I am very happy to say that Sean Biggins delivered me a very professional end result product. A very comfortable atmosphere was provided during the shoot and helped me to achieve exactly the looks I was trying to capture. If you are looking to get new headshots, I highly recommend you look into Sean's work. He has the ability to focus on what you are trying to achieve with your looks and produces great results. My agent was very pleased with the final results of the shoot, but more important, I was extremely happy with what Sean captured. One of the best I have worked with in quite a long time and from this point I will continue to use Sean when there is a need to update my photos again...

Sorry this is a long one, but the actors will appreciate this…read more There's several things I've learned since moving to LA almost 2 years ago. I need cigarettes more than ever, good sleep is a rare luxury, and that headshot photographers are basically the same as the majority of hairdressers out here: they're usually bitter and out to make you look chopped AF. You know the feeling: they'll look you straight in the face with your haircut that makes you wanna cry as a grown ass man, charge you some bloated price and expect a huge tip too, and you just wanna get home so you can hide and cry for a couple weeks till things even out somewhat and you can go on with your weird life. It's usually an identical experience with the overabundance of amateur "photographers" roaming the streets looking to fund their OF addictions. Istg, I'm BEYOND surprised, shocked even, that I found Marc. I don't think he even REALLY knows how valuable and badass he is as a headshot guy. Maybe he does. I would hope the later. Yesterday I walked into his studio on LITERALLY an hour of sleep, hair not washed, a million things on my mind, knowing I had work later that day, so basically completely not in any sort of mental state to "give" anything for these headshots that my director really wanted from me,... basically I looked like crap and wasn't feeling myself either. The perfect client The studio itself has lots of fun art on the walls and his setup is great. After we exchanged pleasantries and established a basic idea of what we were trying to achieve with our time, we jumped into shooting. The poor guy: I kept giving him NOTHING I really wasn't feeling myself like usual and was honestly just hoping I could make it back home in time to catch an hour of sleep before heading into work. This guy is something else,ONG: clearly a genuine actor at heart. He caught every single instance when I gave false emotion throughout the entire process, and like a seasoned director or a well versed scene partner, was able to actually infuse some much needed energy into our session, all with the miniscule scraps of anything I was physically able to provide him. You know how crazy that is? I was literally not feeling myself AT ALL, I was just fronting honestly, and Marc wasn't just willing and able to make this whole thing work just to cash a check: I could FEEL that he was trying to make something GREAT out of nothing A clear communicator with a ridiculously sharp eye, he pinpointed what was needed on my part to breathe life into our session. About halfway through, I started to see through my brain fog a bit, and thanks to his hyper involvement style, finally started to feel ENGAGED in the process. I got to see the shots at several stages throughout the process, and again, stayed consistently impressed that he was able to work in such a clear cut fashion. If you're an actor, you have to understand how rare this is. THE GUY TAKES PRIDE in his craft!!! he genuinely wants his work to reflect his own undeniable talent, and is willing to wade through the mud(ME!), to get to the good stuff. Sorry, I know this is long AF, I haven't even gotten the fully edited shots back yet, but even just looking through the raw pictures after our appointment, I'm in actual awe. I can actually look through the footage, and pinpoint where I was feeling myself and where I was falling flat Maybe I'm also just a bit traumatized after dealing with SO MANY subpar,asinine photographers in my short time here LA, but this is worth mentioning. I've only had terrible luck with headshot guys so far, and somehow, on a chance, I ran into someone that could produce something AMAZING when I was at my worst, and I've only known photographers to have me at my best and most polished and attentive, while making me look terrible. There's so many hacks out here, and I actually found a professional. This is long and kinda ranty, and I don't make a habit of kissing butt. Long story short, I looked through the previous reviews and I get what they were all trying to say: Marc's the real deal. If you want seriously good headshots by someone that knows wtf they're doing, hit this guy up!!! An insanely good experience, if I could give 10 stars on here, I would I found out a bit ago that I finally booked my first big movie and needed headshots that looked professional. I'm happy AF that I picked this place: I'll finally look like I know what I'm doing ONE HUNDRED PERCENT coming back for more headshots in the future. Thanks again Marc, I know the final edits are gonna be sick

