Brighton-based portrait studio offering professional headshots and expressive studio portraits. Aaron Banks creates relaxed, authentic images for business and personal use.
Aaron Banks Photography is a Brighton portrait specialist dedicated to creating studio portraits and professional headshots that feel natural, confident and true to the person in front of the camera. As a photographer who focuses on portrait work, Aaron’s priority is to bring out genuine expressions and a calm presence so clients can present their best selves—whether for LinkedIn, company profiles or personal portraits. What sets Aaron apart is a studio practice built around simplicity and connection. Sessions are relaxed and conversational: Aaron guides posture, lighting and small movements in an unobtrusive way so you can stay comfortable and present. That straightforward, people-first approach produces portraits with honest expression and flattering yet authentic lighting that work across print, web and professional profiles. How he works: every session begins with a short conversation to understand your aims—brand, industry expectations or the mood you want to convey. In the studio Aaron focuses on creating an atmosphere where even camera-shy clients feel at ease. Clear direction on posing and subtle coaching on expression help generate a variety of looks, from approachable and friendly to poised and authoritative. The result is a curated selection of images that tell your story and support your professional objectives. Aaron’s portrait work also benefits from a wider curiosity in visual storytelling gained through street, sport and natural-world photography. Those influences inform composition, attention to light and the ability to seize authentic moments, while portraiture remains the core focus of the practice. Whether you need a polished business portrait, a headshot for social media or a personal studio portrait, Aaron Banks Photography in Brighton offers a professional, human-centred service. The emphasis is always on collaboration, making the session straightforward and enjoyable, and delivering portraits that feel like you—clear, confident and memorable.
