Soulful portrait photography in Banbury. Janey McGill Studio creates relaxed, natural professional portraits and business headshots that reveal personality and confidence.
Film and photography with soul is more than a tagline for Janey McGill — it’s the way she approaches every portrait session in and around Banbury. As a portrait specialist, Janey blends lifestyle observation with a calm, conversational manner to capture authentic, unpolished moments that read as true professional portraits and impactful business headshots. Why choose Janey McGill Studio for your portrait? Janey listens first. She wants to know who you are, what you want your image to say, and who you’re trying to reach. That insight feeds a relaxed shoot atmosphere where even camera-shy clients find their voice. Her background in filmmaking and commercial work gives her a strong eye for composition and storytelling; she applies that sensitivity to every headshot, LinkedIn photo and editorial portrait so the final images do more than look good — they work for you. What makes her approach special is a mix of curiosity, imagination and practical calm. Janey describes herself as an "ace trouble shooter" — calm in chaos — which shows in how she handles last-minute briefs, tricky lighting or portrait sessions that need fast, confident decisions. She favours natural poses and genuine interaction over stiff formality, producing portraits that feel warm, authoritative and human. Her network and experience delivering for brands and business clients mean she understands the needs of corporate visuals as well as personal portraiture. How a portrait session with Janey works: we start with a chat about your aims and audience, then agree a tone — cinematic, candid, or clean corporate. On the day Janey creates a relaxed environment, guiding conversation and subtle direction so you look present and confident. After the shoot she carefully edits images to preserve the soul of the moment while ensuring polished, professional results ready for profiles, press, websites or print. Janey loves working with people who value long-term relationships and thoughtful visual assets. If you want professional headshots or a portrait that tells your story with honesty and heart, Janey McGill Studio in Banbury is here to listen, create and deliver.
