A good headshot looks like you on a good day — not a stiff corporate stock photo. We work fast, give you proper direction, and edit only as much as is needed to keep skin and colour looking natural.

Team headshot days are our most-booked option: we'll come to your office, set up a clean backdrop and lighting, and shoot the whole team in a single visit with a consistent look across everyone.

A headshot built for where it will be used

Before choosing a background or expression, it helps to decide where the finished portrait needs to work. A LinkedIn profile photograph has to remain clear when it appears very small. A company website may need more room around the sitter so a designer can place text beside the image. A press portrait may call for a wider frame, while an email signature usually needs a simple crop that still reads well on a phone. Sharing those uses before the session makes the shoot more focused and helps avoid forcing one photograph into every format later.

Individuals can bring a second jacket, shirt or top if they want a choice between formal and relaxed versions. Plain clothes are often easier to use across different platforms, but the right choice is the one that reflects how you normally meet clients or colleagues. If the portrait is for a particular employer, professional body or casting purpose, bring any existing guidance so the framing and clothing can be considered before the camera comes out.

Planning a consistent team headshot day

Consistency matters more than making every person hold exactly the same pose. The useful constants are the background, lighting direction, camera height and crop. Within that setup, each sitter can still stand or sit in a way that feels natural. This gives a company a team page that belongs together without making the people on it look interchangeable.

A simple running order keeps an office session efficient. List everyone who needs to be photographed, allow for people who are in meetings or working off site, and nominate one contact who can keep the next sitter ready. It is also worth checking whether new starters, remote colleagues or senior staff need to be included while the setup is available. For teams of five or more, discounted rates are available, and the portable setup can be brought to an office within Merseyside.

The shooting area does not need to be the most attractive room in the building. What matters is having a clear space for the background and lighting, plus enough room for the sitter to step away from the backdrop. A meeting room or other quiet area is usually more practical than a busy reception. If the office itself is part of the story, an environmental portrait can instead include the workspace while still keeping attention on the person.

Direction without the awkward posing

Most people arriving for a headshot are not used to being photographed, and they should not need to know how to pose. Clear direction covers small changes in stance, shoulder angle and eye line, while conversation keeps expressions from becoming fixed. Multiple looks or backdrops can be covered during the sitting, giving the final selection a useful range rather than a sequence of nearly identical frames.

It can help to think about the impression the photograph needs to make rather than trying to perform for the camera. Someone meeting clients may want an open, approachable portrait. A speaker, founder or consultant may need something with more presence for event programmes and press use. Those are choices to discuss at the start, not labels imposed afterwards. The aim is a recognisable portrait that feels appropriate for the work you actually do.

Selecting and preparing the final photographs

Retouching is kept natural. The purpose is to tidy temporary distractions and keep colour and skin tones consistent, not to change somebody's face. Final selects are prepared for their intended use, including square crops suitable for LinkedIn. If a business is replacing an older team gallery, agreeing one crop before the session helps every new portrait sit neatly alongside the rest of the website.

Retouched final selects are delivered within 48 hours. Before booking, send the number of people, the preferred location, examples of the current team imagery and a note of the formats you need. That is enough to decide whether a neutral backdrop, a branded setting or a mix of both is the most useful approach for the session.
