Specialist portrait studio in Kidderminster offering light-sculpted portraits and professional headshots. Sam & Jane Southall create relaxed, confident images with full posing guidance and VIP viewing sessions.
My Physique Photographer is a portrait specialist based in Kidderminster, Worcestershire — led by Sam and Jane Southall. With over two decades of professional experience and a studio purpose-built for light sculpted portraiture, Sam brings technical mastery and creative lighting to every session. We are people photographers: friendly, professional and committed to making you look — and feel — your best. We specialise in portrait work that reveals character and strength. Whether you want powerful physique portraits, a polished headshot for LinkedIn, or personal branding images that tell your story, our approach centres on controlled, dramatic lighting (our trademark light‑sculpting) and clear direction. Sam guides you through poses and expressions throughout the shoot so even those who feel camera‑shy quickly relax and enjoy the process. Sessions take place in our fully equipped private studio in Kidderminster. Jane manages the studio experience and ensures every detail runs smoothly — from booking to the VIP Viewing Session where you choose your favourite images and decide on prints, albums, wall art or digital files. For clients who want a complete look we can arrange our professional makeup artist, Kay, and offer the option to bring a personal trainer to help with pumping and muscle definition. We pride ourselves on producing portraits that last: carefully retouched, beautifully printed or supplied as high‑resolution files for whatever use you need. Many clients return to us for promotional work and personal branding because we understand how to craft images that perform across social media, portfolios and marketing materials. While portraiture is our core specialism, we also provide business and promotional portraits when customers need images for websites, profiles or branded content. From the first conversation to the finished piece of wall art or headshot, our goal is to create a relaxed, enjoyable session with professional results and a fast turnaround. We welcome clients from across the West Midlands and beyond — if you’re local to Kidderminster or travelling from Birmingham, Worcestershire, Herefordshire or Shropshire, we’ll make it easy to get the look you’ve worked for. Call Jane to discuss your portrait needs and book a private studio session with My Physique Photographer.
