Tom Grace Portraits

Tom Grace is a Furzedown-based portrait specialist whose practice centres on creating focused, relaxed and tailored studio portraits. With a background in acting and years producing photographic and video work for arts organisations and brands, Tom brings a performer's sensitivity and a producer’s efficiency to every session. The result is professional portraits that look natural, on-brand and easy to use across websites, LinkedIn and marketing materials. What sets Tom apart is his approach: shoots are guided but low-pressure, designed to put even camera-shy clients at ease. Whether you need a crisp business portrait, a contemporary headshot or a polished LinkedIn photo, Tom works with you to find the pose, expression and backdrop that reflect your professional identity. Sessions are tailored to your brief — studio-controlled lighting for a refined look, or on-location setups that use your workplace or local environment as a meaningful backdrop. Practical, client-focused delivery is part of the service. You’ll see the photos quickly via an online gallery where images can be reviewed and selected, and final retouched files are prepared to publish-ready standards. Tom’s emphasis on speed and quality means your team or personal portraits are ready for use across digital and print channels with minimal fuss. Because Tom started in theatre and founded a visual media company before launching his portrait work, he understands both the creative and logistical sides of a shoot. He spends time preparing and scouting where appropriate, and his relaxed, conversational style helps subjects find authentic expressions rather than forced smiles. This combination of theatrical empathy and technical know-how produces portraits that are both honest and highly professional. If you’re in Furzedown or elsewhere in the UK and need a specialist portrait photographer who prioritises authenticity, clarity and a smooth experience, Tom Grace delivers. He specialises in professional portraits and business headshots, offering tailored shoots that balance speed, comfort and publish-ready quality.
