Specialist portrait studio in Aylesbury. Teacup Pictures delivers relaxed, natural portraits and professional headshots for personal and business use — friendly, affordable and tailored to you.
I’m Sally, the photographer behind Teacup Pictures, and portrait photography is at the heart of what I do. Based in Aylesbury, I specialise in creating relaxed, natural portraits that capture personality — whether that’s a contemporary studio portrait, an outdoor family session, or a confident professional headshot for LinkedIn and business use. My background as a Producer-Director in television taught me how to make people feel at ease in front of a camera. That experience is central to my approach: I guide rather than direct, I look for honest moments, and I work quickly to find flattering light and genuine expressions. My style is warm, straightforward and people-led — I tell clients that when people ask me what photography equipment I use, I tell them my eyes. Sessions are tailored to you. If you prefer a clean studio look I can set up a studio-style session at your home or a hired space; if you want a more natural feel we’ll use local outdoor backdrops around Aylesbury. For business portraits and professional headshots I focus on producing images that work across websites and social profiles, helping sole traders and small businesses present a consistent, professional image without fuss. I’m happy to advise on outfits and can arrange a make-up artist to help you feel your best if you’d like. I pride myself on a friendly, unhurried atmosphere that helps even camera-shy clients relax. Sessions are collaborative: we’ll talk beforehand about the look you want, I’ll guide poses and expressions during the shoot, and I’ll carefully edit the final images so they look natural and polished. My aim is to deliver gorgeous portraits that are also accessible and affordable — photography that people can enjoy for years to come. If you’re in Aylesbury or nearby and looking for a portrait specialist who blends experience, warmth and a clear eye for the best shot, get in touch. I’ll be happy to discuss a portrait or headshot session tailored to your needs and help you choose the right approach for the results you want.
