LinkedIn Headshot Photography in London
Looking for a professional LinkedIn headshot photographer in London who can help you stand out in 2026 and beyond?
Whether you need to replace an old LinkedIn photo or a full LinkedIn photoshoot to give you whole range of professional images, I’ll ensure your profile makes the right impression.
Your LinkedIn profile picture is often the first thing people notice. I help professionals appear credible & approachable with a high-quality headshot that supports your personal brand.
Why Choose Me For Your Professional LinkedIn Headshot
Everyone hates having their photo take, including me. So I’ll work with you to create a professional LinkedIn headshot that looks natural, confident and tailored to your industry.
Most people find the process much less painful than they expected and some even enjoy the experience!
There are no stiff poses and no awkward setups. You’ll enjoy a relaxed and efficient session that results in a LinkedIn photo you will genuinely want to use.
If you’ve used a free AI LinkedIn tool or cropped an old photo before, you’ll notice the difference immediately. A strong headshot will not only refresh your profile, it will also help create a lasting impression on colleagues, recruiters and clients.
I understand the nuances of creating LinkedIn headshots in London that suit a wide range of industries, from finance and law to tech, media and healthcare. I take time to tailor the lighting, pose and background to you, ensuring your image aligns with the tone of your personal brand.
A properly taken LinkedIn headshot communicates authenticity, qualities that automated tools often miss. I focus on producing portraits that feel like you, only on your best day.
If you’re preparing for a promotion, career change or networking event, booking a LinkedIn photoshoot in London is one of the simplest ways to strengthen your online presence. Your headshot can be used not only on LinkedIn but also across your company website, speaker profiles and press features, helping you maintain a consistent professional identity wherever your work takes you.
Headshots for Individuals
Most clients visit my studio in Kennington, studio for a 45-minute session, which delivers five fully retouched images. This provides enough time to capture a variety of shots without rushing the process.
If you need headshots for a team or group, I can come to your workplace for a half-day or full-day booking. This approach keeps everyone consistent and saves time, especially for larger teams.
I can also visit individuals at home or workplace if needed.
Extended Sessions for More Variety
Some people choose to book a longer session so we can produce a wider range of images. In addition to your core headshots, I capture relaxed and informal portraits that you can use for:
- Press features and articles
- Speaking engagements and conferences
- Social media profiles and websites
Having a variety of photos gives you flexibility and ensures you always have an appropriate image ready when needed.
The Process
Each session begins with a conversation about the image you want to present. We’ll discuss the style, background and tone that will work best for your professional goals.
Sometimes we capture the ideal shot within the first ten minutes. In other cases, we take a little more time to help you feel comfortable in front of the camera. My patient, collaborative approach allows us to produce results that you will be happy to share on LinkedIn and beyond.
After the shoot, you’ll receive access to a private online gallery to review and choose your favourite images for editing. Once edited you can then use the photos as you wish.
These photos are ideal for professional profiles, websites, PR opportunities and speaking events.

My Approach To LinkedIn Headshots
Frequently Asked Questions
What can you expect during the headshot session?
We’ll meet at the studio and start with a chat about you, your work, and the industry you’re in. This helps us understand your needs and gives us a chance to get to know each other. Together, we’ll decide on how the photos should look. While you get ready in the changing room, we’ll set up the lighting and background in the studio to capture shots tailored to your requirements.
How many photos will be taken, and how are the final selections handled?
Typically 80–150 photos will be taken during the session. This allows us to capture the best facial expressions and make adjustments to the lighting and background as needed. The lighting and background will be changed during the shoot to give you some different looks. After the shoot, the photos are passed to our editor, who removes unusable shots (e.g., closed eyes). You’ll then receive a gallery of proof images, where you can pick your favorites using an easy-to-use system. Your chosen photos will be edited and retouched to perfection.
How long does the session typically last?
A LinkedIn headshot session usually lasts 30–45 minutes per person.
How long does it take to receive the final photos?
You’ll receive your proof gallery within 3 working days after the shoot. Once you’ve made your selections, the final edited photos will be ready within another 3 working days. If you have tight deadlines, let us know, and we can accommodate.
Do you provide guidance on what to wear for a professional headshot?
Yes! We recommend wearing what you’d typically choose for a client meeting or job interview. Since the photos will focus on your head and shoulders, you can bring 2–3 different outfit options. For example, you might bring a jacket and blouse/shirt as one option, and a smart top as another. Depending on your industry, you may also want to bring a more casual option.
What backgrounds or settings do you offer for headshots?
Our studio has white, grey, black, and coloured backgrounds available. We can also shoot outdoors near the studio if you prefer, or on location. Additionally, custom backgrounds can be added in post-production if you have a specific idea in mind.
What makes a good LinkedIn headshot?
A good LinkedIn headshot should be well-lit, in focus and framed from the shoulders up. It should capture you looking approachable, confident and authentic. Neutral backgrounds work best, allowing your expression to stand out without distraction.
Should I smile in my LinkedIn photo?
Yes, a natural smile helps you appear friendly and trustworthy. You don’t need to grin widely, even a subtle, relaxed smile can project warmth and confidence.
Is a professional LinkedIn photo really necessary?
While anyone can upload a quick selfie, a professional headshot immediately sets you apart. It shows that you value your career and understand how to present yourself online, which is especially important for client-facing roles and leadership positions.
Can I book a LinkedIn photoshoot for my whole team?
Absolutely. We offer on-site LinkedIn headshot sessions across London, providing consistent, high-quality images for businesses and organisations. Team sessions are efficient and cost-effective, giving everyone a polished professional image.
What should I wear for a professional LinkedIn photo?
Choose clothing that aligns with your profession and feels comfortable. Solid colours often photograph better than busy patterns. We’ll discuss outfit choices before your shoot to make sure they complement your background and lighting setup.
