Edinburgh-based portrait specialist Lee (JARRED) crafts professional studio and on-location portraits and business headshots. Calm, collaborative shoots that reveal personality for LinkedIn and company use.
I’m Lee JARRED Howell — known in the industry simply as JARRED — and I specialise in portrait photography from my base in Edinburgh. My work is driven by one simple aim: to capture a small, telling insight into who a person really is. Whether you need a confident LinkedIn headshot, a relaxed corporate portrait or a purposeful on-location image for your business profile, my approach is tailored to make the experience calm, creative and effective. Why choose JARRED Photography in Edinburgh? I bring the creative instincts of a commercial image-maker together with a studio-honed technical practice. Clients tell me they value the way I help people feel at ease in front of the camera; this relaxed atmosphere produces natural expressions and authentic portraits that perform well online and in printed materials. I work with a focused retouching workflow so final images are polished without losing character. What makes my approach special is collaboration. I treat each portrait session as a small creative project: we discuss intent, mood and how the images will be used before we shoot. That means every headshot or business portrait is conceived with purpose — whether for a LinkedIn profile, company website, press material or personal brand. I combine considered lighting and composition with subtle direction to help you look confident and approachable. How I work: sessions can be studio-based in Edinburgh — using clean, versatile lighting setups — or on location if a particular environment better suits your brand. I’ll guide posing and expression in a friendly, no-pressure way and capture a variety of looks so you have options. After the shoot I provide professional retouching and prepare imagery optimised for web and print. My photography values creativity, clarity and collaboration. If you want professional portraits or business headshots that reveal personality and work hard for your brand, I’d love to talk.
