Glenn Adams Photo

I’m Glenn Adams — a portrait specialist based in King’s Lynn, working across West Norfolk and Cambridgeshire. Portrait photography is at the heart of what I do: studio and on-location sessions that put people at ease and produce honest, characterful images. Whether you need a confident LinkedIn headshot, a creative personal portrait, or a professional studio portrait, I focus on capturing the real person behind the pose. My approach is informed by a decade-plus of practice and a background in analogue photography. I still experiment in the darkroom, build handmade cameras and explore alternative processes — that curiosity filters into my portrait work. It means I bring a considered eye for tone, texture and atmosphere, whether I’m shooting digitally in the studio or working more creatively with mixed processes. The result is portraits that feel crafted, not canned. I like to keep sessions relaxed, conversational and focused on getting natural moments. I work gently and confidently with people who are nervous in front of the camera, guiding small interactions and prompts rather than forcing long, awkward poses. For business portraits and professional headshots I help you present the version of yourself that suits your role — approachable and professional for LinkedIn, or bolder and more stylised if that’s your brief. For personal portraits I enjoy exploring mood, light and environment to create something with personality and depth. Beyond individual portraits, I bring teaching and studio experience to every shoot. Years spent lecturing and running workshops have taught me how to structure a session so it’s productive and enjoyable — clear direction, quick technical setup and time for experimentation. I offer straightforward, friendly communication from booking to delivery, ensuring your images match the intention we set out together. If you’re in King’s Lynn or the surrounding area and searching for a portrait photographer who blends analogue sensibility with modern studio practice, let’s talk. I specialise in portrait work first and foremost, and also offer business portrait shoots as a complementary service. Together we’ll create professional headshots or personal portraits that feel authentic and wearable across your professional or creative life.
