Specialist portrait photographer in Bath — TJ Fotos creates relaxed studio and on-location portraits, professional headshots and LinkedIn photos with a friendly, confidence-building approach.
I’m Tim at TJ Fotos, a portrait specialist based in Bath. My photographic roots began during my military career where I learned to read light, shadow, composition and the small expressions that reveal real feeling. Since leaving the army in 2011 I’ve focused on portrait work, studying and refining my craft through courses and hands-on sessions. That experience means I bring both technical skill and a calm, reassuring presence to every shoot. My approach is simple: make people feel at ease so genuine moments can happen. Whether you choose a studio session, an on-location shoot or a portrait taken at your home, I prioritise comfort and natural expression over stiff poses. For business portraits and professional headshots — including LinkedIn images — I guide you with gentle direction that produces confident, approachable photos tailored to your industry and personal brand. I specialise in producing images that work hard for you: crisp, well-lit headshots for business profiles, relaxed environmental portraits that tell a personal story, and studio portraits with clean, timeless lighting. I pay close attention to detail — from pose and posture to lighting and composition — so every image feels considered and authentic. My goal is to capture not just what you look like, but how you want to be seen. Working with me is collaborative and easy. We begin with a quick conversation about what you need — the look, the use (LinkedIn, company bio, portfolio), and any location preferences. On the day I create a relaxed atmosphere and keep things moving so you feel comfortable and confident in front of the camera. After the session I deliver professional digital images ready for use online or in print. While portraiture is my core focus, I also enjoy family shoots and location work that capture treasured moments. If you’re in Bath or the surrounding area and want a portrait that feels natural, professional and distinctly you, get in touch — I’ll help you plan the session and ensure the final images reflect your best self.
