Hayling Island portrait studio specialising in natural, professional portraits and business headshots. Julia creates a relaxed, conversational session and delivers polished images for LinkedIn and websites.
I’m Julia — a portrait photographer based on Hayling Island who loves making people feel at ease in front of the camera. With more than 18 years’ experience and a background in commercial and lifestyle work, I specialise in professional portraits and business headshots that look natural, confident and completely usable across websites, LinkedIn and marketing materials. Why choose me? I combine a warm, conversational approach with an editorial eye. My aim is to capture authentic expressions and subtle personality — not stiff poses. Whether you prefer the controlled calm of a portrait studio session or the relaxed energy of an on-location shoot, I guide you gently through the session so even the most camera-shy clients leave feeling happy and impressed with the results. How I work: every portrait begins with a short chat about your goals — the look you want, where the images will be used, and any wardrobe or background ideas. On the day I create a calm, friendly atmosphere and offer clear direction so you can relax and be yourself. After the session I carefully edit each image for colour, tone and basic retouching, then deliver them in a private online gallery you can share and download from quickly. My clients value a straightforward, professional service: honest advice, creative styling when required, and fast turnaround. I carry full insurance and treat every session with the same attention to detail I bring to my commercial work. If you need a specific format for corporate profiles, author headshots, or personal branding images for social media and websites, I’ll tailor the shoot to suit your brief. If you’re looking for a Hayling Island portrait photographer who keeps things friendly, efficient and beautifully crafted, let’s talk. I love collaborating with individuals and businesses to create portraits that tell a story — yours.
