I can still remember my first headshot gig, taking staff portraits in a client’s London office. I went for an uncomplicated set up with one light and reflector, and a back drop in the company’s brand colour. I got the shots and the client was happy.

But fast forward more than a decade and my approach to shooting heads and shoulders looks a little bit different today. While I do still shoot In offices, these days I also work a lot more out on location, in conditions that are always changing, so now I pick my lights and modifiers to suit the environment I’m working in on the day.

One thing that hasn’t changed though in all that time, is that I still love shooting headshots! Meeting new people and new faces, and being able to make that connection in that short window of time I have with them in front of the lens, to produce natural, relaxed and confident looking portraits.
