Anvil and Hammer Agency

At Anvil and Hammer Agency we treat portrait photography as a craft — hand-forged to reflect the confidence, authenticity and professionalism of every subject. Based in Denton, GB, we specialise in professional portraits and business headshots designed to help people and teams present their best selves across LinkedIn, corporate bios, press materials and company websites. Why choose Anvil and Hammer for your portrait? Because we combine creative marketing insight with photography expertise. Our team approaches each portrait session with the same strategic mindset we use for brand work: we listen first, identify how the images will be used, then craft a look and approach that reinforces your personal or company brand. The result is portraits that don’t just look good — they work for your business. Our style is polished, natural and focused on authenticity. We aim to capture approachable authority — the small expressions and posture that communicate competence and warmth. Whether you need a crisp executive headshot, a cohesive set of team portraits, or a standout LinkedIn photo, we use professional lighting and composition to create images that perform across digital and print channels. How we work: sessions are straightforward and client-focused. We start with a short creative briefing to understand your objectives and audience. From there we recommend wardrobe, background and framing options that align with your brand. Sessions can be arranged as focused headshot shoots or integrated into wider projects — we have a network of award-winning photographers and can deliver studio-quality results on location when required. Our process is relaxed and efficient, designed to put subjects at ease so genuine expression comes through. Our photography is part of a wider branding and marketing service, so if you’re developing a new corporate identity, website or marketing campaign, we can ensure your portraits align seamlessly with your visual strategy. Handcrafted in Denton and delivered with a marketer’s eye, our professional portraits help you make a stronger first impression, build trust, and support the relationships that drive business.
