Default Best model / actor headshot photographers?
I'm doing a little research and could use some help. In your opinion... Who are the best headshot photographers in the world. I'm putting together a list.

Thanks in advance.

MR

One of my favourite photographers is Yousuff Karsh.

He's the one that took this wonderful shot of Winston Churchill:

Annie Leibovitz. I don't know if she does headshot photos specifically, but she is a famous portrait photographer.

i dont know is Annie would be the "headshot" queen... her fashion/themes stuff is incredible tho'
whan Angelina Jolie or the Obamas want portraits done.. she's the one they call.

Theo and Juliet: Many currently working actors in LA use them. Look at their portfolio and I'm sure you'll recognize at least a dozen of them.
