Paul Holland Photography specialises in portrait and professional headshot sessions from a modern studio on Highgate, Kendal. Relaxed, expert portraits tailored for personal or business use.
Paul Holland Photography is a specialist portrait studio based on Highgate in Kendal, serving the Lake District and Cumbria. Paul’s focus is simple: to create honest, relaxed portraits that show the real you. As a full‑time professional photographer who loves photographing people, Paul brings a calm, conversational approach that helps even camera‑shy clients feel at ease. Whether you want studio portraits, natural on‑location images or professional business headshots, Paul treats each session as a collaboration. He begins with an informal conversation about the look and feel you want—style, wardrobe and final use—so every image supports how you want to present yourself. Studio shoots benefit from controlled lighting and a large, modern space on Highgate; location sessions make use of the Lake District’s varied backdrops for more lifestyle and environmental portraits. Paul is experienced in portfolio and head shot photography for professionals, actors, models and business clients. He understands the technical requirements agencies and LinkedIn demand and designs sessions to deliver crisp, flattering images that work across print and digital platforms. Professional portraits from Paul are carefully edited, colour balanced and prepared so you receive polished files suitable for profiles, CVs and marketing materials. The atmosphere at a Paul Holland portrait session is friendly and relaxed. Paul focuses on natural moments and genuine expressions rather than stiff poses, encouraging interaction and small prompts that produce authentic smiles and confident looks. After the shoot you can expect thoughtful editing and guidance on selecting final images and artwork. Choosing Paul Holland Photography means working with a Kendal‑based specialist who values individuality and craft.
