What they Say
“Let me tell you about Joanna……………. She is the best photographer I have EVER shot with, period.
She has a great sense of style and she captures that edge that all agents look for in talent and what casting directors desire when they are looking at pics…
I will only shoot with HER now. And I can’t say enough good about her. I have representation with some small agencies right now and looking to possibly switch to a bigger one so I have sent out pics and resumes to ten B+ agencies AND I have gotten a response back from each one of them. I certainly attribute that to Joanna’s pics, especially since I have sent other pics out before and never received a response. Remember, your PICS get you in the door and your talent gets you the job.”
Thank you Jo!!!

“you are a GENIUS and apparently a magician too! I sent Lynne my favorites and she had one word: WOW!
You’re good, you’re REALLLLY good.”
Russell
“Ohmygosh!! I was so excited to get these yesterday! You were so quick getting them up! I sat here for over an hour and picked out all my favorites. I LOVE the last ones we did. They all look good though. My family and friends all loved the last ones too. No one seemed to really care for the other two poses, but I still want to pick one from each look. I was also hoping you could give your opinion. From the first look, I’ve narrowed it down to 52 and 10. For the second look, 155 and 266. And I have so many from the third look, so I’m confused for that one. I love 307, 446, 461. I love many more than that, but I can have other ones re-touched elsewhere. I’m just trying to narrow it down to three that you can do for me. If there are ones that you liked better amongst the other 509 pictures, feel free to mention those. I’m sure you’re busy, so if you don’t have time, I totally understand. I’m just anxious to get them retouched and printed! I hate having my old ones on LACasting and Actor’s Access, because I have a feeling that’s part of why I’m not getting auditions!”
-Andrea
“I wouldn’t go to anyone else. My session with her was so warm and positive. Joanna definitely exudes an unnameable quality that translates in to her photos. I have recommended her to many other actors and classmates. I can’t wait until I need new headshots!”
-Taylor
‘ Everyone always wants to know who took my headshots. My representation has been so happy with them! Thanks for a great session and great results!”
“Joanna rocks! I’ve never had such a comfortable photo shoot as I did with her…and it shows in my shots..they’re me!!! They’re me feeling goofy, feeling sexy, feeling maternal, feeling tough, feeling powerful…With Brooks I was able to tell her what looks I was going after and together we made it happen. She captured ME and that’s what my previous headshots had been missing. It’s time for me to shoot new ones and I’m definitely going back!!!
I don’t think I’ll ever go to anyone else!!!”
“Joanna is one cool shutterbug! The key to a good headshot is not just about understanding light and making the eyes pop, but also the comfort level with the photographer. Joanna has that relaxing vibe that can bring out anyone’s essence. My new headshots with her helped me book three industrials, the lead role in a short film, and got me numerous auditions. She’s reasonably priced and worth every penny!”
“Wow! I must say she’s the most personable person I’ve ever worked with when it comes to somebody shooting my photographs. I think the most important thing is chemistry between the photographer and the actor–that’s when you’re truly uninhibited to let go, trust yourself with this person and show those characters that you’re portraying. She speaks to you in ways that also helps you for your shots which is awesome! Last but not least, Her photographs are amazing! I’ve gotten so many compliments and continuing to receive those compliments! Truly, Teodorico Paul Sajor”

“Joanna is very artistic in her approach to creating the most effective portraits. Her background in Art and Casting allow her to paint a beautiful picture and tailor it for your specific type. ??Furthermore, from initial meeting to day of shoot to final retouching Joanna was a joy to work with. Her professionalism and humanity far outshines all of the large impersonal cookie cutter photographers with huge price tags and telemarketers. Amazing!”
- Eric
“Joanna is by far the best in the biz. She coached me through each look enabling me to capture the perfect moment many times over. I left the shoot with lots of options and will definitely go back to her the next time around. She has great ideas and a generous spirit! Go Joanna!!!”
“She’s AWESOME–fun to work with & she helped me get the shots that work!!”
-Ingrid
“I have never enjoyed the process of getting a new headshot. Joanna put me at ease and made the afternoon fun. The pictures that came from our few hours together were a positive testament to my mood. The headshot that i got from Joanna is easily the best I have had my entire career. I have been an actor since 1990. Thank you Joanna Brooks. ”
-Khalil Kain
