Professional Headshots

Are you looking for a headshot photographer Woking? I would be delighted to help you. For example I cover much of Surrey including towns like Woking, Guildford, Godalming, Dorking, Reigate and beyond.

My clients are looking for a headshot photographer for all sorts of different reasons. Quite often it is for a new headshot for job opportunities that have arisen. Alternatively it may also be for acting, for which I have done many sessions for both adults and children. Daters also come to me quite a bit looking for a few stand out shots for their profiles. I’ve even covered a wedding from somebody who met their partner online after they had pictures taken by me! Whatever your needs are, I would be happy to help. In addition I can also arrange for a make up artist to join us too.

I had a great morning with this lovely man who was looking for a selection of professional headshots that could be used on his new website. As you can see we took a variety of shots using different clothes and backgrounds to mix up the look.

I was delighted to receive an email from him after his session with these kind words.”It was lovely meeting you.  Thank you for the photos.  For once I look quite ‘natural’!”

Thank you very much, it really was my pleasure. I thoroughly enjoyed meeting you and I think your pictures will do just the job.

Next Steps 

Do get in touch if you would like to talk further if you are looking for a headshot photographer. Or perhaps you would like to see more information on my head headshot page or headshot galleries. There are many examples of the sessions I’ve done in the past.

Headshot Photographer Woking // Family Photographer Surrey

I enjoyed this Cobham headshot photography session late last summer. This lovely lady has a very busy life. She is a nutritionists, a running coach and is part way through studying to be a Personal Trainer.
So the brief for this Cobham headshot photography session was not only achieving some professional headshots but also getting some ‘action’ photos. These will showcase the different aspects of her work portfolio for use now and in the long term.

If you are looking for some professional headshots you may wish to see my headshot photography information page or my galleries. This will give you a flavour of my style and include more information. Headshot photography sessions start at £150 for three digital files. The sessions last about two hours which includes the shooting time, the viewing of the pictures, selection and editing. The images are then ready for your use on websites, social media, or however you wish.

Maybe you would just like to chat through options, so I would be delighted if you want to send me a message or chat on the phone.

During the current Covid-19 restrictions I can’t do headshot sessions at the studio or your place of work or home. So I’m taking bookings for mid June onwards with the understanding we can re-look at dates and restrictions nearer the time.

I do hope you’re all keeping well in these extraordinary times. Hopefully you might be reading this once everything has calmed down! I’m enjoying catching up on my blog writing during the last couple of weeks. It often gets pushed to the bottom of my list because I’m so busy shooting and editing. It’s quite fun looking back on some of last year’s shoots and sharing them.

Business Headshots

This lovely lady was looking for some updated headshots for her business profile. If you’re based in Dorking I’m happy to come to you. Or you may wish to visit me in the Cranleigh studio to take the headshots in the garden. This tends to make it easier as we can take the pictures and then straight away we can see them on the big screen to choose your favourites.

However if you’ve got your own business you may wish to have them at your place of work. This can show more of your personality and an insight into what you do like your products or services. I cover most areas in Surrey so I’m happy to talk through location options with you.

Before you come in you’ll want to consider what to wear. If your business is quite formal I suggest bringing some more formal work attire and perhaps a casual option too. If you’re using the shots for social media, acting or dating you might want to consider more casual options. I would suggest getting together with a friend for a morning to ask them what they think looks good on you if you’re not quite sure!

If you would like to have your hair done before I’m happy to make a late morning appointment so that you’ve got time to do that first. I also have a fantastic lady Lydia Allen who I can recommend for make up. She comes to my house so it’s all done in one place so nice and easy.

Teenage Headshots in Surrey

Do you have a teenager who is looking to get some headshots done? Maybe for acting, dance, social media or other job opportunities? Throughout the year I do lots of teenage headshots in Surrey most of which take place in the studio garden near Guildford in Surrey. Although I’m happy to look at other locations if you prefer.

A lot of the teenagers have quite a clear vision of what they’re looking for (although they don’t have  to at all!) I work with them to get it just right for them both in the preplanning of the session and on the day. Depending on what they are going to use the headshots for, we discuss what they’re going to wear which often involves a couple of changes. This is great for mixing up their look from casual to smart. We also use a variety of different backgrounds to change the mood of the pictures.

Each session is different so I like to work with the teenager to make sure I can meet their needs, make it really fun and above all come away with some fantastic headshots.

I had a lovely email from this gorgeous girl’s mum after her session. “I just wanted to say thank you so much for yesterday! Romy is over the moon with her new headshots! We absolutely love them!” It was my pleasure. I’m so glad that you love them. It really was such fun and I wish Romy all the best in the future using her beautiful pictures.

If you have a teenager who is looking for some headshots, you may wish to look at my headshot information page. Or contact me to discuss further. I look forward to hearing from you.

Children’s Acting Headshots Surrey

Are you looking for some headshot photography Godalming or surrounding towns like Guildford or Woking? I cover all of Surrey and further afield.

I really enjoyed capturing this lovely lady who has recently trained as a therapist. She is currently designing her website to attract new clients. She understood the need to have some professional headshot photography to help create the right impression for those landing on her site for the first time.

We worked together to get a number of headshot portraits to use across not only her website, but also across her social media which includes LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram and Twitter. She had a couple of clothes changes to mix up her look. It’s always a good idea to bring a few outfits to create variety. In the same way are use different backgrounds because the light can change so much and create a different atmosphere or mood for your headshot photography.

