Alberto Photographer

I’m Alberto — a portrait specialist based in Earlsfield, London, focused on creating professional portraits and business headshots that feel both authentic and refined. My work is rooted in a long practice of seeing form, balance and light: seven years behind the camera complemented by seventeen years perfecting retouching techniques. That combination lets me deliver portraits that work hard for your brand, CV or LinkedIn profile while still looking natural. Why choose me for your portrait session? I treat each shoot as a collaboration. Communication, trust and a relaxed atmosphere are central to how I work — I use music and gentle direction to help people feel at ease, so even those who are camera-shy get confident, clear headshots. I guide posing and framing precisely, placing you in the light and angles that best convey professionalism and character. My approach to light is deliberate: I consider myself an architect of light and use it to sculpt features, emphasise presence and create portraits with depth. In the studio I use my Canon 6D Mark II and a Sigma 35mm f/1.4 to capture clean, expressive images that stand up to close retouching and commercial use. Post-production is an important part of the process — my retouching is non-destructive and reversible, employing techniques such as Dodge & Burn, Frequency Separation and careful layer work to preserve texture and realism while polishing the final result. For business portraits and headshots I tailor the session to your needs: whether you want a crisp LinkedIn portrait, a versatile corporate headshot or a characterful profile image, I focus on delivering usable, professional files that reflect your goals. You can rely on clear guidance during the shoot and considered editing afterward; I involve clients in the selection process if they wish and ensure the finished images match the brief. Based in Earlsfield, I welcome individuals and professionals across London looking for portrait studio sessions with meticulous retouching and a calm, collaborative experience. If you want portrait photography that combines technical mastery with a sensitive, people-first approach, I’d love to work with you.
