Little Vintage Photography in Liverpool specialises in timeless, analogue-inspired studio portraits and professional headshots. Specialist sessions that capture genuine character for personal and business use.
Little Vintage Photography is a specialist portrait studio in Liverpool dedicated to creating portraits that feel timeless, personal and beautifully crafted. As a portrait-focused practice, we place the subject — their story, presence and personality — at the heart of every session. Whether you need a relaxed studio portrait, a professional headshot for LinkedIn, or a striking business portrait, our work prioritises authenticity over formula. Our approach blends a vintage, analogue sensibility with modern portrait needs. We often draw on film and darkroom-inspired aesthetics to shape mood, light and texture, producing images that stand apart from typical commercial headshots. This is not about posing people into stiff templates; it’s about guiding and listening, creating a relaxed atmosphere where real expressions emerge. Clients tell us the studio feels calm and encouraging, which helps even camera-shy people relax and reveal their best selves. How we work: every portrait session begins with a short conversation to understand your goals — personal portraiture, professional branding, or a creative project. In the studio we combine attentive direction with unobtrusive observation so moments feel genuine. For business portraits and headshots we focus on clarity, flattering light and subtle styling to ensure your image reads well across profiles and professional platforms. For personal or creative portraits we lean into mood, texture and composition to craft something more cinematic and intimate. Beyond sessions, our darkroom and analogue roots influence the final images — from thoughtful framing and lighting choices to retouching that preserves character rather than erasing it. We also run occasional workshops for those curious about portrait craft and analogue techniques, offering a chance to learn about light, composition and the tactile aspects of image-making. Based in Liverpool’s creative quarter, Little Vintage Photography is the studio to choose if you want portrait work with personality, care and a distinctive aesthetic. We specialise in portraits first and foremost, and welcome enquiries for professional headshots and business portraits delivered with a considered, vintage-inspired touch.
