Chester portrait studio specialising in contemporary professional portraits, headshots and business photos. Relaxed, confidence-led sessions with optional stylised video portraits available.
Elements Studios is a specialist portrait studio in the heart of Chester, focused on one clear goal: helping you feel confident in front of the camera and leaving with professional, striking images you’ll be proud to use. As The Portraits Pro led by Andy, we create contemporary, personality-led portraits and business headshots that cut through the noise—perfect for actors, models, professionals and anyone who wants a standout LinkedIn or corporate image. Why choose Elements Studios? We position portrait photography as our core expertise. That means every choice we make—from how we direct you on the day to the mood and lighting of the images—is aimed at capturing authenticity, poise and presence. Our sessions are relaxed and fun, designed to put even camera-shy clients at ease. Clients often remark on the welcoming atmosphere, the carefully curated playlists and the small details that make a session feel effortless and productive. What makes our approach special is the focus on story and confidence. Rather than forcing poses, Andy works conversationally to find natural moments and expressions that reveal your best self. Whether you need a polished professional headshot, a confident business portrait for company profiles, or contemporary studio portraits for personal branding, the emphasis is on direction, subtle styling and a finished look that works across online profiles and printed materials. How we work: sessions begin with a straightforward, friendly conversation about your goals and the image you want to project. On the day we guide you through looks, poses and expressions, keeping the process calm and collaborative. We tailor each shoot to the individual—no one-size-fits-all formulas—so you walk away with images that feel authentic and usable. Video portraits are offered as an optional, secondary extra for clients who want a dynamic complement to their still images—perfect for social content or a richer professional profile. Based in a light-filled Chester loft studio, Elements Studios combines specialist portrait expertise with a professional studio environment. If you want contemporary, confident portrait and headshot photography from a dedicated specialist in Chester, Elements Studios is built around helping you look and feel amazing.
