As a London portrait photographer, I am lucky enough to spend my working life photographing lots of fascinating people. As well as all the family photoshoots I do, I also offer headshot and personal branding photography. It\u2019s so important in this digital age to have a set of striking profile pictures that will help you and your business stand out from the crowd. Images that you can use on your website, as well as all your social media platforms.<\/p>\n

I really enjoy being with people and bring out the best in everyone I meet with unique images. And I make sure every session I do is fun and enjoyable. I photograph using natural light and use London as the backdrop to your photos. Having always lived in London I\u2019m happy to advise you on the best location for your portrait photography session.<\/p>\n

London Portrait Photographer in the park<\/h2>\n

The lovely lady in the photo below is a wonderful pianist and composer. She booked one of my musicians photography sessions, as she needed a range of images to use for upcoming concerts and programmes. We started the portrait photoshoot in a church, where I photographed her playing the piano absolutely beautifully. Then we made our way to a nearby park for some outdoor shots without piano.<\/p>\n

In the park was a lovely little building with arched windows. I took some photos of her outside the building first and then asked her to stand inside. The low sunlight was stunning as it fell on her face, casting long shadows behind her. I was so happy with this portrait of her gazing into the distance, with the arched window behind her and the mysterious figure to the right of the image.<\/p>\n

At the end of our portrait photography session there were so many fantastic images for her to use going forward in her\u00a0music career. But this one in the sunlight has to be one of my favourites.<\/p>\n

If you need some new profile pictures for your musical life or business please do get in touch. I\u2019d love to find the perfect location for your headshot photography session. Details on how I work can be found here London Headshot\u00a0Photographer<\/a>
