me in them, but I don't want to share until I hear you all as I am a biasing force, although I will admit I'm in that "I'm ugly and weird" phase of this process (totally typical) because of how NOT MODERN my face is no matter what I do.

Also, there will be more posted later as I'll probably bounce around in a few directions in the process of making choices. And yes, I'll be choosing multiple photos for multiple purposes including a couple of headshots, a little special skills card (with dance and fencing photos) and various other things.

I am doing color because, despite kinda everything about me, film loves me and I love film.

The first shot (blue shirt, no smile) strikes me as character who feels she's been wronged and willing to do something to rectify that. Great shot but intense and very specific. The first person I thought of when I saw that shot is Juilette Binoche.

The red shirt reads as a the good-natured protagonist, like in a romantic comedy. Really nice sunlight.

The second suit shot definitely says hire me although I think of it as a great shot more for print work than for acting. Maybe it's because I don't feel a specific character in it but maybe that's what a headshot is supposed to be in order for the director to imposed what they need onto you, I don't really know. Fantastic shot of the suit.

My hands down favorite is the black shirt leaning against the wall. This is the photo that shows you as the romantic lead the Australian saw you embodying.
