Adam Hollingworth is a Hove-based portrait specialist offering professional headshots and creative portraits for actors, musicians and business leaders. Collaborative studio or on-location shoots with professional lighting.
I’m Adam Hollingworth — a portrait specialist based in Hove, GB, dedicated to making professional portraits that feel genuine and purposeful. With over a decade of commercial experience and a studio equipped for creative still-life and portrait work, I focus on headshot photography and portraiture for actors, musicians, entrepreneurs and business leaders who need images that tell their story. My approach is simple: put people at ease and create images that work hard for you. Whether you need a confident LinkedIn photo, a refined business portrait for your company website, or a concept portrait that reflects an artistic practice, I tailor each shoot to the personality and purpose of the subject. I bring a collaborative mindset to every session — discussing vision, testing lighting, and offering on-site proofing so you can see results as we work. The studio in Hove gives me the controlled environment to craft professional portraits with careful lighting, considered backgrounds and a selection of props when appropriate. I also offer a portable studio set-up for on-location and workplace sessions, minimising disruption while delivering consistent, high-quality headshots for teams and individuals. My aim is to combine technical precision with an easy-going atmosphere so even camera-shy clients leave with images they’re proud to share. Style-wise I favour authentic, natural expressions over overly posed looks. That honest, approachable aesthetic translates well for corporate profiles and creative portfolios alike. My experience working with clients across Brighton, the South East and the UK means I can adapt quickly to different briefs and environments, from tight studio spaces to dynamic on-site shoots. Beyond taking pictures, I’m meticulous about detail — from lighting and composition to colour and retouching — because professional portraits should be ready to use across LinkedIn, press, websites and printed material. I’ve refined a workflow that keeps the process clear and efficient: a short pre-shoot briefing, a relaxed shoot with on-site selection, and careful post-production tailored to your needs. If you’re in Hove or the surrounding area and need headshot photography or a fresh professional portrait, get in touch and we’ll talk through the best way to capture the image you need. I love creating portraits that people can’t wait to show the world.
