Professional Portrait Photographer Somerset

Somerset Portrait Photographer

As a professional portrait photographer in Somerset, I work with businesses of all sizes across the county to provide portrait and editorial photography, from magazine and catalogue photoshoots to model headshots. I live in the beautiful South West and regularly travel throughout the UK working on portrait shoots.

I specialise in studio photography using professional lighting and equipment to create high-quality editorial and fashion photography, but also regularly work with clients in outdoor environmental settings to create a beautiful backdrop.

Portable Studio for Ease

If studio shots are what you are after, I can set my portable studio and professional lighting in your place of business for ease. Or you can visit my studio, as pictured, for a portrait and editorial photography session.

Outdoor Portrait Photography

I am fortunate to live in the South West, with the beautiful Somerset countryside and coastline right on my doorstep, giving a plethora of natural scenery as backdrops for your photoshoot. Whether it’s the Somerset Levels, the Quantocks, your favourite local beauty spot or a beautiful Somerset beach, I’m happy to find the perfect location for your shoot.

Frequently Asked Questions About Portrait Photography

  • I use full-frame professional cameras and have two cameras with me at all times. I use a range of professional lenses, along with a variety of professional lighting and studio equipment to capture the perfect high-quality images for your business or portfolio.

  • I will provide your photos via a downloadable online album, for which I will email you the link. If required, I can provide a USB stick containing the files, at extra cost. If you require physical prints, I am happy to discuss this further.

  • Images will be edited and delivered to you within 7 days of your photoshoot. I am able to provide images within 24 hours, or on the same day, for an additional cost, if required.

  • It really depends on your needs and the project brief. Sometimes, it's possible to get the perfect shots really quickly. Whereas, other times it requires a little more persistence to get shots you're satisfied with. We'll discuss your needs before and during the portrait shoot to ensure we hit the nail on the head and deliver photographs you love.

  • In order to capture shots you're happy with, it's important you wear something you're comfortable in for your portrait photoshoot. Of course, your clothing depends largely on the brief and your requirements. At the end of the day, this is your portrait shoot, so it's entirely up to you, or your stylist, what you choose to wear.
