Antler Photography

Hi — I’m Jake Malyon, the photographer behind Antler Photography in Braintree. I specialise in portrait photography with a clear focus on professional business portraits and headshots that help people and brands present their best, most authentic selves. My work sits at the intersection of cinematic composition and honest storytelling: I aim to create portraits that are both polished and true to the person in front of the camera. Why choose Antler for portrait work? My background photographing athletes and brands taught me to read moments and capture character under pressure. I bring that same attention to detail and energy to portrait sessions — whether you need a confident LinkedIn photo, a refined headshot for your website, or imagery that supports your brand identity. Clients come back because I create relaxed shoots that still look dynamic and head-turning. My approach is collaborative and straightforward. We start with a conversation about what you want the images to say: the tone, the audience, and where the portraits will be used. On the day I foster a calm, conversational atmosphere so people feel comfortable and present. I guide expressions, posture and small movements to capture natural confidence — the moments that read well both online and in print. Technically I favour clean composition, strong lighting and a cinematic eye that puts the subject front and centre. For business portraits I tune lighting and framing to suit your industry and brand style so the finished images work across LinkedIn profiles, websites, press materials and social channels. Antler Photography offers a bespoke portrait experience for businesses and professionals around Braintree and across GB. I care about honesty and detail in every frame — creating professional headshots and business portraits that feel genuine and make an impact. If you want portrait photography that combines a purposeful, branded outcome with a relaxed, human shoot experience, I’d love to hear about your project.
