Specialist portrait photographer in Folkestone — Alan Duncan creates professional headshots and business portraits in studio or on location, with careful retouching for a confident image.
Alan Duncan brings decades of photographic experience to portrait work from his base near Folkestone in Hythe. Having trained and worked across aerial, travel and commercial photography, Alan has a practiced eye for composition, natural light and decisive moments — qualities he now applies to creating striking, professional portraits and headshots. Why choose Alan Duncan Photography for your portrait? Alan’s approach is quietly collaborative: he aims to put subjects at ease, whether the session is a studio headshot or an on-location business portrait. His background shooting PR and corporate assignments means he understands the visual language organisations need — confident LinkedIn headshots, atmospheric editorial portraits or polished executive images that work across websites and press material. What makes the service different is the blend of technical craft and considered retouching. Alan offers careful digital finishing that enhances skin tones, removes distractions and retains a natural, authentic look — drawing on the same restoration and editing skills showcased elsewhere in his work. Sessions are run with professionalism and courtesy, with simple, clear guidance on poses and expressions so even camera-shy clients leave with strong, usable images. How the process works: a short pre-shoot conversation establishes the brief and preferred style (clean corporate, relaxed environmental portrait, or more creative editorial). Sessions can be staged in his studio or taken on location around Folkestone and the surrounding South East — whichever best serves the brief. After the shoot, images are professionally edited and supplied quickly via digital delivery for use on websites, social media and marketing materials. Alan’s varied photographic background — from commercial commissions to PR events — means he knows how to capture people in authentic, purposeful ways. If you need professional headshots, business portraits for company profiles or strong editorial portraits for publicity, Alan Duncan Photography in Folkestone offers a straightforward, expert service focused on results that look confident and true to the subject.
