Portraiture & Headshots...
… aren’t about looking polished. They’re about being recognised. They reveal something deeper than performance. They show how a person carries themselves, how they hold attention, how presence translates through the camera. Most folk arrive slightly uncertain in front of the lens. They’ve seen photographs of themselves that felt unfamiliar or uncomfortable. My work begins there – with careful direction, observation, and the small adjustments that allow someone to settle naturally into themselves.
We begin with you. What drives you? What are you creating? How do you want to show up? What do you stand for?
We start with curiosity. Simple. Honest. Clear.
The Process
Unrushed. Grounded. Fully guided.
You don’t need to know how to pose or perform. You don’t need to arrive as a curated version of yourself. Your job is to show up. Mine is to take care of the rest.
The most honest portraits happen when we meet for the first time on the day. No assumptions, no pre-written script about who you “should” be. I begin with fresh eyes, ready to see you.
Prefer to talk beforehand? If you feel more comfortable chatting first, you’re welcome to book a consultation. It’s there for reassurance, not obligation.
What’s included in every session:
- Optional Pre-Session Conversation: Wardrobe or intention planning, if helpful.
- Guided Portrait Session: A fully directed, client-led studio session. We take as much time as you need (45 mins to several hours) to let the performance fade.
- Unlimited Wardrobe & Backgrounds: Change as often as you like to capture different facets of your presence.
- Flexible Viewing: Choose your portraits on the day or return for a dedicated Cinematic Premiere appointment.
- Professional Retouching: Careful, natural refinement that preserves character – never plastic perfection.
- Fine Art Printing (Optional): Hand-crafted, signed & embossed archival prints available in A4, A3, and A2.
Investment & Booking

Because every session is unique, you cannot know exactly how many images will resonate until you see them. Most clients arrive hoping for a single headshot and leave with a complete visual story.

How Flexibility Works: If you fall in love with more images than your starting collection includes, we simply expand your tier during selection. You only pay the difference. There is no pressure to stick to the original plan; the goal is simply to ensure you leave with every image that resonates.
Returning Clients: A Continued Journey
I warmly welcome clients who choose to return. There is a unique depth to a second or third session: the initial fear of the camera has faded, the trust is already built, and the purpose is often clearer. Portraiture is rarely a one-time event; it’s a way of documenting who you are at different moments in your life. When we meet again, we skip the warming-up phase. We begin with a foundation of trust, allowing us to go straight to the work of revealing new layers of presence and identity.
Returning Client Rate:
The Essential Collection: $850
The Signature Collection: $1,500
The Complete Archive: $3,500
A discounted rate to honour our continued collaboration. Same unrushed experience, same full attention.

A Note on my Approach
Centred. Fully Present. Let’s make something true. A portrait cannot be rushed. It takes time for the performance to fade and for you to simply be. That is why my sessions are entirely client-led. We do not watch the clock. We work together until the images feel true – until they reveal the person behind the role.
The Space to Settle Many studios operate on tight schedules, forcing a “good enough” result in 30 minutes. I work differently. I book only one session per day. This means my full attention is yours, from the moment you arrive until we are finished. Whether we need 45 minutes or several hours, we take the time required. There is no rush, no pressure to perform, and no interruption. Just a calm, focused space where you can settle naturally into yourself.
Why This Matters You are unique, and your portraits should be too. By removing the time limit, we create the conditions for genuine connection and subtle, recognisable expressions to emerge. This is not about volume; it is about finding the right images.
Transparent Selection Because every session is different, I do not bundle a set number of images arbitrarily. Instead, we make that decision together during your selection, based entirely on what resonates with you. You only choose what feels right.
