TAMARA TIHANYI PHOTOGRAPHY

Greetings,
I'm Tamara Tihanyi, the photographer behind TihanyiPhoto. For the past 15 years, I've had the privilege of specializing in headshots here in Los Angeles, working with thousands of young actors—from complete beginners to rising talent and even established celebrities. Over the years, many of the children and teens I’ve photographed have gone on to book major brand campaigns and appear in films and shows like Jurassic World, Avatar, Wednesday, Stranger Things, and many others. It’s truly an honor, and I’m always grateful to play even a small part in their creative journeys.
​
My approach to photography is shaped by my background in the entertainment industry as a commercial model and actress, which gives me a deep understanding of what agents, managers, and casting directors truly look for in a standout headshot. As a mom of kids who’ve dabbled in the industry themselves, I bring a unique understanding and patience to working with children—helping them feel comfortable, confident, and authentically themselves in front of the camera.
​
I’m a perfectionist in the best way, always striving to provide a supportive experience from start to finish and to deliver images that genuinely elevate each client’s opportunities. Nothing makes me happier than seeing the kids and families I work with succeed.
​
Thank you so much for considering TihanyiPhoto. If you have any questions or you're ready to schedule a session, I’m always here and happy to help.

Your future success is just one click away - let's capture it together!

Headshots are your No 1. marketing tool
It's time to go pro
When it comes to headshots, it might be tempting to ask a friend with a camera for a free or cheaper shoot. However, investing in a professional headshot photographer can truly elevate your career. Your headshot isn't just a photo; it's your main marketing tool and the first impression casting directors have of you. It's your calling card and can often decide whether you land a job or not.
To make sure your headshot shines and presents your best self, it's crucial to hire a professional photographer. As a performer, you're essentially running a business, and treating it that way means investing in top-notch, professional headshots. A subpar headshot can tarnish your brand and potentially make the industry take you less seriously.
As an experienced professional headshot photographer, I know how to use lighting and other techniques to capture your best angles. I understand precisely what agents and casting directors are seeking, and I can assist you in creating a headshot that sets you apart from the competition.
I'm here to provide you with images that make you stand out, give you a competitive edge, and earn the admiration of your agents. Let's work together to achieve just that!
​
I want to get you the images that will help you stand out, be competitive and your agents will LOVE.

Which package is right for you?
I offer three session options across three distinct locations, each providing a unique aesthetic. You can choose:
​
-
Outdoor sessions with natural light in the Mid-Wilshire area of LA.
-
Indoor sessions with natural light at a downtown LA studio.
-
Indoor sessions with studio lighting and colored backgrounds at my Santa Clarita home studio.
​
Please note, headshots only are available at the Santa Clarita studio. If you need 3/4 or full-body shots for modeling, or your agent/manager prefers a more editorial style, I recommend booking an outdoor session or the downtown LA studio. For these needs, select a 'portfolio' session.
It’s always a good idea to check with your agent or manager before booking to ensure the session fits their expectations.
