Teresa Walton is a specialist portrait photographer in Harlesden, GB, known for relaxed, natural studio portraits and polished retouching. She coaches you in front of the camera to create authentic, professional images.
I specialise in portrait photography because getting the portrait right is about more than lighting and lenses — it’s about people. Based in Harlesden, GB, I bring a calm, coaching-led approach that helps even the most camera-shy clients relax and reveal their authentic selves. Whether you need a striking personal portrait, a professional business image or a headshot for LinkedIn, I focus on honest, truthful pictures that feel like you — only at your very best. My style is modern and natural. I don’t ask anyone to smile on cue; instead I guide expressions, posture and small movements to capture warmth, authority or character depending on your brief. Trained with established industry mentors and experienced in photographing presenters, executives and performers, I place huge value on the human connection that makes a portrait memorable. Clients appreciate that I take time: we review images together during the session, refine the look and only finish once we’ve achieved something we both love. Retouching is an important part of my service but remains deliberately subtle. My philosophy is ‘less is more’ — I make numerous small adjustments that add up to a polished, true-to-life finish without changing who you are. Expert editing is offered as a complementary skill to the portrait work and ensures your final images are ready for print, web use and social profiles. Working with me is straightforward and supportive. I’ll guide you on how to prepare, advise on clothing and styling, and can arrange professional hair & make-up if required. During the studio session you’ll see images on-screen as we go, choose your favourites, and we’ll agree the retouching together. Final images are delivered in multiple sizes so they’re ready for LinkedIn, websites and print. If you value a portrait photographer who specialises in people-first studio photography and thoughtful, expert editing, let’s talk. My aim is simple: to make you feel comfortable, capture your personality and deliver professional portraits that build confidence and communicate who you really are.
