Focus Studio in Washwood Heath is a specialist portrait studio. Bal Basra creates relaxed, studio-quality portraits and professional headshots that capture your true character.
Focus Studio is a dedicated portrait studio in Washwood Heath, where portrait photography is the core of everything we do. Led by Bal Basra, a professional photographer with over twenty-five years’ experience, Focus Studio combines technical skill with a warm, community-minded approach. As a family-run business that has served local families for decades, we understand how important a portrait can be — a keepsake, a professional representation or a fresh image for your LinkedIn profile. Why choose Focus Studio for your portrait? Because we specialise. Portraits are our primary focus: from classic studio headshots to more relaxed, personal sessions, we concentrate on making you look and feel like yourself. Bal’s gentle, conversational style puts even the camera-shy at ease, letting real expressions surface naturally. We use studio-quality equipment and refined lighting techniques to deliver images that are beautifully lit, flattering and true to your personality. What makes our approach special is the balance of craft and care. Technical excellence—lighting, composition and expert retouching—is matched by an emphasis on atmosphere. Sessions are calm, unhurried and tailored to you. Before the shoot we discuss how you plan to use the images so we can shape the session: formal headshots for business, contemporary portraits for personal branding, or relaxed studio portraits for family memories. While portrait photography is our speciality, we also provide professional business headshots and studio portraits designed for corporate profiles and online presence. How we work with you: simple, friendly and professional. We start with a short consultation to understand your goals and style. On the day, we guide you through posture, expression and small adjustments so the best moments emerge naturally. After the shoot we carefully edit and refine the selected images to enhance tone and clarity while preserving your authentic look. Your final portraits are delivered in high-resolution formats ready for print and online use. At Focus Studio our passion is photography and our pride is in the relationships we build. Whether you want a confident headshot for work or a timeless studio portrait, Bal and the team bring experience, patience and creativity to every session. Visit us in Washwood Heath and let Focus Studio capture the portrait that truly represents you.
