Woodard Photography

Woodard Photography is your local portrait specialist in Crawley (Pound Hill), led by Linda Woodard. Portraiture is at the heart of Linda’s work — she focuses on capturing honest, natural images that show who you really are, whether that’s a confident professional, a playful child or a family sharing a quiet moment. Her approach is warm, unhurried and practical: creating an atmosphere where people feel comfortable, look like themselves and enjoy the experience. Why choose Linda for your portrait? Linda brings a deeply personal touch to every session. Having built her practice around family and portrait work, she understands how to guide people into natural poses and how to let authentic expressions come through. Her studio is set up with a wide selection of backdrops, props and a carefully curated client wardrobe for maternity, children and portrait looks — all chosen so your images sit beautifully in your home or on your professional profiles. How Linda works with clients: every portrait session is collaborative. She takes time to talk through ideas before you arrive, helps choose clothing or wardrobe from the studio’s collection, and adapts the shoot to suit personalities and needs. Sessions are relaxed and paced for comfort — especially with children or clients who prefer a gentler approach. Linda also has experience working with clients with additional needs and aims to make every session calm and accommodating. What makes the portraits stand out: Linda favours natural posing, thoughtful composition and a light editorial touch in post-production. She is a skilled digital retoucher who uses careful techniques to preserve skin texture and the integrity of each image while offering enhanced editing where clients want it. For professionals, she offers business portraits and headshots designed to work across LinkedIn, websites and marketing — clean, confident images that communicate your brand without feeling over-styled. Based in Crawley, Woodard Photography blends a friendly, family-focused sensibility with professional portrait expertise. If you’re looking for studio portraits or a polished headshot delivered with care, Linda’s relaxed style, attention to detail and dedication to making people look like their best selves make Woodard Photography a natural choice.
