Nikolai Photographer

My name is Nikolai and portrait photography is at the heart of what I do in Larkhall. For over eight years I’ve been drawn to vivid, sincere images that feel honest and alive — photographs that families and professionals return to again and again. I’ve been fortunate to receive international recognition and local acclaim, and every session is focused on delivering an absolutely incredible client experience from start to finish. Why choose me for your portrait? I specialise in creating portraits and headshots that look natural, confident and personal. Whether you need a compelling professional portrait for a portfolio or LinkedIn, or a relaxed family portrait that captures real connection, my goal is the same: to produce images that feel like you. I pay close attention to clothing, composition and locations so each image sits harmoniously with your personality and purpose. My approach is calm and collaborative. Before the shoot we’ll discuss the look you want and the best place to create it — many clients prefer a relaxed session at home or a nearby location where they feel comfortable. On the day I work to put you at ease, guiding poses and interactions so moments feel spontaneous rather than staged. Every portrait is then carefully edited and professionally retouched to ensure a polished, natural final image. I understand the importance of timeliness and clarity: finished images are delivered via a private web gallery for easy sharing and use, with swift turnaround so you can start using your portraits quickly. I treat each story as individual and important — your portrait session will be tailored to what matters most to you. Based in Larkhall and serving clients across Scotland, I’m passionate about making portrait photography a relaxed, meaningful experience. If you value expressive, authentic portraits handled with professional care, I’d love to hear about your project and help you capture the images that matter.
