I love to capture that special quality, the essence and the character of a person or people on a photo shoot. It requires me find out a little about your profession and interests and to also have a rapport with you. The expression on your face, or the look in your eye can make or break a photograph. Everyone including you will have something good about you that can be used to enhance your portrait.

If you are apprehensive about having your photographs taken then you are like many other people. Don’t worry. I am very approachable and I will guide you through the process to help you feel relaxed. I will advise you on what to wear and how to pose, to ensure that you get the types of images that your require.

1. Portrait and Lifestyle Photography

A portrait photo shoot is a wonderful opportunity for you to get some stunning photos of you as a reminder of how you look today. It’s something tangible to show your grandchildren in the future. A family photo shoot is also a great opportunity to get images of the ones you love.

The location is extremely important as this determines the look and feel of the images. Clothing is equally important. Portraits look best when the subject wears simple plain clothing. Couple and group shots work best with co-ordinating outfits in matching colours. For further advice, please see my useful portrait tips on clothing and poses plus my portrait frequently asked questions page. If you like to wear vintage clothing there are lots of places in Norfolk to capture some vintage portraits.   

My portrait photography service includes lifestyle photography sessions. Lifestyle photography captures the essence of a family. Just imagine having photographs of your daughter enjoying sunny days on the beach or your son skimming pebbles in the sea.

Images can be captured in my studio, your home environment such as a summer house or out in the countryside walking, cycling, kite flying or enjoying a picnic on the beach. Choose an activity and location that takes your fancy. If you cannot think of a location I know a great variety of places that make excellent backdrops for portrait photography.

I can also provide you with black and white or other creative images.   

2. Head Shots and Model Portfolios

If you are interested in getting some head shots see my 9 tips for business head shots and advice for actress head shots.

If you would like to get or add to your model portfolio Norfolk is a fantastic county for this. There are many different types of landscapes including rivers and Broads, woodland, ruins and beautiful sandy beaches. Norwich is a great City to get some urban shots. All of these places provide interesting and varied backdrops within a few miles of each other. The facilities to get different backdrops will greatly improve your model portfolio.

3. Makeovers

If you require a makeover (hair and makeup) before your photo shoot I can organise this for you.
