From Behind the Camera to Inspiring Performance: What Brad Everett Young Teaches Aspiring Actors in Glasgow

In a world where image is everything, Brad Everett Young has mastered the art of capturing the essence of actors through his lens. Known for his vibrant, expressive celebrity portraits and his campaign “Dream Loud,” Young isn’t just a photographer — he’s a storyteller.

And if you're an aspiring actor in Glasgow, there's a surprising amount you can learn from his approach to portraiture — especially if you want to be the kind of actor who radiates presence, truth, and impact both on screen and off.

Acting Is More Than Performance — It’s Presence

Brad Everett Young’s photography stands out because his portraits feel alive. The same is true of great acting.

Whether he's shooting rising stars or established Hollywood names, Young’s portraits reveal:

🎭 Confidence — Not arrogance, but clarity in who you are
🎬 Authenticity — A photo (like a scene) only works when it feels real
📸 Expression — Knowing how to show emotion subtly and honestly

These qualities are exactly what we train at Southside Performance Studio in Glasgow.
