Specialist portrait photographer in Gillingham creating natural, confident studio portraits and headshots. I focus on relaxed sessions, genuine expressions and images that reflect your personality.
IVITAMAY photography is a portrait specialist based in Gillingham, focused on creating portraits that feel genuine, confident and unmistakably you. My work centres on one clear aim: to make the portrait experience relaxed and meaningful so the images reflect personality rather than posed perfection. Whether you need a studio portrait, a professional headshot or a striking LinkedIn photo, I bring a calm, conversational approach that helps even the most camera-shy clients feel at ease. What sets IVITAMAY photography apart is a commitment to authenticity. I favour natural expressions and subtle direction over rigid posing, so the final images convey presence and confidence. In the studio I control light and background to produce clean, timeless portraits, while the session itself is warm and unhurried—designed to let your character come through. My focus is on creating professional portraits and headshots that stand up across profiles, portfolios and personal branding without losing the human detail that makes each person unique. How I work: sessions are built around you. Before your shoot we discuss goals and style—whether you want a strong corporate headshot, a relaxed creative portrait, or a contemporary studio look. On the day, I guide you through simple, effective posing and adjustments to capture flattering angles and authentic moments. I pay close attention to lighting, expression and small details like posture and eye contact, which together shape a powerful portrait. The atmosphere is friendly and professional; many clients say it feels more like a conversation than a photoshoot. My passion for portrait photography comes from a love of people and storytelling. Each session is an opportunity to reveal something honest about the person in front of the lens. The result is a set of images that you can use with confidence—across professional profiles, personal portfolios and wherever a compelling portrait matters.