I found LA Reels by way of a referral from my talent management team. Since this was my first time…read moreseeking out custom demo reel services, (and my reel essentially is my calling card of my work) despite the referral, I did do my research by looking into other companies. I was happy to discover that LA Reels was the best option in the LA area for many reasons. The customer service is top notch. The day I called, Brett immediately answered the phone. He answered all my questions, and promptly followed up with an email with their rates and information on how to move forward. Brett is polite, professional, detail oriented, not to mention a great film maker. Also, their rates are reasonable, and their payment options are easy. The scheduling was effortless. I hired Brett and his team to custom write two scenes for me. I was able to get an appointment for a brainstorming session the next day. Brett was able to conceptualize what it was I was seeking in both a comedic and dramatic scene. His writer Amanda, took the breakdown from our session and wrote two very appropriate scenes that would showcase not only my type, but my range and abilities as an actor. Film day was fun and ran efficiently. Brett's crew was hard-working, friendly. They made the entire experience on set feel high budget, while also maintaining a relaxed and supportive environment for everyone involved. The best part is, I was able to get my clips very soon after our shoot. The results of this entire process was two exceptionally produced custom demo reels to strengthen my body of work! At the end of the day, when I sought custom demo reel services I wanted a company that would be able to produce scenes that would reflect my work in the best possible way. Not only did LA Reels exceed this expectation, but I had a wonderful experience working with these people. Hands-down, the best custom demo reel film company out there!

GREAT PEOPLE AND WORK that help and showcase you. The scenes of which were just normal scenes that were written for me by them were like a short story you would see in a fully produced independent feature film at any major film festival and then my very first SHORT FILM called "Love and Promotions"...Noah Edwards as a director has the vision he wants to execute when he is planning the shoot with his creative team and helps guide the actor in a short amount of time. Brett Newton and Clint Riffo and Tada Yoshida round out the team along with Amanda Glassman and they get the job done as the core group at LA REELS. Great look for a great price and These folks are in my opinion bringing their A-game to each new task. I look forward to them someday making there feature film and seeing what pops off the screen. They have the talent and the knowledge to make you feel great about your product. GO LA REELS.

I've been looking forward to writing this review for a while, and now that we've gotten our wedding…read moreproofs, I can finally tell the yelp world how pleased we are with our photographer Jordan and with our pictures! When we first started planning our wedding, we were deciding whether or not to hire a photographer and if professional pics were something we could cut out of our budget. We are SO glad we didn't. It's the one thing that we look back on and cherish the most from our wedding. And since I love making lists, I'd like to make a list of the top 5 reasons why Jordan is a must for your wedding photography (in no particular order): 1. He is super fast with processing our pictures! In my opinion, after a wedding, the thing you most look forward to, besides the honeymoon and opening the presents, is looking at wedding photos! Our wedding was on a Sat evening, and by Monday morning 10am, Jordan had sent us a few beautiful sneak peek photos. 3 weeks later, we had our proofs of all the photos online with a handy link to share with our friends. Talk about ideal! 2. He goes out of his way to get to know his clients. My husband and I deeply appreciated the fact that Jordan really wanted to understand what would work best for us in terms of wedding pictures. He wanted to cater his photography for the way our wedding was, which was amazing. He demonstrates this through; discussing all the details of our day and what we wanted. He met with us for a walk-through of our location well before the day of the wedding, as well as multiple phone calls. It gave us a sense of security that anything we needed or wanted we could tell him and it would be covered. 3. He is fun and personable and most importantly professional! Several of my bridesmaids commented that Jordan "definitely has the personality a photographer should have." That is, he is able to make a person feel instantly comfortable, on and off the camera. Even some of the groomsmen who usually hate being in pictures said they had a lot of fun, which I can definitely tell from the hilarious poses in some of the pictures! 4. He is flexible! We were running a little late for our portraits before the ceremony, and Jordan was able to roll with it and shift our schedule around a bit in order to accommodate everyone. AND he was pleasant through it! This was a great relief and appreciated :) 5. He is a true artist! His pictures and eye for great photos is unparalleled. Most of the photographers we looked at felt like they just had the regular wedding pictures, his felt like art pieces. This was a factor in deciding to make the photography a huge priority. His pictures captured the joy and love we felt that day perfectly. Admittedly, there were a few poses Jordan suggested during the portrait session that I was a bit skeptical of, but of course, these very pictures are some of my favorites. We feel lucky to have found Jordan while planning our wedding, and he has our highest recommendations. We would give him 6 stars if we could! THANK YOU!!

From someone that has an enthusiastic love and appreciation for photography and it's ability to…read morecapture life and the beauty that it holds, I am more than willing to divulge my appreciation for Jordan and his art. I've have the absolute pleasure of having Jordan shoot my family and I couldn't have been more pleased. He captured who we are as a unit and created a gift for us that we will always have. The greatest thing about Jordan is he seems to have the ability to capture our affection, love and reality without manufacturing anything. His passion is infectious and allows us to be vulnerable and ourselves in front of someone that you would have thought we have known our whole lives. And trust me, this is nearly impossible for me in normal circumstances. I really do feel fortunate to have been the subject of his work and thank him immensely for the treasures that I will have for a long time to come. I will be a repeat customer.