Some of these portraits were taken inside, but the majority were taken outside in the studio garden. The shooting part of the session takes about 30 minutes. Then we load all of the images onto the computer to view them on the big screen. This allows us to select the very best portraits for you which I then edit in front of you, so that by the end of the session you have your digital files ready to use.

Google Review

I had a lovely  5* review on google from this kind lady after her session. “I had a relaxed photo shoot with Nicola. She quickly assessed what I was looking for and went above and beyond to meet my expectations. Really pleased with the photos. Thank you!”

It was my pleasure! I really enjoyed meeting you. Best of luck with you new career path.

LinkedIn headshots Surrey

Are you looking to apply for new jobs? Or using LinkedIn to network? Having a really stand out headshot for your LinkedIn profile means that those viewing several profiles within a short space of time are more likely to remember yours. An eye-catching professional headshot gives that all important first impression.

When you first get in touch, I like to chat to you about exactly where you will be using the headshots. Each of the social media platforms requires a slightly different look. So we work together to create the perfect image for you.

The process

On the day you’re welcome to bring a change of clothes. This helps to create a different look for your shots and add some versatility. We work together on different expressions because you might find that you’re trying to create a variety of impressions. We take the pictures mostly in the garden of the studio as it has some interesting backgrounds and beautiful light. But we can do some more traditional plainer backgrounds if you prefer. The shooting element of the morning takes about 30 minutes, during which I’ll keep showing you pictures on the back of the camera so that you can make sure we’re on track with achieving your requirements. After the shoot we load all of the images up onto the big screen and go through them together to choose your final three digital files that I will edit in front of you.

The package costs £150. If you wish to buy additional files to the three that are included, they are £35 each.

If you would like to see further examples of headshots, please see my information page. Or contact me here. I look forward to hearing from you.

It was lovely to meet this lady who was looking for a headshot photographer Dorking to capture her for business purposes. Understandably most people aren’t quite sure what to expect if they have never had a professional photography session before. So I think it’s important to talk you through how it all works before you arrive so you can be best prepared. This includes clothing choices of course. This beautiful lady sought the assistance of a friend to narrow down her final outfit choices. You are welcome to have a change of clothing, it’s fun to mix it up a bit and add variety. I also like to look at different backdrops that will suit your clothing. It all adds up to creating a standout portrait especially for you.

My client said after this session “Thank you for a lovely morning. I did not expect to enjoy it as much as I did!” 

That’s what I like to hear! It really was my pleasure.

I was so happy to read her 5* review on google: ‘I had the most wonderful couple of hours and loved every minute of it! Like most people, I am not fond of being photographed but Nicola made me feel at ease from the start. Thank you for the excellent, professional photos.”

If you would like to read more about my headshot sessions, follow the link, or contact me to discuss further. If you are looking for a headshot photographer Dorking, I’d be delighted to chat through what you’re looking for and how I can best suit your needs.

Headshot Photographer Haslemere Surrey

Gosh aren’t the months flying by this year! Suddenly it’s July and the children are breaking up and we are busy planning what to do in the summer holidays. It will be a mixture of working and fun with the children. Which can seem rather chaotic at times, but now that the children are 10 and 8 it certainly gets easier!

Before we broke up I was delighted to be able to help this lovely lady who was looking for some updated headshots for business purposes. What a really delightful time we had together. After chatting about her needs, we talked about her line of business. Then we talked about how best to express her personality through the headshots.

It took around two hours in all to take the pictures, view them to narrow down to her favourites, then edit them in front of her.

Kind review

I was so happy to read her 5* google review. “Nicola made me feel comfortable straight away and throughout the shoot. I really appreciate that she took so many shots and helped me narrow down the options. I couldn’t be happier with the final headshots. Thanks Nicola!” 

My pleasure, I really enjoyed our session. If you are looking for a headshot photographer Haslemere do get in touch to discuss your needs. If you’d like to see other examples of headshots see this page. Alternatively contact me to discuss exactly what you’re looking for.

I really enjoyed meeting this professional business lady. She who was looking for a Haslemere headshot photographer to capture her for her business. Like most people who approach me for headshots, there was a certain amount of nervous anticipation. However I always try to put you at your ease by talking you through the process on the phone. This helps to answer any questions you might have. For example this might include what to wear, what to bring and how long the session will take. You are so welcome to ask as many questions as you like. Above all we want to be prepared and relaxed on the day of your headshot session.

I was pleased to hear from this lady after her session to say she. ‘Enjoyed it a lot more than I thought I would!’ Which is of course the perfect outcome!

5* google review

I was also thrilled to read a 5* review she left for me on google reviews. ‘Having avoided the camera for years I really was not looking forward to the session. However, Nicola was lovely, put me at my ease. The resultant head shots were great and just what I needed. The whole experience was easy and relaxed.’

Thanks you so much, it was my pleasure!

If you are looking for a Haslemere headshot photographer or other areas in Surrey, I would love to hear from you. I tend to do the headshots in the garden of my studio but am happy to travel to your home or work place if you prefer. Some people like to incorporate headshots with a ‘behind the brand’ story session to include some shots of you at work rather like these examples of a local framer and a holistic practitioner.
