Here's how it works:
When:
Saturday, July 19th 4-7pm
Where:
At the July 2014 VO Peeps Meetup!
Sessions:
In a quick and fun 10 minutes, you'll get a wonderful blurry background or a light gray colored background both blend natural lighting with a touch of fill flash to even out the shadows and give you a clean, approachable look! It's perfect for Facebook, Websites, Linkedin etc.
And depending on the type of VO you do we may even run a few funny expressions! And you can even bring your Mic and do a few shots with that or any other prop you can think of! : )
What you need to do:
You arrive ready to shoot, hair and clothing in place and CeCe will shoot a variety of angles and views, such as straight on, top down, over the shoulder, so you have lots to choose from.. . about 25-30 images total. And you'll even get a minute to quick proof some of the images shot right then.
Hair and makeup (Optional):
Our very own Ashley Ulery from Double A Artist Image Branding will be offering optional Hair styling and Makeup services prior to your Headshot for an introductory price of just $25 for any one service or $35 for both. (Please note that Hair Styles are subject to stylists discretion due to time constraints.) To schedule an appointment with Ashley, please email [email protected] to schedule a time once you have confirmed your appointment time with CeCe.
Proofing:
The following day, you will be able to view all your proofs online from your computer. CeCe will post all the images (minus the blinks) in an online gallery and email you the link. You can even share the link with friends and family to get their help in selecting your favorite image.
If you choose to receive all the images and you pay in advance I always throw in a few extra shots! : ) and everything is sent to you the following day as high res images via Dropbox.
Delivery:
Once you have decided on the image you want, simply email CeCe the number, and she'll email you back the high res images. Yes! Retouching is available for $35 per image and additional images (after the first 1) are $25 each. Or you can go for the All Inclusive and get everything shot.
That way you'll have lots of images to change up whenever you desire
Payment:
Once you sign up I will send you a payment request via paypal, a list of Tips and Tricks for Getting the Most Out of Your Photo Shoot including ideas on What to Wear.

About Chris Anthony:
Chris Anthony's remarkable vocal talent and warm, engaging personality has, for over three decades, won the trust and respect of many in the voice over industry. Besides a lengthy list of TV and radio commercials, Chris has enjoyed a long and treasured relationship with many toy manufacturers including Mattel, Sony, Milton Bradley, Fisher Price, and Hasbro. Chris' voice has appeared in over 100 talking games, dolls and educational toys, and has guided two decades of children through their earliest years of reading, writing, math, science, geography, and art. Kids have learned everything from how to speak, spell, add and subtract - to what animals hop, swim, slither, and fly - ALL while Chris' cheerful, energetic voice has guided, challenged, encouraged and praised them for a job well done. One of Chris' proudest achievements was her twelve-year relationship with Mattel Toys where she earned the title, “Longest-running voice of Barbie.” In the early nineties when Mattel was designing their first “no-strings-attached” talking Barbie, Mattel chose Chris to be their icon's voice. Starting with Mattel’s 1994 Super Talk Barbie, Chris lent her talents to such talking Barbie products as: Teacher Barbie, Spanish-speaking Barbie, Working-Woman Barbie, and Dentist Barbie. Chris' voice can also be heard in Barbie’s talking Hotel, Cash Register, Kitchen, Lap Top, Jeep, Trike and Camera, as well as dozens of Barbie CD ROM titles such as: Super Sports Barbie, Pet Rescue, Fashion Designer, Barbie Detective, Rapunzel, Sleeping Beauty, Princess Bride, Genie Baribie, Ocean Discovery, Magic Hair Styler, and Barbie Riding Club.. For the past 26 years, Chris has also hosted the hugely - popular, children's radio drama entitled Adventures in Odyssey . Weekly, on over 2,000 radio stations, Chris welcomes two million U.S. and Canadian fans, as she introduces them to another episode of "Adventures in Odyssey!"
