ABOUT WILLIAM WILDER, VERMONT PORTRAIT AND HEADSHOT PHOTOGRAPHER

Hey, I'm William.  I got into the photography obsession - I mean business - through acting. As a NYC based professional actor for 10+ years, I was always fascinated by actor headshots. So I started taking them for my friends, and pretty soon I was more of a photographer than an actor (though I do still act from time to time). 

In 2023, I moved back home to Vermont and expanded my business to include not only headshots, but portraits of seniors, couples, families, dogs, anything with a face, really. 

When I'm not clicking a button, I'm either outside exploring, or on stage somewhere being a goofball in a costume. 


ABOUT MY PROCESS

I shoot digitally, but develop my images using authentic vintage film stocks, primarily Kodak Portra 400, Fuji Pro 160ns, and various Autochrome and Kodachrome stocks. This allows me to blend the freedom and flexibility of the digital format with the more complex, rich colors and nostalgic feel of vintage film photography.
