Sarah at Photography by Olive Tree offers personalised studio portrait sessions in Blackheath and on location, creating relaxed, confident professional and family portraits you’ll cherish.
Photography by Olive Tree specialises in portrait photography from a welcoming studio in Blackheath and on-location around London. Sarah’s approach is personal and calm — she believes the best portraits come from relaxed, natural moments, whether you’re after a timeless studio image, a confident professional headshot or a warm family portrait. Her aim is to create photos that feel like you and that you’ll want to display and treasure. Why choose Sarah? She brings years of experience behind the camera and a gentle, conversational style that helps even those who feel nervous in front of the lens to feel at ease. Sarah started photographing at a young age and has built her practice around capturing real personalities. That same attention to detail she honed working on wedding days is now focused on creating purposeful, flattering portraits that tell your story — not stiff, one-size-fits-all images. What makes her approach special is the planning and care that happen before and after the shoot. Every portrait session begins with a proper chat: Sarah listens to what matters to you, shares styling and location ideas from her pre-shoot guide, and tailors the session to your needs. On the day she keeps things relaxed and paced to suit you, guiding poses and lighting to bring out authentic expressions. After the shoot you’ll have a viewing session where Sarah walks you through the edited images and helps you choose how to enjoy them — from elegant studio prints to framed wall art or personalised albums. How Sarah works with clients is collaborative and straightforward. She treats each session as a bespoke experience, whether it’s a studio portrait in Blackheath or an on-location shoot to capture a specific mood or backdrop. She can travel for shoots across London and will help plan the session so you know exactly what to expect. Her focus is on making the experience enjoyable and delivering beautifully finished images that reflect your personality and purpose. If you’re looking for portrait photography that combines warmth, technical skill and a thoughtful editorial finish, Photography by Olive Tree provides a calm, professional experience in Blackheath and beyond.
