StudioTalk LIVE on Instagram with Ivan Weiss

Last week, we hosted our very first StudioTalk LIVE on Instagram with London-based and HSM Legacy Member, Ivan Weiss. In this 60-minute conversation, Ivan shares what keeps him moving forward creatively and reflects on the delicate dance between creative confidence, humility, and empathy. We spoke about the importance of building your own style — even though his has often been emulated. We also touched on his recent experience from his editorial shoot with actor Troy Baker, and how the mindset and approach behind editorial portraiture connect back to his headshot work.

Thank you to everyone who tuned in and joined us for this StudioTalk LIVE on Instagram.

‘We’re looking forward to more conversations like this — shining light on the creativity and philosophies shaping our community.'

A special thank you to Ivan for sharing his time and valuable insights about his work and the headshot industry in general!

Cheers, Dwayne Brown
