Marge Bradshaw Photography

Marge Bradshaw specialises in portrait photography from her Horwich base, bringing a calm, honest approach to studio and professional headshots. Her work sits at the intersection of documentary sensitivity and careful studio craft: she looks for real expression and quiet moments, then uses considered lighting and composition to translate those moments into portraits that feel honest and well-polished. Why choose Marge for your portraits? She treats each session as a conversation rather than a checklist. Whether you need a confident business portrait for a LinkedIn profile or a relaxed studio portrait for personal use, Marge focuses on creating an atmosphere where people can relax and be themselves. That natural ease shows in the photographs — clean, purposeful images that represent you with warmth and authenticity. Her experience with business and brand photography informs her headshot work, so clients benefit from an understanding of how a portrait reads across professional contexts. Marge knows how to balance approachability with professionalism: subtle posing, flattering lighting and backgrounds that keep the focus on the subject. The result is a headshot that works across LinkedIn, company profiles and other business platforms without feeling staged. The process is straightforward and personable. Sessions are prepared with an initial conversation about objectives and tone, followed by a relaxed studio shoot where Marge guides rather than directs. She combines documentary instincts — noticing small gestures and expressions — with studio techniques to create portraits that are both spontaneous and carefully finished. Clients frequently comment on how comfortable they felt and how true the images feel to their personality. Marge’s portrait work also draws on her broader practice in family and documentary photography, giving her a sensitivity to storytelling and context that enriches each portrait session. She occasionally shares her approach through workshops and community projects, passing on practical tips about presence in front of the camera and making portraits that matter. Based in Horwich, Marge offers portrait sessions tailored to individuals and professionals across Greater Britain. If you want a portrait or headshot that reflects who you are — honest, considered and distinctly human — she provides a calm, expert environment to make that happen.
