Alex Winn Photography

I’m Alex Winn — a portrait specialist working from my studio at Trinity Buoy Wharf, just a short hop from Canary Wharf. My focus is simple: creating professional portraits and headshots that genuinely represent you. Whether you need a confident business portrait for LinkedIn, a striking press image or a cinematic outdoor portrait, I bring years of experience and a calm, collaborative approach to every session. Why choose me? I believe a great portrait is built on trust and conversation. My sessions start with a chat and often a cup of tea so I can understand who you are, the roles you play, or the way you want to present your professional self. That relaxed start makes it easier for even camera-shy clients to be themselves in front of the camera — and the most convincing portraits are always the most honest ones. What makes my approach different is the blend of technical control and natural light sensibility. I normally photograph you in the studio first, using clean, considered lighting and backgrounds, and then we head outdoors for natural daylight shots that can feel more cinematic — both styles give you range and help casting directors, employers or clients see the different sides of you. I work digitally and review images with you during the shoot so we can refine looks as we go. How I work: sessions are personalised and unhurried. You’ll receive an online contact sheet within 24–48 hours so you can review the selection soon after the session. I provide professional retouching that enhances your images while keeping them true to life — the goal is always to look like you at your best. For clients requiring prints, I can prepare high-quality prints through my chosen lab. My passion for portraiture comes from a fascination with faces and stories. I enjoy helping people present themselves with clarity and confidence, and I take pride in portraits that work across press, portfolios and professional profiles.
