Our TalentStart Students!

People are terrific, amazing, and beautiful, but all pictures are not. Here are some examples of how great performers can have substandard photographs and what you can do to turn them into amazing headshots. No professional makeup artists were used in any of these after shots. By using basic rules of wardrobe, styling, and determining the character "type" we were going for, I was able to better showcase the actor.

With hard work, men, women, and children can follow their dreams. Lars' guidance has helped many actors create the career of their dreams.


 

Lar -

I couldn't have guessed that a chance meeting with Lar Park Lincoln at a monthly talent showcase would ignite a friendship and successful career. Her experience in the industry and gift of teaching has been an invaluable inspiration and a milestone in my career.

After our first consultation, it was evident that I lacked the tools necessary to market my talent. We replaced my laughable headshot (appropriately tagged the "morgue" shot), identified my type and developed an audition technique that helped me book my first union feature and national commercial only weeks after.

I'm forever grateful to Lar for believing in me. Her insight and creative sensibility are irreplaceable. With enough tenacity and hard work, perhaps one day I can thank her publicly.

Lar,

Thanks for all your encouragement and support. It means so much the confidence and knowledge you give me. I know that with your tools I can become a working professional actress. Here we go!

Hey Lar,

Lar,

I must say, a large part of why I want to work with you on an ongoing basis, besides the results that your students are getting, is that you genuinely seem to care about me (or any of your actors) and my success. I really appreciate that, Lar. That says a lot about you as a person.

Sincerely,

Russell

I really do appreciate all your help. I haven't felt like I've made this much headway in a long time.

That shot got me hired! Lar coached me in a photo shoot, She wouldn't stop with ordinary, we worked until we had extraordinary-and IM no easy subject!! The very shots she designed actually got me an agent and then booked me a job- I couldn't believe it! After all these years- I just cant believe I spent so much wasted time on run of the mill shots!! Never again!! Thank you Lar!!

I am so thankful for all of your help. I recognize that you are so busy and have so many other students, but when we are talking and organizing my career, I always feel I am the only person you care about. Thank you for that.
I really enjoyed the class on Saturday- I'm PUMPED!

Jenna

I wish to thank you for your guidance and friendship (and patience). It really has meant a lot to us over the past couple of years to know we have found the most knowledgeable coach, who respects her clients and guides with both experience and heart.
