everyone needs a great headshot

Horsham based studio

Everyone should have a cracking headshot. And I mean everyone – not just celebrities and models.

First off, let’s face it: in today’s world, everyone’s online. Whether it’s for your LinkedIn profile, a social media account, or even just a casual Zoom call, people are going to see you somewhere on the web. A good headshot is like your personal stamp – it’s the first impression you’ll give to the world.

Now, some people might think, “Oh, I’m not a model, why would I need a professional headshot?” Well, here’s the thing: it’s not about looking like you just walked off a runway. It’s about looking approachable, confident, and just a bit polished. A decent headshot shows you’ve put in the effort and that you’re serious about whatever you’re doing. It says, “I’m here to take things seriously, but I’m friendly enough for a chat!”

And let’s not forget, it’s a bit of a trust builder. A blurry selfie or a random photo from last summer isn’t exactly going to inspire confidence, is it? But a sharp, clean headshot? That’s professional, and it shows you care about the details.

Lastly, remember, it doesn’t take much to get one sorted. It doesn’t have to break the bank, and it doesn’t have to be a big, stressful ordeal. A proper headshot can be quick, easy, and make all the difference in how you're perceived. Whether it’s for business or just to seem a bit more put-together online, a good headshot is basically an investment in your own personal brand.





    About me

    Claire Ward-DuttonWell, let me tell you a bit about myself. I’ve been in the photography game for over 30 years now, and in that time, I’ve had the pleasure of working with all sorts of wonderful people. From actors and performers to business professionals and families, I’ve seen it all. But what I really love is getting to know my clients and making sure they feel comfortable in front of the camera. I know it can feel a bit awkward at first – we’ve all been there – but that’s where I come in. My job is to put you at ease, so you can relax and let your natural self shine through. A good headshot or portrait is about capturing your essence, and that only happens when you feel confident and comfortable.

    What some people might not know about me is that I was a professionally trained dancer. That background gives me a special understanding of the performing arts world. I get what it’s like to be in front of the camera and how important it is to convey emotion and presence in a single shot. Whether it’s a headshot for an actor or a promotional photo for a dancer or musician, I know exactly what’s needed to make you look your best while still staying true to who you are as a performer.

    I’ve worked with so many creatives over the years, and it’s always a joy to see their personalities come through in their photos. Whether you’re looking for something simple and professional, or a more artistic, expressive shot, I’ve got the experience and the eye to make it happen. I can offer advice that goes beyond just taking a good picture – I know what works for your headshot in the context of your specific craft.

    At the end of the day, I want you to leave my studio feeling great about your photos and yourself. A relaxed atmosphere, a little chat, and some good energy – that’s the formula for creating something special.
