Brixton portrait specialist Jack Terry creates natural, professional headshots and business portraits. His lifestyle, documentary-led shoots put subjects at ease and deliver confident, usable images.
I specialise in portrait photography from my Brixton base, creating professional headshots and business portraits that feel natural rather than staged. My background shooting lifestyle and commercial commissions for brands and agencies informs the way I approach portraits: I look for honest, human moments that communicate personality and professional presence at the same time. My work leans on a lifestyle, documentary-led practice — I aim to build an easy atmosphere so people relax and can be themselves. Whether you need a LinkedIn photo, a company headshot or a series of portraits for corporate use, I focus on subtle direction and quick rapport so even camera-shy subjects look confident. I often work with minimal fuss and a clear brief, which keeps sessions efficient while still delivering images with character and clarity. For business portraiture I draw on experience collaborating with creative teams and commercial clients, applying the same attention to story and tone that I bring to larger campaigns. That means thinking about how a portrait will sit in a profile, a corporate website or a press pack, and capturing expressions, posture and lighting that translate well across formats. My approach is tailored: we talk through the intended use, tweak the mood and framing, then shoot with an emphasis on authenticity and usability. Working in Brixton and across London, I favour straightforward, friendly sessions that respect your time while giving you a strong set of portraits to choose from. After the shoot I carefully select and tone images to preserve the real qualities that made the moment work — confident glances, natural smiles, and the small gestures that tell a story. If you’re looking for a portrait photographer who prioritises human-led images and practical, professional results, I’d be happy to discuss your brief. I combine a documentary sensibility with commercial experience to produce portraits that look genuine, modern and ready for business use.
