Hello and welcome to my website if this is the first time you have found me! I am a business portrait photographer based in Surrey but serving many of the surrounding counties too. I tend to do the business portraits in the garden of my studio but am open to suggestions if you would like to take the headshots in your work environment. The session lasts about 2 hours which includes editing the selection of your favourite headshots. This allows you to be fully in control of the selection of your final portraits.
I had such a great time undertaking the business headshots for this man from Redhill in Surrey. He was looking for some stand out headshots for an exciting new business venture. We did the final edit of these business portraits in colour and black and white as they con create quite a different look.
I had such a lovely 5* review from him after “I really enjoyed the whole experience using Nicola to do my headshots. She was really prompt in responding to my initial enquiry and very flexible in accommodating me at short notice. The actual photography session was really relaxed and good fun. Nicola just kept it very simple and relaxed and I am really happy with the shots. I would highly recommend Nicola.”
It was my pleasure! Thank you for choosing me and I am so pleased you love your portraits as much as I do! If you would like to read more about the business portrait sessions, please do read more here or get in touch to discuss further. I look forward to hearing from you.

Looking for a Business Photographer Guildford?
I don’t think I had ever seen quite such glamorous fabric notice boards as the ones that Harriet from handcrafted by Harriet creates. Her array of styles is gorgeous. Moreover she has a stunning mix of on trend patterns such as pineapples, stars and palm trees. These are cleverly mixed with fabulous colourful neon ribbons to create a feast for the eyes. I had the pleasure of meeting Harriet at a Christmas gift fair back in November.
As soon as I saw her beautiful notice boards I knew I had two little people who would love to receive one on Christmas Day. I ordered a navy board with pale blue ribbon for my son. In addition a cactus board with pink neon ribbon for my daughter. When the big day came they eagerly opened their boards. They were very excited for me to put them up on their bedroom walls on Boxing Day!
I was thrilled when Harriet was looking for a business photographer in Guildford take some headshots. She wanted some pictures that could be used on her website, social media and also to show a bit more about her and the making process. It was great fun to catch up with her, and as you can see she was very easy to photograph.
Five Star Review
After the session Harriet kindly left me this 5* review “I have just done a headshot photoshoot for my business. I make fabric notice boards and I wanted some professional photos taken of me. Plus I wanted to show the person behind the brand and some action shots to bring the making process to life. I am absolutely thrilled with the results and can not recommend Nicola highly enough!! Having never done anything like this before I was really nervous and unsure of what to expect. But the lovely Nicola made me feel so relaxed that I ended up loving it. I came away absolutely buzzing, it was such a fantastic self esteem boost. I can’t wait to have another session in the future. Nicola is incredibly talented and provides exceptional customer service. Thank you!”
Thank you for your kind words Harriet, it was such good fun!
If you’re looking for a Mother’s Day gift do consider buying one of Harriet‘s notice boards. They are totally bespoke and I’m sure any mother would be very excited to receive one of these to display in the house.
If you would like to get in contact with Harriet do check out her website.
If you would like to chat further about capturing you and your business do get in contact. I really enjoy taking headshots for business people, and I’m always happy to chat about capturing you in your workplace. This can be great for getting your customers to know more about you and your business.

I really enjoyed this new year session for a client looking for some new head shots for new business opportunities. We played around with colour and black and white versions in order to meet his exact requirements.
All the pictures were taken in the studio garden which lends itself well to delivering a range of versatile headshots. The session takes about two hours during which time we take around 100 photographs outside. This covers 1 to 3 outfit changes using a variety of backgrounds. We then upload the pictures and look through them on the big screen to choose your favourites which I then edit in front of you.

I really enjoyed helping William.Who was looking for a Guildford head shot photographer to capture him for his modelling portfolio. At well over six foot William is looking to get into modelling clothes for taller people. He photographed really well and with a great variety of head shots. In addition we took full body shots I am sure these will be very well received by any agency.
As with most of my head shot photography sessions these were all taken in the garden of the studio in Cranleigh near Guildford in Surrey. There are some interesting backgrounds and I know just where to catch you at your best. You are welcome to bring a change of clothes if you wish to add variety to your portraits.
Even though it’s been quite chilly lately I’ve still been outdoors helping lots of people get a stand out headshot for all sorts of uses like LinkedIn, social media and dating profiles. It seems the start of the year often spurs people into making a change and updating their pictures!

