Corporate portraits and business headshots

We photograph corporate portraits and business headshots for organisations across Hampshire, Surrey and London. The work is planned for its specific context, from consistent leadership and team profiles to environmental portraits for editorial use.

Background, framing and the treatment of light contribute to how a person is represented. We establish a direction that suits the organisation and the individual, then plan the session around the number of people, locations and required photographs.

A consistent set of team photographs

When portraits sit together on a team page, the relationship between them matters. Background, framing and the overall treatment should feel considered across the set.

If you are adding people to an existing collection, send examples of the current photographs. We can discuss what needs to be matched and whether the new shoot should follow the same direction or form the start of a wider update.

For a new set, share your website or brand guidance and explain how the pictures will be displayed. A small profile image and a larger editorial portrait may need different framing.

Portraits in the workplace

A workplace portrait gives more context about a person and their role. The surroundings can be part of the story, whether that is an office, workshop, studio or another working space.

The setting still needs to be considered carefully. We should know which areas are available, whether work will continue around the shoot and what should be kept out of view. Confidential material, computer screens and personal information should be checked before photography begins.

Planning a team session

Send the approximate number of people and their availability. If everyone needs a portrait, a simple appointment schedule can help keep the session organised and reduce time away from their work.

Allow time for the setup and any changes in background or location. If some people also need individual environmental portraits or group photographs, list those separately. They may need more time than a repeatable headshot setup.

A contact who knows the team can help with names, attendance and any changes during the day.

Preparing for your portrait

Choose clothes that fit the context in which the picture will be used and that you feel comfortable wearing. If the business has a particular dress expectation, share it with the team ahead of time.

Bring any concerns or reference images to the planning conversation. Nobody needs to arrive knowing how to pose. We can work through posture, expression and framing during the session. A workable appointment schedule gives each person time to settle into the photograph.

More than individual headshots

You may also need photographs of people working together, details of the workplace or wider team views. These can sit alongside portraits in recruitment materials, company profiles or a website refresh.

What about people who join later?

If the business expects to add portraits over time, discuss that when planning the first session. A clear reference for background, framing and overall treatment can make future conversations easier. Keep a record of the intended uses and examples you want the new pictures to sit beside. For later joiners, those references help us assess how closely a new session can match the existing collection.

Tell us the location, number of people, preferred dates and the style of photographs you need. Include the intended uses, any existing pictures to match and your delivery deadline.

If you need both team portraits and other commercial photography, include the full list so the time can be planned properly. Send an enquiry or email your brief.
