Business Portrait Photography: Creating Images That Look Like You

I photographed Charlotte for a collection of business portraits she could use across her website and social media.

She didn’t just need one headshot. She needed a range of photographs that showed the person behind her businesses.

That meant creating different portraits, changing clothing, backgrounds and compositions, while keeping everything recognisably Charlotte.

More than just a headshot

A good business portrait needs to look professional, but it also needs to look like you.

That’s why I guide people throughout a session rather than simply putting them in front of the camera and asking them to smile.

We work with positioning, expression, lighting and different environments to create photographs that feel natural.

Charlotte was able to see what we were creating as we worked, which meant she could be involved in the process too.

One session. Multiple uses.

The finished collection gave Charlotte photographs she could use across her website, LinkedIn, social media and other marketing.

That’s particularly useful for business owners who need more than one profile photograph. Instead of repeatedly searching for something suitable to post, you have a library of professional images ready to use.

And, several years later, I still like these photographs because they look like Charlotte.

That matters more to me than following whatever photographic trend happens to be fashionable.

If you need new business portraits or a collection of personal branding images, you can see my business portrait and personal branding photography here.

Business Headshot Photography in Chester | Tony’s Portrait Session

Business headshot photography in Chester

A good business portrait doesn’t have to mean standing against a plain background and forcing a smile at the camera.

I photographed Tony, a business growth specialist, in Chester after he wanted to update his professional images. Rather than working in one location, we spent an hour walking around the city and created a collection of portraits in different surroundings.

This gave Tony more than one traditional headshot. We created professional portraits that could be used across his website, LinkedIn and other business marketing while still showing something of his personality.

Chester gave us plenty of opportunities to change the look of the photographs without travelling far. We used streets, buildings and interiors to create a varied collection while keeping Tony recognisable and natural throughout.

That’s still an important part of how I photograph people today. I want someone to look professional, but I don’t want to photograph the personality out of them.

If you’re looking for business headshot photography in Chester, I photograph individuals and teams on location, creating professional portraits that still look like you.