I really enjoy being a professional headshot photographer Surrey. In terms of location, I tend to do them in my studio garden near Guildford in Surrey. However I am more than happy to travel to your place of work too. Once we are at the studio, we can look through all the shots we take straight away. Likewise, we then select your favourites. I am happy to advise you on a wide choice of portraits to suit different needs. Most people bring a change of clothes to mix up the look of their portraits. Perhaps a more formal one for work, and casual for social media.
Maybe you would like to include some ‘meet the maker’ shots. This is where I take pictures of you doing you job. So if you are producing an end product, the stages you go through. Show the handcrafted element. Or perhaps you are a writer so we will take some at your computer. A personal trainer being active with a client? It all depends on what you do!
It’s always a pleasure to meet interesting men and women. They are looking for some beautiful portraits to use in a variety of ways. I’ve had authors wanting a picture for their book jackets, actors and musicians for auditions. Additionally professionals for interviews and websites and people looking for a gorgeous picture for dating websites!
Next Steps

What a wonderful time I had meeting Mel and her family who had been looking for a Woking headshot photographer. It was so lovely getting to know them. We chatted through the needs of them individually ensuring we got the portraits exactly right for each of them. We did the headshot sessions back to back so took all the pictures over about an hour. This allowed ourselves time for a change of clothes, hair and expressions! We then uploaded them to the big screen and narrowed down their favourites. Which I then edited and retouched in front of them.

Kind Review
I was brought to tears reading Mel’s 5* google review after her session:
“I can’t recommend Nicola highly enough. She took headshots of myself and my partner for our different businesses. Also for my daughter who is a budding actress. Nicola is extremely talented and I can guarantee she will take photos that you will love. More importantly she is warm and very engaging. This means she will quickly put you at ease, no matter how much you worry about having your photo taken. I hate my photo being taken and am convinced I never take a ‘good’ photo. So Nicola achieved the impossible by taking photos I really like. Also none of the headshots look like many of the other corporate headshots you see out there. Who knew a garden shed and a front gate could make such wonderful backdrops! I have no hesitation in recommending Nicola because we will be going back.”
Thanks you so much Mel! It honestly means the absolute world to me to read reviews like this. I get so emotional! It’s wonderful to hear that Clients have had plenty of fun during their session. Additionally that you also felt comfortable and relaxed. Most importantly went away with headshots that they are proud to use!

Are you looking for a headshot photographer Godalming? Hopefully this post will give you a better understanding of the headshot services that I offer in Godalming and other surrounding towns across Surrey.
Nick approached me last week about the possibility of having some headshots taken. Nick had been looking around and had narrowed it down to either me or a more local press photographer to take his headshots. I appreciated his honest approach. We had an open conversation about how best for him to choose the photographer who suited him most.
I advised him to firstly look at each of our websites. For instance which of the portfolios matched more closely with what he was looking to achieve in his session. Subsequently I advised him to look at how each session would run in terms of timings. To also consider the location and viewing of the images to see which suited him best. Then of course I acknowledged there may be a price difference. This could affect his choice of course. However to remember you generally get what you are paying for with photography. Just as you do when choosing where to shop for clothes, your restaurant choice or how you travel from A to B! I am pleased to say that having thought through his options, Nick called back to book his session!
We had a great morning together working out the best backgrounds to use for his headshots. Then advising on what to wear to ensure we had a set of portraits that could be used across a number of channels.
Google Review
After his session Nick gave me a five star review on Google “Incredibly welcoming and professional. So pleased with the photos. Can’t recommend highly enough.”
Thanks Nick, I really enjoyed meeting you and I am so pleased you love your headshots. Great to see them already in use on LinkedIn!

I was very pleased to be chosen as the Godalming headshot photographer for Katarina who was looking for a professional headshot for business purposes. The session usually runs in the garden of the home studio. It lasts for approximately 90 minutes and allows a clothes change if you wish. Subsequently we have a variery of different headshots that can be used across a number of mediums. It’s a very relaxed and enjoyable experience, enabling you to be photographed in a friendly environment.
Some people express anxiety about getting their picture taken. Most importantly, please don’t be worried! Many people are self conscious and a bit nervous. But after a few minutes, clients start to relax and enjoy themselves. Moreover often they want to keep on taking more after I think we have plenty! People get in to the swing of it. They are also so pleasantly surprised to see such gorgeous pictures of themselves. I hear clients so excited that they like their pictures for the first time!
Kind review
Following the session with Katerina she kindly gave me a 5* review on google. “Very pleased with the images. Thank you for being so skillful and helpful!”
My pleasure Katerina, thank you very much for entrusting me to take your headshot’s. It really was so lovely to meet you. I really enjoyed our time together and I’m so pleased you love your headshot as much as I do.

Godalming Headshot Photographer // Family Photographer Surrey
What a pleasure it was to be the Surrey business headshot photographer for this fabulous business woman. I had photographed her once before with her family in the summer. I am chuffed to say she was so pleased with the results, that she booked me in to take some headshots. The head shots were for her profile picture at work and across social media. As with most head shot sessions, we took the pictures in the studio garden. This provides us with a variety of interesting and casual backdrops. Furthermore it also allowed my Client to have a clothes change into her work t-shirt! It is great to mix it up with clothing. You can create so many different looks during your headshot session.
At the start of every session I take time getting to know you, including your vision for the headshots and how you wish to use them. We then work together choosing the backdrops, getting the most flattering pose and perfect expression for the purpose. Once we’ve taken the pictures, we look through all of them together and I help you choose your favourites. Three digital files are included in the price (£150) but you are welcome to choose additional (as was the case in this session) for £35 each.
If you wish to read more about headshots sessions, see examples of past headshot sessions follow the links, or contact me for more information. Many thanks.
