Cirencester portrait studio specialising in professional headshots and business portraits. Kay’s relaxed, award‑winning style helps even camera‑shy clients feel confident for authentic, polished images.
I’m Kay Ransom and portrait photography is at the heart of what I do. Based in Cirencester, I’ve spent twenty years refining a practice that combines technical craft with a warm, relaxed approach so that every client — from sole traders to whole teams — ends up with professional portraits that feel honest and useful. Why choose me? I’m an award‑winning photographer who understands how a portrait must work: it should reflect personality, look great across web and print, and help the subject communicate credibility. My background in film and television taught me to read a scene and find the light; that experience feeds directly into how I capture faces and expressions that matter for business use. My style is straightforward and people‑centred. I’ll steer the session with gentle direction and a little humour where it helps, or blend into the background when you want natural, reportage‑style moments. Clients often tell me shoots are unexpectedly fun — and that comfort always shows in the final images. How I work: we start with a short pre‑shoot conversation to clarify tone, wardrobe and where the images will be used. I shoot in my portable pop‑up studio or on location around Cirencester and the Cotswolds, so you can choose clean background headshots, lifestyle portraits in your workspace, or an outdoor image that ties to your brand. For corporate bookings I photograph teams on site with suitable backdrops and efficient workflows so everyone has a positive experience. After the shoot I carefully edit and polish your chosen frames, providing high‑resolution files ready for LinkedIn, websites, brochures and social media. Images are supplied in colour and black & white, cropped for various uses and delivered via secure online sharing. I specialise in portraits and business headshots — it’s where my passion and expertise meet. If you’re looking for a portrait photographer in Cirencester who blends technical skill, creative vision and an easygoing manner, I’d love to help you create images that work as hard as you do.
