Natural-light portrait studio in Beverley creating relaxed, authentic portraits and professional headshots. Gemma’s warm, storytelling approach puts you at ease for standout images.
I’m Gemma Hopkin — your creative sidekick for portrait photography based in Beverley, East Yorkshire (with a London base when needed). As a specialist in portrait photography I focus on natural, honest images: relaxed family portraits, personal portraits and professional business headshots that truly reflect who you are. My approach is rooted in natural light and gentle direction. I want your session to feel calm and easy, not staged or rigid. Whether you prefer the comfort of my studio, a favourite local spot, or a workplace for business portraits, I work as an observer and storyteller — guiding when needed but mostly capturing real moments and genuine expressions. Pets, children and partners are welcome; I know how valuable those unposed interactions are. For business clients I create professional headshots and brand portraits that help you connect with clients. From relaxed LinkedIn photos to styled studio headshots, I aim to produce images that suit your industry and personal brand. Before any shoot we’ll have a conversation about your goals and tone so the final images are useful across websites, social media and marketing materials. My background in BA Hons Photography and experience in film and media informs how I craft narratives visually. I’ve had the pleasure of working with clients across creative and media industries, and I bring that storytelling sensibility to every portrait session. My style is clean, warm and timeless — designed to age well and remain relevant as your story evolves. Booking is collaborative and flexible. I’ll help you choose location, wardrobe ideas and offer a relaxed session flow so you can enjoy the experience. After the shoot I carefully edit and deliver images that maintain the natural look and emotional truth of the moment. If you want professional portraits with personality — whether a headshot for your business profile or a family session to freeze a moment in time — I’d love to chat. Let’s create images that feel like you and help tell your story.
