I have had such great success with my headshots by Robin Emtage. She is a great person to work with. She made it really easy and fun. She was very encouraging and made me feel very comfortable and relaxed. Her charisma and creativity are so inspiring! She pays attention to every detail. The results were a choice of many photos that I could make into 8×10’s. She definitely takes photos that get you auditions.

Coming from London I had to reinvent myself. My old photos were limited. I wanted to get great acting headshots. Because of the creative talents of Robin Emtage, I now have a variety of photos that wonderfully reveal the range of my personality. Robin is very calming and a lot of fun. We were laughing the whole time, and she gives really good direction.

JarrodARET5 Robin is able to do what a lot of headshot photographers failed to do, make me look like an actor instead of a football player. She is clear about what poses look best and she brings it out in her subjects. The way she lights darker skin tones is like no other. I am very blessed, as her husband, to have access to her brilliant photographic eye.

Luke Robin Emtage really knows what actors need in their headshots to get them called in by casting directors; her headshots make an impression that lasts. She is a great director with her camera. She puts you at ease and captures you at your best. The eyes in her photos talk to you. I feel confident in recommending Robin for her great acting headshots. She is by far the best LA headshot photographer I’ve ever worked with.

  Thanks for your great headshots, Robin.  I have gotten a theatrical and voice
over agent, to add to the commercial agent since I took my shots. Everyone is very pleased with my photos.  My commercial agent put this shot on LACasting this morning and I had two auditions for the next day. Pretty cool! I have given your number to a few friends of mine who will sure contact you for a session.
Hope you are well and thanks again.

Talia_Thiesfield_A_RET copy Robin Emtage is the best headshot photographer in LA. She takes the stress out of the headshot experience. From our very first meeting, I felt comfortable and confident that my pictures were going to be the best I’ve ever had.  And that feeling was right on!  I’ve never had commercial shots that looked so spontaneous and real!  The makeup was GORGEOUS, the space was warm and inviting, and Robin really took her time getting everything right.  She knows what the agents and casting directors are looking for, and furthermore, the same agents and casting directors know and respect her work when they see it.  Since getting my new headshots, my responses on the casting websites have increased tremendously.  I am so happy with my choice of a photographer. I would shoot with Robin a hundred times over again.  It was by far the best headshot experience I’ve had to date.

Robin’s work has certainly enhanced my acting career. She’s very careful about snapping the right moment, and then helps you to pick out the right photos that’ll serve you well. I get comments all the time on my headshots. “The photographer really lit your face well.” “There is so much going on in your face”. “Your eyes stand out”. “The backdrops compliment you well”. “It looks so natural.” With Robin’s work, I recently got signed theatrically/commercially. My photos grab the attention of most casting directors and producers. They have opened a lot of doors and got me many auditions. Through Robin’s work, I have worked with Tom Sigel, Robin Reed, and John Ridley to name a few. I’ll be coming back soon.

BethanyDotsonBRET copy Hi Robin, First of all let me tell I have never had such a hard time narrowing down my choices. There were so many good ones to choice from. I’d take a really good look and then leave them alone for a day, come back and I find new ones that didn’t strike me before. I want to take you up on helping me narrow them down. Wow! Thank you so much.

Hi Robin, I just can’t begin to tell you how happy I am with your photography.  I have worked with a lot of photographers and makeup artists in my life, and you are simply the best headshot photographer I have worked with. Not only that, you are a sweetheart of a person, and in this wild and crazy world, this is such a BLESSING!  I know that I will have no trouble finding acting working in LA, because of these wonderful headshots that capture the essence of “me”! You are a true artist and I’m so glad to have met a new friend!

IslBG My acting career was stalled until Robin Emtage entered my life. She relaxed me during our work session. There were about 2 DOZEN that I liked and could use as my headshot! Robin is the real deal as a creative inspiration to me as an actor. She charmed and encouraged me in such a way that I increased in self-appreciation. Robin and her camera are “pure magic.” Thank you so much Robin. I am proud and pleased to hand my photo to casting directors. You “the woman!” Heartfelt thanx

I searched online viewing hundreds of websites looking for the best headshot photographers in Los Angeles. Robin Emtage was one of the few LA headshot photographers that stood out. Her professionalism and expertise can be seen in the quality of my photos, not to mention she saved me hundreds of dollars. I had so many great shots to choose from. Her knowledge of makeup and of the camera ensured that I achieved the results that I desired. Her guidance and communication while shooting helped me create the looks I needed. She made me feel completely at ease, and her home setting created the relaxed, comfortable environment I needed to give the camera my best. After the shoot she gave me great headshots advice; her tips were helpful in getting me started in Hollywood. The next time I need headshots I will return to Robin.
-Jim Fisher
 
Thanks again for everything. I am so happy with my decision to go with you. I love my headshots and I am getting a good response from the Casting directors, etc., that I’ve sent them to. I am getting a lot of calls for auditions. Your tips on who/where to call and sign up with have proven invaluable. Yesterday I worked on Grey’s Anatomy and I feel that at least some of that reason was because of you. People ask about my headshots and photographer, I recommend you in the best way I know how. A million thanks and I’m sure you’ll be hearing from Kristi and I in the future.

Robin very graciously allowed Jim to bring me along to the shoot for moral support. She made me feel just as comfortable as Jim in her home and during the shoot; she was very warm and personable. As for the headshots; the results were amazing. She made my husband feel completely at ease, and her home setting created the comfortable environment he needed to give the camera his best. The beautiful natural light, the great poses, the makeup, she is a true artist. My husband’s headshots are fantastic. It gives me pleasure to testify!!!

SoniaPerozziARET copy Robin,

Ciao!! I am so happy and pleased with my headshots and I wanted to thank you again. I really enjoyed working with you. You have great energy and from the very beginning to the end you were helpful. I instantly received positive feedback. Just the other day before I could even get your last name out at Reproductions, they knew who you were. Said you were one of the best LA headshot photographers. Said your headshots were always great. I made the right choice. Grazie!
A presto,
-Sonia Perozzi

I appreciate all of your hard work. Those pictures are the best I have ever had. I have been working steadily since I got those pic. It feels good to walk into an audition or a meeting with headshots you feel so good about (a bit of added confidence that we all need). I believe that you do some of the best work in town and your prices are very reasonable. My manager refers you to her clients. I’m so glad Jarrod told me about you. Again thanks for everything, Robin.

And of course, thanks for directing and coaching me thru the shoot. You made it easy. You are the best headshot photographer! Not to mention, you are an amazing makeup artist. Robin, as far as I’m concerned, no one can compare.
