Many sessions include professional hair and make‑up, wardrobe styling and a pre‑session consultation so every detail supports the vision for your portrait. Magdalena offers makeover and boudoir-style portrait sessions as well as classic studio and outdoor portraits — always tailored to the individual. The result is a collection of retouched, ready-to-use images ideal for business profiles, personal branding, family keepsakes or framed fine art pieces. How the portrait experience works: you start with a friendly consultation to discuss style and objectives. On the day, the studio team helps with makeup and wardrobe; Magdalena guides posing, expression and connection so your images feel genuine. After the shoot your edited portraits are presented at a viewing appointment (typically a few weeks later) where you choose the final images. Every selected photograph receives professional retouching to ensure a polished, timeless finish. Magdalena is an award‑winning portrait photographer who loves creating magical worlds in her pictures. Feather and moss Photography specialises in portrait and professional headshot work across Hindley and the surrounding Manchester/Wigan area.
