There is no way to tell if you have potential as an actress from looking at pictures!. Only if you have talent, do you have potential to become successful!.

Acting is not modeling!. You don't have to be beautiful to be an actor!. You "only" need to be good at !.!.!.!.!.!.drumroll!.!.!.ta-ta! ACTING! And some charisma helps, too!.

So don't worry about your looks!.

That said, you are a very pretty girl, but you absolutely cannot send those horrible pictures out to clients!. They are NOT actor's headshots, and you will come across as totally unprofessional!. Get some real headshots done by someone who specializes in actors headshots (not some glamour photographer)!.

You already have some acting experience, so with a nice new headshot to go with your resume, you should be on your merry way!Www@QuestionHome@Com

Hey J Dawgs,

Great Headshots! Though they are not professional they are great and you look stunning! You shouldn't worry that you won't be "right" for the business because of your picture!. It takes talent, passion, and training to make it into acting!. You've probably got all three in the bag so go ahead, show people your fabulous headshots and kick butt in the film industry!:)

I hope this helped you out! BREAK A LEG!:)

Can't rate ability from a photo!. Photos are attractive!. If you have ability,you have a chance!. Be sure you send professional head shots with your resume and cover letter from a parent!. It is very very difficult to get into the business!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

You look very pretty, but you should also have good acting skills!. I mean, you STILL have a chance at landing a role, but then again, you want people to love not only your looks BUT also your acting skills!. So practice in front of the mirror and you will get it! =]Www@QuestionHome@Com

Yes to the black and white photo!. I like the angle of the shot and your smile looks genuine!. It makes me want to see who you are as a person, and that is important!. That is the photo to use

No to the fake back drop and piano shot!.
