Photographer putting you on tape for an acting agent?

I'm not sure what you mean. There are some companies who produce showreels, which are compilations made up from clips of film work you've done. That's what agents like to see - but it has to be professionally-made footage, not some home-made stuff.
And the agent would still expect to see a fantastic resume, packed with stage plays and films you've taken leading roles in, and several years of training at a good drama school.
