Actor-trained portrait specialist in Isleworth offering relaxed studio headshots and professional business portraits. Will focuses on authentic expression and casting-ready images in a friendly Twickenham studio.
Will Gillham is a specialist portrait photographer based in Isleworth with a studio in Twickenham — a photographer who understands performance because he trained and worked as an actor. That background gives Will a practical knowledge of what casting directors and recruiters look for, and it informs a supportive, conversational approach that helps clients relax and show their true selves. Sessions are designed around you. Whether you need a casting-ready headshot, a LinkedIn-ready business portrait, or a professional portfolio image, Will focuses on natural expression, honest lighting and uncomplicated direction. He believes the best portraits come when people are enjoying themselves, so his sessions are paced to suit your comfort level: playful when you want energy, calm when you need subtlety. Small touches — a bright studio, a selection of teas and Orpheus the studio cat’s friendly hello — help put clients at ease from the moment they arrive. Will’s process is straightforward and collaborative. Before the session he discusses the look you want and the practical uses of your images, so every frame serves its purpose. During the shoot he gives clear, actor-informed direction to find authentic moments, then shares previews so you can be involved in choosing the final images. The result is professional headshots and business portraits that are both true to you and tailored for casting, corporate profiles, or promotional use. Local to Isleworth and Twickenham, Will offers indoor studio sessions and carefully chosen local outdoor options when a different backdrop is required. His emphasis is on creating reliable, high-quality portrait images that work hard for your career — from casting calls to corporate profiles. If you’d like a relaxed, expert-led session that produces confident, usable portraits, Will is ready to help you look your best in images that open doors.
