The secret to a great actor's headshot? It isn't k The secret to a great actor's headshot? It isn't knowing how to pose. It's feeling relaxed, confident and able to be yourself. That's what I aim to create in every session. 🤍

If you're looking for actor headshots in Surrey that feel natural and capture your unique personality, I'd love to help.
You're brilliant at what you do… but explaining wh You're brilliant at what you do… but explaining why someone should choose you? That can be the hardest part.

When you first start your business, professional p When you first start your business, professional photography can feel like a luxury.

I completely understand that. There are so many other things demanding your attention and budget.

But, even as someone who would much rather be behind the camera, I’ve seen first-hand how much more engagement and connection my posts receive when I include a photo of myself.

People like to know the person behind the business. And trust often starts long before someone makes an enquiry.

I’m a headshot a branding photographer based in Surrey and I’d love to help your future clients start to know, like and trust you.

Because that's the thing, isn't it? When people fall in love with a small creative business, they're often falling in love with the maker too.

If you're a creative business owner in Surrey and you've been thinking about updating your brand photos, I'd love to hear from you. ❤️

Did you know I also offer acting headshots in Surr Did you know I also offer acting headshots in Surrey?

A few weeks ago, a lovely young actor came to see me with her mum, after signing with an acting agency. She needed a selection of natural headshots with a plain background and a variety of expressions for her portfolio.

Before we even picked up the camera, we spent some time chatting and helping her feel relaxed. There’s nothing worse than being told to smile on demand and hoping it looks natural.

The best expressions usually happen once people stop thinking so much about the camera.

She did such a brilliant job, and I’m so excited for her to start using her new images.
