Professional Headshots for Individuals: Process, Details, and Fees

Headshot
How an individual studio headshot session works, how you can prepare to get the best results, and the details on turnaround and pricing.

Good headshots are essential for websites, LinkedIn profiles and press engagements. If you need an updated individual portrait, I offer dedicated studio sessions designed to be efficient, collaborative, and entirely focused on creating a confident, credible image.

Here is everything you need to know about how individual headshot sessions work, how to prepare, and the costs involved.

The Process

The emphasis of every session is on minimal stress, clear direction, and a comfortable experience, especially for those who dislike having their photo taken.

  • The Location: Individual sessions are held at my professional studio in Kennington, London.
  • Preview: We review your images live on a screen during the shoot. This allows you to see the results immediately and approve the look before we finish the session.
  • Clear Guidance: With over 15 years of experience, I provide straightforward direction throughout the session to ensure we capture authentic, professional images.

Preparation and Details

To ensure the shoot runs smoothly and results in the best possible images, I recommend following a few simple preparation guidelines:

  • Clothing: Wear plain, well-fitting clothing in solid colors. Avoid busy patterns, prominent logos, or very bright white shirts without a jacket.
  • Variations: Bring a spare jacket, blazer, or top to allow for a quick change and multiple looks.
  • Grooming: Hair should be neat, and beards or facial hair should be tidy.
  • Glasses: If you normally wear glasses, please wear them. Anti-glare coatings on the lenses are helpful but not required.

Pricing and Delivery

Pricing for individual professional headshots is straightforward with no hidden costs:

  • Individual Session Fee: £225
  • Duration: A 45-minute dedicated studio session.
  • What is Included: The fee includes 5 professionally retouched, high-resolution digital images.
  • Delivery: Images are provided in both web and print-ready sizes. The standard turnaround time is within three working days, delivered via a secure folder or online gallery.
