Getting up every time I fall, Headshots that fully represent you and get you in the door.

I’m not intending this entry to be a pity party for myself, but rather a recommitment to the art and business of acting.  The last year has released sparks of hope and small results in comparison to what more successful actors are currently acheiving.   I am not in any way undervaluing the importance of every small step I take, nor the reality that sparks can create fire.  I’m giving up feeling sorry for myself that I have to reshuffle and recreate my approach at least once a year if not more often.  As a result of speaking to my manager Mireille and learning that there is an incongruency between the age I come across in photos and the age I appear to be on camera and at auditions,  I’m taking new pictures on November 20th.  Once again.  Getting feedback from Casting directors that “she’s too young looking” is nothing really to complain about.  Yes, I’ve spent thousands and thousands of dollars on pictures that don’t seem to work.  Melinda Kelly, photographer, this Thursday it is your chance.
