Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Headshots are normally supposed to be in black and white, so I would leave it like that!. As for the thing about you not looking pretty, I think you look perfectly pretty, but you should also think about what you want casting directors to think when they see you!. This picture to me says "Shy girl", and, if that's what you want to go for, use it! But if you want something else, try that! Just try different things and see what works for you and your type!. You can always bring more than one headshot to an audition, that way they can see all the different things you are capable of, but it's normally good to have a favorite that really states who you are and what your type is!.

One suggestion, though!. When a casting director is looking at a headshot, if you are not smiling, some of them tend to think that you have bad teeth and are trying to hide them!. So, I would smile wide and show off those dimples, so that you don't hide anything!. But I think this picture is a good one to have on hand just in case you think it fits a certain character you are auditioning for!.

<3 good luck!Www@QuestionHome@Com

I think it is very good,
and it depicts you in a great way!.
You have to remember, though,
that people will take you for jobs based on skill,
so don't think people are going to be looking straight for you because of your head-shots!.
often, however, directors pick people for certain roles based on appearance, and this picture would be good for that!.

most people go for pictures in black and white,
but it's good to have both black and white, and colour!.
I hope that you have a good time acting and modeling,

bonne chance, break a leg, I hope to see you on-stage sometime!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

The picture is ok!. The problem is it dosen't stand out from a crowd!. You should consider various poses & angles!. Keep it in black & white it draws more attention to your face!. Just remember that a headshot is an expression of you & how you want them to see you!.Its your first impression so make it count!. If anything do research on webpages & narrow down things that you like & dislike so you can improve your headshot!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

It's a nice look, but its serious nature would make it more appropriate for theater than TV or film!.

You want two looks--serious and smiling!. If you have one of you smiling from this same photo session, I would recommend you use that!.

One thing my agent told me--if you're not smiling they think "What's wrong with her teeth!?"Www@QuestionHome@Com

Pretty, but not for acting!. Casting directors are focusing on you, and the beach is a distraction!. I'd say crop it out!. Another thing, is that they might wanna see your whole head, with you facing the camera!. They look for little details, like what your jaw line looks like!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I think its pretty, but if you're trying to get an acting/ modeling/ whatever job, then I think you should try to change it up!. Everyone always has the same style pictures, and trying something different would make you stand out!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Yes!.
but, if it's for modeling i'd get my eyebrows waxed a bit!.
because you have ingrown hairs and that is your only flaw I notice!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
