Peter Medlicott Photography

I specialise in portrait photography from my base in Birmingham, bringing two decades of professional experience and a straightforward, client-first approach to every session. Portraits aren’t just pictures — they’re carefully composed introductions that represent you, your brand and your story. Whether you need a confident LinkedIn headshot, a suite of personal-branding images or professional portraits for a team, I concentrate on making authentic, usable imagery that works across web, social and print. What sets my portrait studio approach apart is simplicity and collaboration. I begin with a short consultation to understand the look you want, who your audience is and how the images will be used. That brief shapes everything from lighting and backdrop to wardrobe guidance and posing. I bring full studio lighting and a calm, conversational manner to put people at ease — many clients tell me they’re surprised at how relaxed and natural they feel in front of the camera. I offer both a studio experience and a mobile pop-up option, so we can work where it’s most convenient for you. The mobile studio brings the same polished results into offices, conference venues or on-location shoots, ideal for rolling out team headshots across multiple employees. For individuals, Personal Branding sessions combine portraiture with environmental shots to create a versatile image library that tells your professional story. Practical, professional delivery is central to my service. Sessions are planned to be efficient and comfortable, and I provide a careful edit and basic retouch of selects so images are ready for use. For many commercial and PR-driven briefs I can provide rapid edits so you can publish to social channels or press quickly. Passion lies at the heart of everything I shoot — I love helping people look their best and helping businesses present a consistent, professional image. If you’re after thoughtful, well-executed portraits in Birmingham and beyond, I’ll work with you to create images we can both be proud of.
