I want to create great portrait, corporate and actor headshots for you
I love to create great portrait and corporate headshots in Cambridgeshire, but I am happy to travel to all surrounding counties. I can work from a location of your choice which could be your home, or a venue special to you. Most of my work is done in a studio, but there are many venues for portraits in Cambridgeshire. Parks, nature reserves and by the rivers all work well in every season. Corporate headshots in Cambridgeshire are usually done on the client’s premises or at meeting and conference centres. Actor headshots in Cambridgeshire can use the same sort of outdoor locations, though the studio produces best results.

Portraits
I feel that portraits are very personal images. A photographic portrait is not just a pretty picture. It has a story to tell about the subject. There is an opportunity for the subject to display at a single point in time the way they are and the way they want to be remembered.

Corporate headshots
A corporate headshot is different because it is intended solely to project an image to a current or potential client. It can be very formal, perhaps a suit, collar and tie. Perhaps an open neck shirt and casual trousers would suit you better? Do you work in the outdoor leisure industry? If so, perhaps a company fleece with jeans and cargo trousers? It’s all about the image you want to project for your business.

Actor headshots
Actor headshots have one single purpose. You need casting directors to take a look and say that you are the person for them and the role that is open. The best advice I can give is to keep it simple and make sure your actor headshots look like you. The casting director will know from your image the canvas he or she has to work with. Use your hair and wardrobe to produce different looking images, but your face is the key to making an impact.
