I have been getting TONS of compliments. More importantly I have started getting a lot of auditions literally once I replaced my old photos on the casting sites. This is not an exaggeration. Since my last shoot, 3 years ago, my audition hits almost dried up. The week I posted Brian's photos I have been auditioning non stop and booking! As long a Brian takes photos he will be the only person who I will work with. He is HIGHLY recommended.

JP at Click West Photo has provided me with the best headshots in all that time! He has an incredible eye for detail and knows what lighting and colors will best represent who you are as an actor.

I highly recommend Click West Photo and JP for your next photo shoot!!!

I've visited Mayari three times now. I first came in to take a few photos with my boyfriend. The…read morephotos turned out so great and I loved it so much that I brought two of my girlfriends in to take photos for their LinkedIn and dating profiles. We ended up taking some friendship photos together too. The studio uses one-of-a-kind technology to shoot professional quality photos in a self-portrait photobooth. There are plenty of presets you can choose from and the lighting and background automatically adjust. One of the best features of their system is that you have a live screen feedback that shows you how you look in real time so you can adjust your pose or facial expression. It also shows the photos taken right away. I learned so much about how I photograph just in one session. Also, you can do as many looks as you want! There is a changing area and mirror for you to change into different outfits. I was able to comfortably shoot 3-4 looks in a 60 minute session. Booking was easy and there was plenty of street parking. Merrick, the studio owner and designer/innovator is super nice, very informative and is there if you have any questions. You also get all your photos delivered to you via a Dropbox link the same day. Merrick even made a custom preset for us when one of my girlfriends and I when came in for a "Barbie" themed photoshoot since I wanted a pink backdrop! I was able to snag their promo special. It's so affordable. It's definitely worth a visit if you're looking for headshots, commemorating a milestone or if just want some fabulous photos of yourself.

We had such a great time at Mayari Self-Portrait Studios. It's super easy to operate the hardware,…read moreI loved all the different lighting options you get within 1 click, you can take as many pictures as you'd like and you see the picture right away on a screen which gives you instant feedback of which poses work and which don't. There's also no pressure as you can take breaks in between, and for shy people, it's a life safer because you can take your time warming up to the camera and try out different shots without worrying that somebody might be judging you. We went as a group of 3 and each of us took some personal headshots plus some group shots. If you come camera ready, there's really plenty of time to do actual shots and the price is great. The owner Merrick is so helpful and nice and we can only highly recommend the whole business to anyone who needs professional headshots but wants to do it on their own time.

I usually dread having headshots taken, but Mike is really easy-going and his fun personality made it feel more like hanging out with a friend than a headshot session. He has great suggestions and an amazing eye for detail.

Here in NYC Mike has been my go-to headshot photographer for years. Now that he's moved to L.A.,…read moreI'm kind of at a loss! Mike really takes the time to craft the look you want. I used to find getting regularly updated headshots an intimidating and uncomfortable experience, but the first time I used Mike his professionalism, sense of humor, and genuine desire to get the best headshot you want really set me at ease. What Mike does brilliantly, in my opinion, is to bring out your personality in multifaceted ways. I know that after a session with Mike I'm going to definitely have 3, 4, or 5 great shots that show completely different aspects of my personality that I can use depending on what circumstance requires. If you want someone who takes the time to bring out the best of you, then you can't go wrong with Mike! -- Tim Gerard Reynolds

I…read morehonestly couldn't have asked for a better experience - not only did he truly listen to what I envisioned, but he seamlessly brought that to life. Both him and his wife created such a supportive, fun environment that helped calm all of my nerves so we could get the best possible photos. Did I mention that his wife, Rachel, is a hair and makeup guru? She gave each of my "looks" their own essence to ensure a greater variety while also being right on deck to fix any flyaway hairs inbetween shots. These two lovely people honestly couldn't have done a better job. I am beyond excited to work with them again in the future.

Douglas did my first headshot 4 years ago, and through all the other photographers I've worked with, Douglas is the one and only best of all. And don't let his over the top fair and inexpensive pricing fool you, he is the has remarkable quality and is the absolute best bang for your buck in LA. So many search and search for a headshot photographer in the overwhelming sea of photographers in and around Hollywood. If you're reading this review, you needn't search a second longer. You've found Douglas and he is an absolute master of his work. His eye is exquisite and second to none. His experience is built on decades of passion, God given talent, and a relentless fire to study and refine. He has the skill of a master, and the ambition and eagerness a student. Douglas also has a 6th sense when it comes to knowing when to snap the shot. I noticed during the shoot sometimes he'd snap early on a pose and other times he'd wait as long as 10 seconds or more. I mentioned it to him and he said he fully crafts each shot, and waits until your eyes move him, and what he captures of you in that fraction of a second is so honest and pure. Good photographers get 2 keeper shots out of 36. With my shoot, Douglas was 75 for 75 and I mean that literally. Every darn shot was stunning and each had something different to say. My only complaint is they're ALL so incredible, it's next to impossible to choose you're top 15 because they're all that good. Another thing with Douglas is he really enjoys his work which adds so much to the results for headshots. His enthusiasm for the work brings so much energy to your shoot and his warmth puts you at ease. He guides and directs you meticulously and comfortably. He answers questions thoroughly and thoughtfully. And one other thing that's definitely worth noting is his studio. It's clean, private, and very accommodating. He has a dressing room for you to use fully equipped with racks to hang clothing on, a big and brightly lit vanity, as well as almost anything you may need (hairspray, dental floss, trimmers, etc). Also, his studio equipment is top of the line which offers endless options of the very highest of quality (camera, lighting, software, etc). So there you have it. That's my attempt to articulate how great Douglas is and how amazed I am with our shoot. I'm quite obviously ecstatic with our results!!! Thank you so much Douglas. I look forward to our next time shooting!!
