Print the One Photo That Gets You in the Room
On a screen, your headshot is one file lost in a crowded inbox. Printed on real card stock, it becomes the piece a casting director keeps, a model leaves behind, or an agent clips into a press kit. Professional headshots start at $53.83 for a set of 25 and carry a 4.9 out of 5 across 62 reviews. Whether you are reading for a role, meeting an agency, or listing a property, a printed headshot puts your face somewhere it stays.
These prints do the introducing when you are not in the room. They cost less than a coffee run at scale, they arrive on real cover stock instead of glossy home paper, and they come in the exact sizes the industry asks for. Want to see how headshots sit next to the rest of the lineup? Browse every option in the Photography Printing Collection, or stay here and build yours from the choices below.
The price rewards a bigger run. A set of 25 starts at $53.83, and the per-print cost keeps sliding as the count goes up, so a full box for a casting season or a launch costs far less per print than a quick test batch.

What Are Professional Headshot Prints?
Professional headshots are photographic portraits printed full color on real card stock, made for casting, hiring, and branding. At 4OVER4 they print in 2 sizes, the 8" x 10" headshot and the 5.5" x 8.5" comp card, on any of 4 materials, with your ink coverage and finish set in the live configurator. You do not start from a template here, because the photo is the design. You upload your shot, pick the size and stock, and go. If you want your photo on a card you hand out at events instead, the Photography Business Cards put the same image in a wallet-sized format.
What Size Should a Headshot Be?
Two sizes cover the two jobs. The 8" x 10" print is the classic headshot, the format agencies, casting calls, and speaker bureaus expect, big enough to read a face across a table. The 5.5" x 8.5" comp card is the model and actor standard: a composite with a hero shot on the front and several looks plus your measurements on the back. Both sizes, both finishes, and the full material list are grouped below exactly the way the live configurator presents them, so you know what you can change before you change it.
Here are a few easy ways to make a printed headshot pull its weight.
Pick a material that flatters the photo
A brighter gloss makes skin tones and eyes pop, which is why the default 14pt Gloss Cover and the heavier 16pt Gloss Cover are the go-to for portraits. Prefer a modern matte you can write a note on? The 18pt Uncoated Cover reads clean and understated. And the 15pt Metallic Pearl Ice adds a subtle shimmer that lifts a headshot without turning it into a gimmick. Add a High-Gloss UV Coating on top when you want the print to really snap under gallery lights.
Use the back of the card
Full color on the front with a blank back keeps a headshot simple, but printing the back earns its keep. A comp card wants several looks and your stats on the reverse, and an actor headshot can carry a resume, credits, or contact details on the back. Set your ink to 4/0, 4/1, or 4/4 depending on whether you print one side or both.
Proof it before the full run
Skin tone and contrast are easy to get wrong on a screen. Add a free online proof to check the layout, or a next-day hardcopy proof to hold the real print in your hand before the whole order runs. If you already trust your file, choose Straight To Production and skip ahead.
How Much Do Professional Headshots Cost?
Professional headshots start at $53.83 per set of 25, and the per-print price keeps dropping as the quantity climbs toward 2,000, so a cheap headshot really comes down to how big a run you order. A set of 300 lands at $161.47, and a full 2,000-print run is $477.81, which works out to roughly 24 cents each. So how many do you actually need? Drag the slider below to set your count and watch both the set total and the true per-print cost update live, and find the point where one more step up barely moves the budget.
Wally prints the photo that gets the callback
Why a $53.83 stack of headshots does more than a phone screenshot.
A set of 25 professional headshots costs $53.83, printed full color on real card stock, not glossy home paper. Actors, models, and agents hand these out at auditions and meetings. Pick a size, choose a material, and Wally gets them in your hand as fast as same-day.
How Do Headshots Compare to the Rest of the Range?
Printed headshots are the pick when your face has to do the selling, but they are not your only move in the Photography Printing Collection. If you are weighing a card you hand out, a flyer you leave behind, or a bound book of your work, it helps to see the trade-off in plain numbers. The chart below lines up headshots against their closest siblings, including Photography Flyers and Photography Booklets, so you can compare the starting price on each before you choose.

Words only go so far. Want to see how material, color, and finish come together on a real 8" x 10"? The gallery below collects work our own customers printed in-house, across different sizes, stocks, and finishes, so you can borrow ideas and see how a choice actually reads on paper. Tap any print to see it larger.
How Fast Can You Get Headshots?
Headshots print on a 4 business day standard turnaround, and when a date sneaks up you can move that to 3-day, 2-day, Next-Day, or even Same-Day production. Each step buys back time for a set amount on top of the base price, so you only pay for speed when you actually need it. Same-Day orders need to be approved by the daily cutoff to ship that day. Compare every turnaround tier below and see exactly what the rush adds before you pick.
