Natural Headshots in London

Headshot outdoors in Kensington Gardens London

Whether you need a photograph for work, LinkedIn, your social media accounts or to update your online dating profile photo, I’d be glad to help.

Headshot sessions take around 30 / 45 minutes, and are a fun and relaxed experience.

If you’re looking for something more in-depth, with a variety of locations and looks, check out personal branding photography.

I promise you don’t need to worry about whether you’re photogenic. I’ll help you to feel at ease and I’ll give you some gentle pointers on how to stand and hold yourself for the most flattering photograph.

“Louise is very professional and friendly. She immediately put me at ease for my headshot. Louise understood what was needed and produced good photos.” Lesley

My approach to headshot photography

On location: I can come to your home or workplace, we can go for a walk outside or go to your favourite park. You don’t need to prepare your home at all, all I need is a window! I can bring a pop-up backdrop if you’d like, with a white background.

Studio: we can hire a studio in Brixton, North Kensington or in Angel if you prefer, which costs an additional £140+ depending on location and duration.

Online gallery: You’ll receive a password-protected online gallery with a selection of 20+ photographs to choose from.

More than headshots: If you’re looking for a little more than just one or two headshots, and would like to incorporate more of your business into the photos, you might find branding photography is a better fit for you. Branding photography can also include photographs of you working, your work environment, your products, team photos – creating a bespoke image library for you.

“Louise has a unique talent of making you feel relaxed, and has a great eye for detail and natural light. She’s professional whilst still being fun and very easy to work with. Her work is of a very high quality and I am extremely happy with the photographs.” Mary

Fees: individuals

The session fee and five digital files (which you can select from 20+ in your password-protected online gallery) is £300. Additional images can be purchased for £35 each.

If you’d prefer a studio session, a room hire fee applies (from £140 for a studio, or £50 for a staged home office).

Tips and pointers are provided on what to wear, and how to do your makeup (if you wear it).

The digital files are edited and provided in any formats you might require: colour or B&W; high res or low res; cropped to any size needed for your website.

She sent me the photos very quickly and helped me to pick the best ones. Louise has a great eye for detail and is very conscientious. I would recommend Louise – excellent service.” Nick

Fees: author / writer profile photos

We can either take the photos in your home or workplace, or a location that reflects your book or writing style.

Please note that a licence fee applies to photos that will be printed in books – please contact me to discuss where the photo will be used, and I can send you a detailed quote.

Fees: team photos

We can either take the photos in your office or workplace (we need a room at least 3 x 4m, with 8ft+ high ceilings) or you can come to a studio in Brixton where there’s a lounge area for team members to wait, a kitchen and a changing room.

As a guide, up to 20 team members can be photographed in a half-day, which is £800 (including one edited digital file per team member).

Please contact me to discuss your needs, and I can provide you with a bespoke quote.

“I required corporate headshots for both online profiles and for editorial content, the requirement being that I have some formal and some more relaxed looking shots. Louise took all of this into consideration, keeping it in mind throughout. I’m a little camera shy and needed some encouragement, but Louise made the whole process fun and relaxed. I’d absolutely recommend her to others.” Gerardo

Photos for child model agencies & acting

I’ll work to the brief from your model agency or acting agency, but this typically involves full-length shots as well as head and shoulder shots, with hair up and hair down.

BUSINESS PHOTOGRAPHY: Level up your social media & website photos

Most brands need new marketing images every couple of years, to keep things fresh and exciting.

Having a business photography shoot lets you breathe life into your marketing. Why rely on generic stock images, when you can have bespoke photos of your own business?

If you’re looking for contemporary, natural photos that reflect your business and your personality, I’d love to help!

A business photography shoot is designed to give you enough photos for a week – or a month – of social media posts.

If you schedule in a few sessions each year, I can keep you fully stocked with photos for your online marketing.
