Fat Fox Photography

Fat Fox Photography is a portrait specialist based in Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk, led by Dan Skinner. Portrait work is at the heart of what we do — whether it’s classic studio lighting, an informal session at home, or an outdoor shoot that reflects your personality. With over 35 years of experience behind a camera and a lifetime around professional photography (Dan grew up learning from his father, a long‑time news and features photographer), we bring technical skill, editorial judgement and a calm, friendly approach to every portrait session. Why choose Fat Fox for your professional portrait or headshot? We focus on making people feel at ease. Our sessions are relaxed and conversational, designed to capture authentic expressions rather than stiff poses. For business portraits and LinkedIn photos we aim for clarity, confidence and approachability — images that work across websites, social profiles and press materials. For family or personal portraits we look for genuine moments and small details that tell your story. The result is a set of professional portraits that look natural, modern and timeless. How we work: start by telling us what you need — studio headshots, a LinkedIn update, a family session at home or an outdoor portrait. We discuss location, wardrobe and the mood you want to convey, then plan a short, efficient shoot that respects your time. On the day Dan uses a mix of refined studio lighting and simple direction to create flattering, characterful images. After the session we carefully select and edit the best shots so you receive polished files ready to use online or in print. Fat Fox Photography positions itself as a portrait expert in Bury St Edmunds and across East Anglia. While portraiture is our core speciality, we also have broad experience covering events, equine and corporate work — but when it comes to headshots, business portraits and studio sessions, portraiture is our focus. If you want a professional, personable portrait experience with attention to detail and a gentle, editorial eye, get in touch and let us help you create portraits you'll enjoy for years to come.
