Wendy Aldiss offers natural, award-winning portrait and headshot photography from a daylight studio near Marlow. Professional, relaxed sessions for business and personal portraits in High Wycombe.
I specialise in portrait photography — creating natural, honest images that feel like you. Based near Marlow in Buckinghamshire, I work regularly with clients from High Wycombe and the surrounding area, offering relaxed daylight studio sessions at Monkton Barn and on-location shoots that capture personality, warmth and presence. Why choose me for your portraits? With over twenty years of experience and a portfolio recognised by industry awards, I bring a calm, conversational approach that helps even the most camera-shy clients feel at ease. My aim is always to produce compelling, beautiful photographs that tell a story — whether that’s a professional headshot, a family portrait, a newborn shoot or a business portrait for a website or LinkedIn profile. I favour natural light and authentic moments, creating images that look timeless rather than overly styled. How I work with you: sessions are friendly and unhurried. In the studio we use soft, flattering daylight and simple, considered lighting to produce professional results; when you prefer a more personal backdrop we can move outdoors into the private meadows and bluebell woods around Monkton Barn. I guide poses in a gentle way, using conversation and small prompts to reveal natural expressions rather than forced smiles. For business headshots I focus on presenting your best professional self — clear, confident and approachable — while keeping the look true to who you are. I’m also experienced with baby and family portraiture and encourage including pets when it feels right. Newborn sessions are handled with care and a natural, non-posed style to capture those fleeting early moments. Beyond the shoot I take care with processing to build my signature look: warm, honest black-and-whites and vibrant colour where it matters. If you want prints, albums or framed artwork, I can advise on finishes and display options so your portraits bring daily pleasure at home or in the office. If you’re in High Wycombe or nearby and you’re looking for professional, natural portrait photography, I’d love to talk about your ideas and create images you’ll treasure.
