Jennifer Thoburn Photography & Design Studio

As a specialist in portrait photography, Jennifer Thoburn brings over a decade of industry experience and an award-winning creative eye to every session. Based on the border of Lancashire and Yorkshire with a fully equipped studio at Higherford Mill (near Colne and Barrowford), Jennifer focuses on professional portraits and headshots that feel natural, confident and distinctly individual. Why choose Jennifer for your portrait? Her approach is calm and conversational. Whether you need a studio headshot for LinkedIn, a library of professional portraits for your business, or a relaxed family session, Jennifer guides you through the shoot with clear direction and gentle encouragement. The result is authentic images that communicate personality and professionalism — not stiff poses. Clients regularly praise her ability to help camera-shy subjects relax and to draw out the expressions that make a portrait memorable. What makes her approach special is the blend of art direction and portrait craft. Jennifer combines sophisticated lighting, considered styling and expert retouching to deliver images that work across print, web and social. In the studio she uses a selection of classic and contemporary sets — from panelled living-room backdrops to warm white portrait sets — so each session is tailored to the look you want. For business clients she offers focused sessions to create consistent, on-brand imagery across staff headshots and personal branding libraries. How she works: every portrait begins with a short consultation to define tone and objectives. On the day, Jennifer creates a relaxed atmosphere and gives hands-on posing and wardrobe guidance. After the shoot, images are presented in a private online gallery with professional edits applied to the chosen files. Jennifer’s attention to detail — from lighting to final retouch — ensures images you’ll be proud to use. Based in Colne and serving the wider Lancashire and Yorkshire region, Jennifer Thoburn Photography & Design Studio specialises in portrait and business photography. If you want thoughtful, expertly crafted portraits with a personal touch, Jennifer makes the process simple, enjoyable and reliably professional.
