Frome-based portrait specialist Shanie Leanne Photography creates relaxed studio portraits that feel natural and confident. Personalized sessions focus on expression, warmth, and timeless results.
Shanie Leanne Photography is a dedicated portrait specialist based in Frome, offering a calm, professional studio experience designed to reveal the real you. With a focus solely on portrait work, Shanie approaches each session as an opportunity to create honest, timeless images that reflect personality, mood and presence rather than posing people into one-size-fits-all looks. Why choose Shanie? The difference lies in a gentle, people-first approach. Sessions are crafted to be relaxed and unhurried: a pre-shoot conversation sets expectations and explores what you want to communicate through your portrait, then the session itself balances subtle direction with space for natural expression. The result is imagery that looks effortless because the atmosphere felt that way — warm, reassuring and personal. Shanie’s studio practice values light, simplicity and connection. She uses flattering studio lighting and thoughtful composition to bring focus to the subject’s face and expression, working with textures, tones and minimal backdrops so nothing distracts from the person in front of the lens. Whether you want a classic, formal portrait or something more intimate and creative, every image is made with clarity and care. The process is collaborative from start to finish. Clients receive guidance on wardrobe and styling that suits the studio setting, coaching on posture and expression so even those who dislike being photographed feel comfortable, and a patient, encouraging presence throughout the session. After the shoot, images are carefully curated and edited to enhance the natural qualities of each portrait while maintaining authenticity and emotional truth. Serving Frome and the surrounding area, Shanie Leanne Photography combines technical skill with a genuine love for faces and stories. If you’re looking for a portrait experience that prioritises comfort, character and images you’ll want to keep and share for years, Shanie provides a thoughtful studio environment and portraits with lasting impact.
