With a First Class Honours degree in Photography and several years working with local and national clients, Leah has refined a portrait practice that prioritises authenticity, strong lighting and meticulous editing. Why choose Leah for your portrait or business headshot? Leah treats portraiture as collaborative storytelling. Whether you need a standout LinkedIn photo, a corporate headshot for your team or a personal portrait that reflects who you are, she approaches every session with careful planning and creative intent. Her strengths in creative direction, lighting and editing mean images don’t just look professional — they feel considered and true to the subject. What makes the experience different? Leah builds strong relationships with clients from the first conversation. Sessions begin with a relaxed brief where she listens to your goals, references and comfort level. In the studio she fosters an uplifting, safe and trusting environment so even camera-shy clients feel at ease. Leah’s direction is gentle and clear: she shapes posture, expression and wardrobe choices with the same attention she gives to lighting and composition. How Leah works: after an initial chat to define tone and use (social, press, corporate), Leah develops simple creative direction and proposes practical choices for the shoot. On the day she uses considered lighting setups to flatter features and capture personality, then applies refined editing to deliver polished, ready-to-use portraits. Clients leave not only with high-quality images but with a confident, natural representation of themselves. Leah’s portfolio shows versatility across personal and business portraiture — clean corporate headshots, natural LinkedIn photos and expressive studio portraits. Based in Chapeltown, she welcomes individuals and small teams from Sheffield and across GB who want portrait photography with a creative yet professional approach. If you’re looking for a portrait studio that combines technical skill with thoughtful creative direction and a supportive atmosphere, Leah Abdulla Creative specialises in making professional portraits that look and feel like you.
