Paul Dale Photography

I’m Paul Dale, a portrait specialist based in Camberley (Surrey). Portrait photography is at the heart of what I do — from natural headshots to full-length bodyshots for actors and dancers, and confident, professional images for business use. My aim is simple: to help you look like the best version of yourself while creating pictures that feel genuine, useful and memorable. What makes my approach different is the way I blend technical control with a relaxed atmosphere. I work from a local home studio that gives more room than many commercial options, and I also shoot on location when the brief calls for it. Sessions are conversational and unhurried — we talk through your goals before we start, try different looks and I constantly show you the images as I take them so you can build confidence and steer the session in real time. I specialise in portraits for performers — actors and dancers trust me to produce images that show personality, posture and presence. I shoot both head & bodyshots, paying close attention to texture, lighting and movement so that each image can work in a casting folder or a professional portfolio. For business clients, I deliver polished headshots that transfer well across LinkedIn, websites and company profiles without losing warmth or character. The process is straightforward: we start with a conversation about what you need, plan outfits and locations, then I guide you on the day to get the best expressions and posture. After the shoot your images are uploaded to a password-protected online gallery where you can choose your favourites. I pride myself on quick turnaround and clean, considered retouching so your final portraits are ready to use. I love working with people who want more than a quick snapshot — whether you’re rebranding, updating an actor’s portfolio or preparing for auditions, I’ll give you technical expertise, practical advice and a friendly environment to get the results you need.
