I totally get it – no one really loves having their photo taken, do they? Most people come in feeling a bit nervous or even downright uncomfortable. It’s totally natural to feel that way! Having your photo taken can be a vulnerable experience. You’re putting yourself out there, and it can feel a little intimidating. Trust me, I’ve had my fair share of awkward photos too, so I know how it feels.

But here’s the thing: my studio isn’t some big, formal space: it’s small, cosy, and friendly – a home-based studio (with pet cats!) that’s designed to make you feel at ease the moment you walk in. There’s no pressure, no stiff formalities, and certainly no judgement. It’s just you, me, and a relaxed environment where we can take the time to get things right. I want you to feel comfortable, confident, and most importantly, like yourself.

We’ll take it slow, have a bit of a laugh, and chat about what you need from the shoot. I’ve worked with all sorts of people, from nervous first-timers to seasoned pros, and my aim is always the same: to make sure you feel like you’ve had an enjoyable, easy-going experience. Before you know it, you’ll forget the camera’s even there, and we’ll capture some beautiful shots without the stress.

So, if you’re feeling a bit apprehensive, don’t worry – you’re not alone. I’m here to make sure it’s a fun, relaxed process, and by the end of it, you’ll have some brilliant photos that actually make you feel proud. It’s all about taking that first step, and I’ll guide you through it every step of the way.

When it comes to headshots, what you wear can make all the difference, and I’m here to help make sure you feel your best. The goal is to look like you – not a costume, not something you think you should wear, but something that reflects who you really are.

First things first, keep it simple. Solid colours are always a winner. Bright, bold colours can look fantastic, but make sure it complements your complexion. You want your outfit to enhance your features, not overwhelm them. I’d steer clear of crazy patterns, stripes, or anything too flashy that might draw attention away from your face. We’re here for you to shine, not your clothes.

A classic, fitted top is always a good choice. A shirt with a nice neckline can really flatter your face, and it’s generally a safer bet than something with a busy collar or a high-neck that can swallow up your frame. Keep jewellery simple – small studs or a delicate necklace are perfect, but avoid anything too big or flashy. We want the focus on your face, not your accessories!

For actors and performers, think about the role you’re going for. If you’re aiming for a more polished, professional look, you might want to go for something smart, but if you’re after a more casual vibe, just wear something that makes you feel comfortable and confident. The key is for the clothes to reflect the persona you want to project without distracting from your natural expression.

Lastly, bring a few options to the shoot! It’s always helpful to have a couple of tops, maybe one formal and one more casual, so we can see what works best. And don’t forget about grooming – make sure your hair is styled the way you like it and you’re feeling fresh. You want to feel like the best version of yourself, and that’ll come across in the photos.

In short, wear something you feel comfortable and confident in, that flatters your features, and gives off the vibe you want for your headshot. And if you’re ever in doubt, just ask me – we’ll figure it out together!
