Create headshots you will love

As a corporate headshot photographer I understand that having your portrait taken might be nerve-wracking for some, but I believe it should be a stress-free experience. Ultimately, this makes for better headshots as people are shown to be the confident and approachable professionals they are. There is so much talent at your company and I am here to help you make them shine and show them off to the world.

let my pictures do the work

I always work with empathy, and with the efficiency which I have learned during my 20 years of experience working as a professional photographer. I will bring my portable studio (including lights) to you for your headshot photography session so I work on location. During the headshot session I have my camera connected to my laptop so people can see and choose their headshot right away.

Perfect for LinkedIn or your company website

Have you got a presentation coming up and have been asked to provide a headshot? Or perhaps you have been nominated for an Award and have been asked for a headshot to be included in the shortlist announcement? I can deliver individual London Linkedin headshot sessions as well as London company headshot sessions.

As a corporate headshot photographer I find it extremely rewarding to see people loving their own business and corporate headshots, my aim is to make it as stress free as possible and make sure that every single person having their headshot taken is 100% happy with the results.

“I don’t enjoy having my photo taken, but with Carmen everything was fun, light and uncomplicated. She puts you at ease straight away and manages to capture your best self, while allowing your personality to show through. All the editors that I worked for asked for Carmen’s portrait of me to be included in the contributors page. Everyone loved it!”

“I was recommended Carmen by my wedding photographer and she did not disappoint! I briefed Carmen on what I needed for our new company website photography and team headshots and she guided me perfectly with suggestions on what would work best. She was able to work to my tight deadlines which was important and the quality of pictures were brilliant. I highly recommend Carmen, she is personable and professional and put everyone at ease.”

Would you like to work together?

If you would like to check my availability or you have a question about my corporate headshot photographer work please head to my FAQ below or get in touch here.

Do you have a question about my headshot photography?

What kind of headshots do you specialise in?
I take mostly corporate headshots. I offer headshots for any type of business, from banks and insurance to media and creative sector companies. I work with companies and businesses, not with private clients.
Would you bring additional lighting?

Yes! I bring a portable studio with me, so expect lights, camera, and action!

Do you have a studio?

I work on-location as I find this the most time efficient way for your team as they can be working at their desk and pop by the designated area in your office to have their headshot taken.

Who chooses the final image?
I work with a set up where my camera is connected to an external screen so the person having the headshot taken can see them, I find this a great way to make people feel relaxed as they know how they are looking and they can make the needed adjustments to their hair, collar etc.

I always allow the person to choose their favourite during the session and even if post-session they want to check the other images I am happy to provide a contact sheet to them so they can look at them in their own time and make the final decision. For me the most important thing is that every person having their headshot taken is 100% happy with it.

Do you offer different backgrounds?
I offer a selection of white, grey, and black backgrounds. Some clients prefer to have an environmental background or an existing set of headshots that they would like me to match for continuity, all of this is not a problem!
Are you insured?
I am! Including public liability of up to 5 million.
How much space will you need?

At least a 6-seater meeting room, roughly 3m x 3m. Ideally with furniture that can be moved so I can have some space to set up my background and light stands. If the boardroom is available that day that will be ideal!

You don’t need to worry about plugs as my lighting is all battery operated.

What if I don’t like having my headshot taken?
That is where my ability of putting people at ease comes in. I make sure that the person having the headshot taken can trust me. Often people ask for advice on posing or they tell me they are nervous; we have a chat, so I make people feel relaxed and that is when the best results happen! Often people comment at the end “That was easier than I thought!” Also knowing that they are in control of choosing their final image helps enormously.
