About BaseLayer Photography
BaseLayer Photography exists for one reason: to help actors show up powerfully and authentically.
Based in Dublin and serving actors across Ireland, BaseLayer specialises in cinematic, expressive
headshots that feel honest—not forced. With a relaxed, natural shooting style and an atmosphere built on
trust, music, and good conversation, each session is designed to bring out your best.
What makes a great headshot? It’s not just lighting or gear—it’s connection. It’s that moment where your
presence cuts through. At BaseLayer, headshot sessions feel less like a photoshoot and more like a
collaboration. Most actors leave saying how surprisingly easy and enjoyable the experience was—that
they felt seen, relaxed, and energised.
With a deep understanding of performance and casting, BaseLayer helps actors create headshots that
stand out in a sea of sameness. Whether you’re stepping into the industry or refreshing your Spotlight
profile, this is your space to be fully you—and look damn good doing it.
Let’s capture something real.
