Relaxed professional profile head shots

I always like meeting new people and taking informal professional profile head shots for them and hearing their stories about who they are and how they got to be where they’re going.

In this case Ben is a Brighton based ghost writer, author and writing coach specialising in self help and wellness books.

He contacted me and we had a chat about what he’s looking for and said that “One of things I love about the work on your site is that they can be used for formal purposes but they are anything but stuffy/uptight, you capture the  warmth and humanity of your subjects.”

I always like to hear how people see my portraits / head shots and work with them to get what they are looking for and i’m pretty pleased with the results from this shoot.

Relaxed and informal company profile head shots

There are lots of different ways to capture staff at a company for the About Us page and recently i’ve been working on getting something a bit more informal than a studio set up with a backdrop or a plain wall in the background.

I’ve found that the key to getting good informal photos is to make sure that people are relaxed and having fun in front of the camera and that comes from experience of shooting businesses and people.

So here are some relaxed and informal headshots / profiles from a recent shoot at a law firm and I think they work really well in saying that the company and staff are approachable, relaxed and friendly.
