Glasgow-based portrait studio specialising in fine art, contemporary and glamour portraits for women and children. Kate crafts relaxed, timeless images and offers professional headshots.
I’m Kate Skonieczna, a portrait photographer based in Glasgow who loves creating fine art, contemporary and glamour portraits that reveal how beautiful and confident you are. Portraits are my core focus — from intimate children’s images to striking women’s portraits — and every session is shaped around the idea that your photograph should feel priceless. My approach is calm, conversational and deliberate. I aim to make you feel like a supermodel for the day, guiding poses, lighting and styling so you look natural, composed and utterly yourself. I blend classic fine art lighting with contemporary sensibilities to produce images with mood, depth and a timeless quality. The result is flattering, authentic portraits that work beautifully on walls, in folio boxes or online galleries. Why choose me in Glasgow? Over years of practice and further fine art portrait training, I’ve developed a gentle but confident process that helps even camera-shy clients relax. I value preparation and attention to detail — from selecting backdrops and subtle props to thoughtful post-production and retouching — so your final images feel considered and finished. My work has been recognised in portrait competitions and refined through dedicated workshops, all feeding into a polished studio experience. How I work: we begin with a short conversation about your vision and styling, then I prepare the studio to suit that mood — light and luxurious or darker, vintage-inspired looks depending on your preference. During the session I coach, encourage and adapt to how you move and express yourself, capturing both posed and candid moments. After the shoot I professionally edit and present your images in a private online gallery where you can choose the portraits that speak to you. Alongside portrait photography, I also offer professional headshots and business portraits for those who want a polished LinkedIn photo or corporate image — provided in the same thoughtful, studio-led manner. If you’re in Glasgow and ready to take time for yourself, I would love to photograph you and deliver the most beautiful portrait you’ve ever seen of yourself.
