Beverly Hills Film Festival for @palatecleanserfilm's West Coast Premiere in April when @wippich took maybe my favorite photo of myself ever! I thought it was about time to let this live on the feed.

This year has seen big milestones, big heartbreak, big wins, and big sads. But I can feel the tides turning and the last few months of this year I just know are going to be full of creativity and new adventures and discovery.

And it all starts with receiving TWO offers for roles in films today and heading into my favorite season of the year by heading into my favorite place in the world... the mountains ⛰️🌲 with no phone or internet connection for a whole week. I need this more than I can even express 🥹 taken in Beverly Hills, California by @torilaneross

2026 HEADSHOTS ARE HERE.

The time has finally come. It's been much too long but I Ioved my last batch so much, it was hard to consider new ones.

So, I knew @yellowbellyphoto had to be the way and I was absolutely correct. They NAILED it.

I'll share my last few soon, but these are a selection of my faves.

This actor is ready for hire in LA, Oklahoma, and more. Let's get to work! taken in Los Angeles, California by @torilaneross

2026 HEADSHOTS - PT 2. What kind of roles would you cast me in?

Obsessed with these. Thank you @yellowbellyphoto.

Wearing men's clothes in most of these and my sweetest little period-style corset top in the other. I am everything and I love all parts of me.

Bookings incoming ✨ by @torilaneross

Spent a few days set grabbing some stills for @arhaanhirani new film. You are not ready. This one is special.

Shot on digital and on film so we will start off with some of digital selects from the @canonusa #R5 and #R6

Raise a glass with us to the FINAL festival screening of "Palate Cleanser" — rounding out our incredible run at the 12th Annual Footcandle Film Festival in North Carolina.

WHEN
Friday, Sept. 25th, 2026
7:00 PM
Short Film Showcase (We're in Block 2 at 10pm, but right before — after the 7pm Block 1 — there will be a Q&A where our producer, Charla, will be in attendance.)

WHERE
Hickory Community Theatre
30 Third St NW
Hickory, NC 28601

We've been blown away by the response to our film over the past year. From world premiering in our hometown at @deadcenterfilm, to hitting both coasts in one week to screen in LA AND NYC, it has been beyond humbling to reach audiences nationwide who were touched by the message of our film.

An abundance of very special memories have been made. Now that our festival tour is coming to an end, we will start sharing more reflections of our experiences, all leading up to a public online release so anyone is able to watch it anywhere in the world! More on that to come soon.

We want to thank @footcandlefilm for including us in this year's lineup and helping us celebrate a 15 month run with over a dozen selections and a handful of awards/nominations.

The feature script is beginning to receive its own accolades, and we're ready to bring this full story to life.

Come hungry. Leave horrified.

Folks, we have come full CIRCLE (sorry) as "Palate Cleanser" is having its final Oklahoma festival showing at @circlecinema Film Festival!

We had our first-ever private screening at Circle Cinema back in December 2024 and they were such gracious hosts. The team there have continued to support our local filmmaking community and we couldn’t be more excited to wrap up our OK festival run at our home cinema along with the other beautiful films made in Oklahoma.

Come see our dark comedy thriller film for the last time in Oklahoma theaters!

WHEN

5:00 PM
