Dumitrel Rada Photography

I’m Dumitrel Rada — a portrait photographer based in Enfield Lock with a studio at M25 Business Central, Waltham Abbey. My work is rooted in one clear belief: capture stories, not just photographs. For the best part of ten years I’ve been helping people look and feel their best in front of the camera, creating images that reflect personality, mood and the small details that make every subject unique. Why choose me for portrait photography? I specialise in portraits as my core focus. Whether you book an in-studio session or prefer an on-location shoot, my aim is the same: to create relaxed, honest images with a strong visual narrative. I combine creative framing, considered lighting and attentive direction to produce portraits that feel authentic — not overly staged. I work with individuals, couples and creatives who want portraits with intention: images that are personal, polished and memorable. My approach is collaborative and calm. Before the session we’ll discuss style, wardrobe and the story you want your pictures to tell. On the day I guide posing with a gentle, precise style so you look natural and confident, while allowing spontaneous moments to surface. The atmosphere I create is friendly and professional — clients often tell me they felt at ease and enjoyed the experience, and that shows in the results. Business portraits and headshots are also part of my offering, though portrait work remains my primary focus. For professionals needing LinkedIn images, corporate headshots or personal brand portraits, I provide streamlined sessions that deliver sharp, approachable images suitable for profiles, websites and marketing materials. These sessions emphasise clarity and professionalism while keeping the same story-led sensibility. Every photograph receives careful post-production to enhance tone and polish without losing authenticity. I believe in Creativity, Attention & Flexibility — three principles that guide how I craft each portrait. If you’re in Enfield Lock or nearby and want portraits that genuinely reflect who you are, get in touch and let’s create something that will stand the test of time.
