Ginny Koppenhol Photography

Ginny Koppenhol is a Lancaster-based portrait specialist who creates colourful, characterful and impactful images for people and businesses. Her work is rooted in a simple belief: professional portraits should capture connection — with yourself, with others, and with the life or work you care about. Whether you need a confident headshot for LinkedIn, a striking business portrait for your website, or a creative studio portrait that shows your personality, Ginny brings a practiced, playful eye and a calm, conversational approach. Why choose Ginny? She blends a creative portrait photographer’s sensitivity to light, colour and composition with the warmth of someone used to making people feel at ease in front of the camera. Her portraits are not about stiff poses; they’re about collaboration. Through a relaxed pre-shoot conversation she learns what matters to you — your values, the story you want to tell, and the visual tone that best represents you or your brand. That understanding shapes every choice on the day: location, styling, background and the small prompts that help natural expressions to surface. Her approach is practical and people-centred. Ginny creates a friendly atmosphere where clients soon forget the camera is there, producing moments that feel genuine and alive. For business clients she focuses on the human side of branding: portraits that build trust, convey credibility and work across websites, social media and printed materials. For individuals she crafts studio and on-location portraits that are distinctive, confident and full of character. Ginny also takes care with professionalism and consent. She communicates clearly about how images will be used, and aims to create inclusive sessions where everyone can participate comfortably. After the shoot she carefully selects and edits images to retain colour, energy and authenticity so your final portraits look superb across all formats. Based in Lancaster and working across North Lancashire and the South Lakes, Ginny is positioned as a portrait expert for people and businesses who want more than a bland headshot. If you value creative, characterful photography and a collaborative, relaxed process, Ginny offers portrait studio and on-location sessions designed to produce work you’ll be proud to share. (She also runs occasional photography workshops and smartphone courses for those who want to explore photography themselves.)
