As part of my new photographic offering for 2021, I am now available for classic headshots and portraits, not just for adults, but for children, teenagers and young adults in my studio in Teddington.

These can be first professional headshots to help launch a new enterprise or career, actor headshots for Spotlight or other acting agencies, headshots for modelling agencies, or simply for parents to have of their children before they fly the nest.

Bel’s mum got in touch for portraits for her budding young actor daughter who is passionate about following a career in acting and performance.

We had a lovely creative and collaborative hour or so shooting these in the studio and making the selections afterwards together before I then carried out the final stage of the process adding some post-production magic in digital post-production.

I’ve included some of the images here in both colour and black and white - each final image and version is individually edited, processed and perfected before delivery.

If you are thinking about some portraits of your teenager, I’d love to hear from you. The session usually lasts for about an hour with some time afterwards to make selections or this can be done online later.

Several outfits, props or things they would like to be photographed with are welcomed, and I’m not too bad at a bit of styling and a dab of cover-up or makeup if it’s really needed! I’m there to ‘hold their hand, advise and make it fun, relaxing and confidence-building.
