CORPORATE & TEAM HEADSHOT
PHOTOGRAPHER IN LONDON
HEADSHOTS THAT LOOK LIKE YOUR TEAM
NOT A STOCK PHOTO LIBRARY
Forget the white backdrop, the studio lights and the queue outside a meeting room. I shoot corporate headshots in London in the places that actually make sense for your brand, whether that's your office, your building or the street outside, so your company headshots look like your business instead of everyone else's. And if you need more than headshots, I also offer day in the life corporate photography and event coverage.
WHAT ARE ENVIRONMENTAL CORPORATE HEADSHOTS?
Most corporate headshots follow the same formula. White or grey background, studio lighting, arms crossed, forced smile, done in ninety seconds flat. They all end up looking a bit like a passport photo with better lighting, and nobody looks at them twice.
Environmental headshots do something different. I use your office, your building, your outdoor space or wherever suits your brand as the backdrop, so every photo has a bit of personality and context to it. You still get consistent, professional, on-brand images across the whole team, but they feel like real people doing their real jobs rather than a line-up.
It's the same care and planning I bring to my one-to-one branding shoots, just adapted for teams. This means your staff end up with headshots they're actually happy to use on LinkedIn, your website and your socials, rather than ones they just about tolerate.
YOU'RE IN THE RIGHT PLACE IF YOU WANT CONSISTENT, PROFESSIONAL HEADSHOTS YOUR TEAM WILL ACTUALLY WANT TO USE
CORPORATE PHOTOS THAT DON'T FEEL CORPORATE IN THE BEST POSSIBLE WAY
Most company team pages are a wall of the same white or grey background, artificial lights and the same polite half smile. Which results in nobody remembering a single face. Your photos can do a lot more than that, because the right images make people feel like they already know your team before they've even picked up the phone or wrote the email.
STIFF RELAXED
I guide everyone through the session, so you get natural, friendly photos instead of the arms crossed, chin up, please let this be over look.
IMPERSONAL FULL OF CHARACTER
Real people in your real space, with enough personality in every photo to show clients and future hires what you're actually like to work with.
OUTDATED CURRENT
Fresh images that look like your team today, not the one from five years and two office moves ago.

PHOTOS THAT SET YOU APART FROM EVERY OTHER TEAM PAGE, AND THAT YOUR PEOPLE ACTUALLY LOVE USING
WHY COMPANIES CHOOSE ENVIRONMENTAL OVER STUDIO
Consistency without the conveyor belt
Every headshot is shot with the same light, framing and edit style, so your team page and LinkedIn profiles all match. At the same time, because the setting has personality, nothing feels mass produced.
Kinder to camera-shy colleagues
Every company has a few employees who dread having their photo taken. Because we're not in a stark studio with a queue forming outside the door, people relax faster. That means fewer deer in the headlights shots and more images your team genuinely likes.
It works harder for your employer brand
Recruitment pages, LinkedIn, your website's about page, press features. Headshots with a bit of character behind them say a lot more about your culture than a white wall ever will.
Still quick and efficient
Office headshots shouldn't take over the whole day. Teams are scheduled in short slots, so everyone gets photographed in one session and nobody loses half their day waiting around for their turn.
MORE THAN HEADSHOTS.
OTHER WAYS PHOTOS CAN PROMOTE YOUR BUSINESS
Headshots are usually where it starts. However, once I'm in your office with a camera, it seems a shame not to show people what it's actually like to work with you. That's where corporate photography comes in. Real photos of your team in action give your website, careers page and socials something far more convincing to say than a stock image of two strangers shaking hands.
Day in the life shoots
A relaxed few hours of office photography capturing what a normal day at your company really looks like. Meetings, brainstorms, coffee runs, people at their desks and, if you fancy it, the after work drinks too. It's the easiest way to show clients and future hires the people behind the logo.
Recruitment & careers pages
Candidates want to picture themselves in your team before they hit apply. Genuine photos of your space and your people do that far better than a list of perks and a picture of a bean bag nobody sits on.
Website, LinkedIn & PR
A fresh bank of on-brand images for your about page, company LinkedIn, leadership posts, press releases and pitch decks. Your marketing team will finally stop recycling the same three photos from 2019.
Video & B-roll
Short video clips of your team and your space for social media, recruitment campaigns and your website. These can be planned alongside your photo shoot, so you get photos and video from one well organised visit.
How it works for teams
I'll ask a few questions about your team size, your space and what you need the images for, so I can put together a bespoke quote and a plan that fits around your working day.
I'll scout a few spots around your office or chosen location in advance, so nobody's time is wasted working out where to shoot. Each person gets a short, relaxed slot and I'll guide them through posing and expression, even if they're the type who goes stiff the second a camera points at them. Especially if they're that type.
A few days after the shoot, you'll receive a preselection of images for each team member to choose from. Final edits are delivered within 7 to 10 working days, ready to roll out across LinkedIn, your website and anywhere else you need them.
