Every company has its own rhythm, expectations and logistical hurdles. My role is to make professional headshots, not only painless but genuinely enjoyable for those involved. I know that some people find it hard and hand-hold where needed. I love my work and get a buzz very time someone says, "Wow, that's much better than I was expecting", it happens a lot.
Here’s a sample of my clients
From Fortune Global 500 firms to dynamic startups, I create professional portraits that capture people at their best, discreetly and efficiently, wherever your teams are based.

Reducing organising time to almost "0"
I've shot so many large headshot shoots. I know that scheduling across a company can be a logistical challenge. At the request of a FTSE100 client - to save them time, I worked with a coder to develop a system designed to minimise admin and maximise efficiency. I call it SmartShoot.logistics and if you have multiple people for me to shoot, you'll love it as it does almost all the organising for you!
