Whether you need a confident headshot for LinkedIn, a business portrait that represents your brand, or a personal portrait that feels authentic, Trafford Photography positions portraiture at the heart of everything they do. Why choose Trafford Photography? Because portraiture is their core. The approach is calm, considered and client-centred: sessions are designed to put you at ease so the images feel natural rather than staged. The photographer’s practiced eye for composition, expression and presence helps bring out genuine moments—images that work across professional profiles, company websites and personal portfolios. The process is straightforward and focused on collaboration. Before the session you’ll be guided on simple preparation and what to expect; during the shoot the emphasis is on clear direction, relaxed conversation and small, purposeful adjustments to capture looks that suit your goals. Trafford Photography balances polished professionalism with a friendly atmosphere so even those new to studio portraits leave feeling comfortable and confident with their images. For business clients the photographer understands how a single portrait can shape first impressions. Headshots and business portraits are tailored to the context you need—company bio pages, social media profiles, press materials or marketing assets—always with an eye to consistency, clarity and a timeless look that supports your professional image. While portrait photography is the primary focus, Trafford Photography also accepts occasional animal sessions. These are treated with the same patience and attention to character that define their portrait work, but the studio’s main emphasis remains on people-centred portraiture. Rooted in Kirkby in Ashfield, Trafford Photography combines local understanding with a specialist portrait practice. The result is a calm studio experience and a set of professional portraits that genuinely reflect who you are and what you want to convey.
