Based in Frome, Ginger & Black Photography specialises in intimate studio portraits. We create calm, natural sessions that reveal personality and deliver timeless, character-rich images you'll love.
Ginger & Black Photography is a Frome-based portrait studio devoted to making portraits that feel honest, composed and unmistakably yours. As specialists in portrait photography, we focus on creating an atmosphere where people relax, connect and show their true character — the small gestures and subtle expressions that turn a photograph into something memorable. Our approach centres on simplicity and collaboration. Sessions are calm and unhurried: we take time to talk, to find flattering light and to position you in ways that feel comfortable rather than posed. That steady, personal rhythm helps even camera-shy subjects settle in and allows genuine expressions to emerge. The result is studio portraits with real presence — timeless, character-driven images you’ll be proud to display. In the studio we prioritise quality and intention. We use considered lighting, careful composition and a restrained aesthetic that keeps the focus on the person in front of the lens. Colour, tone and backdrop are chosen to enhance mood and personality, not to distract from it. Each image is crafted with an eye for detail so that the finished portraits communicate warmth, strength and authenticity. Working with Ginger & Black Photography is a simple, friendly process. From an initial conversation about your goals to the portrait session itself, we aim to make every step straightforward and enjoyable. We listen to what matters to you — whether you want a classic, studio portrait or something with a softer, more natural feel — and guide the session to capture that vision. Our priority is to create a relaxed setting where the best moments can be noticed and preserved. Photography is how we celebrate people: the unique ways they look, the stories their expressions tell, and the emotions that surface in quiet moments. If you’re in Frome or the surrounding area and want studio portraits that reflect who you are, Ginger & Black Photography offers a thoughtful, personalised experience built around creating images with heart and honesty.
