Simply Media Photography & Videography is a portrait specialist based in Bishop Auckland, focused on making every studio session feel comfortable, creative and authentic. With a clear emphasis on portrait photography and professional headshots, Simply Media helps individuals, professionals and families create images that represent who they really are — whether that’s for a personal portrait, a LinkedIn headshot or creative studio work. What sets Simply Media apart is a studio-first approach that blends technical skill with a warm, relaxed atmosphere. Sessions are designed to put subjects at ease: from Mini Sessions to full Studio Sessions and bespoke Photo Shoot Experiences, the team encourages natural expression and uses thoughtfully chosen props and backgrounds to support each client’s vision. Images are presented in a stunning online private gallery for simple selection and download, with digital orders typically delivered quickly via secure links. The photographer’s style is approachable and versatile — able to deliver crisp, professional headshots suitable for business profiles as well as more stylised portraiture that showcases personality. Rather than forcing poses, the focus is on gentle direction and conversation that produces confident, authentic results. This makes Simply Media a strong choice for anyone who wants a professional portrait without the stiffness often associated with studio shoots. How they work: every session is planned around the client. From initial enquiries through to the online gallery delivery, the process is collaborative and clear. The studio environment is intentionally welcoming and well-equipped, with a range of props and backdrops available to customise your shoot. For groups, events or special celebrations, the Photo Shoot Experience can be adapted to create a memorable session that feels more like a fun activity than a formal appointment. While portrait photography is the core speciality, Simply Media also offers videography services — ideal for clients who want short studio videos alongside their portraits. Wherever your needs lie, the team in Bishop Auckland combines technical know-how, a friendly approach and a commitment to delivering images that clients are proud to use and share. If you’re looking for professional portraits or headshots in Bishop Auckland, Simply Media offers expert guidance, a welcoming studio and a clear focus on capturing authentic, high-quality images that tell your story.
