Gareth Potter Photography

Gareth Potter is a Bromsgrove-based portrait specialist who focuses on creating natural, honest images that reflect real people rather than stiff poses. Known to friends and clients as Gaz, he brings an easy, conversational approach to every session — the kind of relaxed energy that helps even the most camera-shy subjects feel at ease. As an award-winning portrait photographer working professionally since 2019, Gareth has refined a style that blends lifestyle warmth with clean, professional presentation. Why choose Gareth for your portrait work? His priority is authenticity. Rather than directing a catalogue of artificial poses, Gareth listens to what you want to say with your images and guides you toward moments that look and feel like you. Whether you’re after family portraits, a personal portrait to mark a milestone, or a professional headshot for business profiles, his photography emphasises natural light, genuine expression and flattering, timeless retouching. How he works: every session starts with a short, friendly consultation so Gareth can understand your goals — from wardrobe and location to the mood and uses for your photos. Sessions can be relaxed studio sittings or location-based shoots across the West Midlands; Gareth creates a calm atmosphere where people can be themselves. He provides clear posing guidance, subtle direction and patient encouragement to ensure a confident experience for adults and children alike. While portraiture is Gareth’s core specialism, he also offers professional headshots and business portraiture for clients who need strong LinkedIn or personal-brand images. These business-focused images receive the same careful attention to lighting, composition and natural expression — positioned as a tailored add-on to his portrait expertise rather than a separate specialty. Clients benefit from professional editing, delivered through a private online gallery for easy viewing and sharing. Gareth is fully insured and mindful of client care; his friendly, personal service is built on reliability and a passion for capturing people’s stories. If you’re in Bromsgrove or the surrounding West Midlands and want portraits that feel genuine and professional, Gareth Potter offers a welcoming studio experience and images you’ll actually want to live with and share.
