How she works: every session begins with a conversation — understanding your goals, where the photos will be used and the mood you want to convey. From there Nkima helps shape the session: selecting flattering locations around Croydon or creating a controlled studio vibe, advising on wardrobe and small styling touches, and guiding poses in a warm, conversational way. The result is a calm, confidence-building experience where real moments and genuine expressions are captured. Specialist skills you’ll notice: editorial framing, attention to fashion-forward detail, and an ability to find flattering natural light. These strengths translate into professional headshots and LinkedIn photos that stand out for their clarity, personality and refined finish. While portraiture is Nkima’s primary focus, she also brings the sensitivity she’s developed across weddings and lifestyle work into one-on-one sessions — making each portrait memorable and beautifully composed.
