Our History and Emphasis
Entertainment and publishing: With a long history of editorial work, mostly focused within the entertainment industry, we’ve shot at all the major film and television studios. The original emphasis of celebrity and fashion pictorials broadened to include headshots for actors & personalities. Over 3000 actors and models have been photographed.
San Diego Headshots: In 2011, with 8 million miles logged traveling, Laurens decided to focus more work in his hometown. A state-of-the-art San Diego headshot studio was built in downtown San Diego. The client focus is corporations, professionals and their firms, and creative agencies. Laurens’ focus is headshots and lifestyle imagery. Kiernan shoots the corporate events. The studio’s opening means that San Diegan’s finally have the ability to get world class headshots without having to go to Los Angeles.

Graham Kirk
Editor, FHM Magazine
“There’s a reason Laurens is the most published photographer in FHM’s history and it’s not because of his his good looks!”
Scott Kritz
Director, Sony Pictures Entertainment
“After years of working with Laurens, he’s definitely become my go-to guy. His creativity, dedication and reliability are the qualities anyone hopes for in a fantastic photographer.”
Ashlan Gorse
Host / Correspondent E! Entertainment Television
“Laurens is flat out amazing. He made me feel so comfortable and really listened to my ideas. I couldn’t have asked for a better photographer and the proof is in the absolutely stunning photos he takes.”
LARRY WINOKUR
Founding Partner: BWR Public Relations
As a founder of BWR, I have worked with Laurens over the span of 15 years, both directly, and through many of our publicists. He has always provided great work in a collaborative and professional manner. He has given us the tools to do even better work. We have great regard for Laurens and would place our most valued clients in his hands.”
JR Futrell
NBC Universal
“I’ve worked with Laurens on a quarter million dollar shoot as he coordinated a staff of 30. It finished on time, and came out unbelievable. It wouldn’t have been as remarkable if it wasn’t that we were on an island, with inclement weather, lost cargo, and talent that fell ill. I don’t know another photographer that could have pulled that off!”
Jason Moscovitz
Radar Pictures
“With A-list stars like Cameron Diaz and Sandra Bullock in our films, there are very few photographers I trust. I need one that gets along with celebrities, and I need great pictures. The first name I think about for photography is always Laurens Antoine. The images are extraordinary, and his handling of the talent exceptional.”
