Kevin Thom - Hamilton, Toronto, Ontario Photographer

Have you been thinking about refreshing your headshots? If you do improv, either as a student or a performer, I’m giving you a reason to get off the back wall and act now. If you book a headshot session with me before April 30, 2011, I’m giving a $150 discount off of my regular rate. That means my standard headshot package that normally sells for $350 is yours for only $200.

NOTE: Our appointment to shoot doesn’t need to be before April 30.  You just have to book and confirm it before then.

Why such a big discount?

I think improv is a life-changing artform. I know that because it changed my life. I want to do what I can to promote improv and the amazing people who embrace it. The improv community has been so instrumental to my success as a photographer. This is my way of saying thanks.

What do I get?

The package comes with a headshot photo shoot. We’ll shoot headshots of you in about three different outfits. From this shoot, you’ll choose two final images for touchups and color corrections. I’ll provide these images in high res and web resolution JPG format, as well as a layout that you can print at 8×10 to hand out with your resume. If you’d like to book professional hair and makeup, that’s $100 extra.

Not an improviser?

If you’re not an improviser, maybe this is a reason for you to get started? Sign up for some improv classes and you’ll be eligible for this discount. Some of my favorite people in the world run improv classes at:

• Impatient Theatre Company
• Bad Dog Theatre Company
• Second City Training Centre Toronto
• The Staircase Theatre Hamilton

Yes, and!

I was really blessed to photograph some amazing people this year. Here are a just few of them. Are you among this group?

Have a wonderful holiday season, and I’m looking forward to shooting with you in the new year!

I had some good news today. I did a headshot session with Melody, who’s a friend of Christina. I shot Christina’s headshots about two weeks ago, and Christina came along with Melody to sit in on the shoot. Christina had some good news. Since she started handing her new headshots out at auditions and to agents, she’s already had five callbacks! It’s always gratifying to hear this type of success story first-hand. Christina’s got a great look, a positive attitude, and an eye-catching headshot. With those ingredients, I’m sure she’ll succeed. Here’s one of the headshots Christina selected from her shoot.

That brings me to my next topic. There are lots of people in Toronto who need great headshots, many of whom have made the trip to Hamilton to see me. But, crazy as it may seem, not all of them are willing to come here. So, in the spirit of Mohammed and his Mountain, I’m packing up my stuff and moving the studio to Toronto… for one day only! On September 14, I’ll be setting up shop at the amazing Gladstone Hotel on Queen Street West at Gladstone.

I’ve rented the luxurious Tower Suite for the day, and hired award-winning makeup artist Sue Upton. All headshot packages will include hair and makeup. Yet, because I’ll be doing a number of sessions that day, the price is still going to be extremely reasonable. Read more about Toronto Headshots Day.
