Frames go straight to a screen as we shoot, so the expression is chosen with you in the room instead of sent off for approval a week later. Most people are there within a handful of frames once the first few have settled the nerves.
You leave with a retouched file at the sizes a profile and a press page ask for, plus the untouched original in case a template wants its own crop. Retouching stops at skin, stray hair and collars, and the face stays recognisably the face.

Good to know
Truly, yes, and most people who visit us in Barking and Dagenham say the very same thing beforehand. With twenty-five years of gentle, clear guidance behind us, we relax anxious sitters quickly, and the natural expression we find usually comes as a happy surprise.
It comes down to what you need. One professional headshot is quick, frequently around twenty minutes in front of the camera, whereas personal-branding and full team bookings in Barking and Dagenham run longer. Either way, we hold a calm, comfortable pace rather than hurrying you.
You choose alongside us as we review the frames, and we retouch the ones you love. A typical Barking and Dagenham headshot booking hands over one or two final images, whereas personal-branding sittings and team days include a larger set to match their wider purpose.
Absolutely, feel free. Bringing a couple of extra outfits creates helpful variety, above all for personal-branding work where a few looks help your photos suit different platforms. Whether you visit Barking and Dagenham or we come to you, we will advise which changes are worthwhile.
Yes, and we cover Ilford, Rainham and Chadwell Heath alongside Barking and Dagenham. On site we bring lights, stands and a background, so we need a room we can darken a little and a few metres of clear floor. The alternative is the studio at The Broadway, 21 Joel St, Northwood HA6, which is usually simpler for one or two people. For a team, send us photographs of the room first.
Serving Barking and Dagenham
We photograph headshot sessions right across London, and Barking and Dagenham (Greater London) is well within our regular patch. It sits close to Newham and Redbridge, which we cover too. You are always welcome at the Northwood studio too.
An east London borough by the river Roding, home to the Becontree estate, one of the largest council-built estates in the world. Barking station serves the District, Hammersmith and City and c2c lines, with the A13 running through the borough into central London. Barking Abbey ruins and the 15th century Curfew Tower beside St Margaret's Church is a well-known local landmark in the area.

Barking station carries the District, the Hammersmith and City and c2c, and the A13 runs through the borough into central London. Three rail routes and a trunk road all pointing the same way describe the working population better than any survey could: a great many people here are employed in central London and travel into it daily. That matters for a headshot, because the picture will not hang alone. It sits on a company page beside colleagues photographed in a studio in the middle of town, and it either matches that convention or it reads as the odd one out. The convention is narrow. A plain background, controlled light, the camera set a little above the middle of the face, a crop that still works when the site reduces it to a circle the width of a fingernail, and no sun, no foliage, no park. All of which argues for coming to us rather than us coming to the office: the studio at The Broadway, 21 Joel St, Northwood HA6 produces that background and that light every time, and the weather gets no vote. It is a cross London journey rather than a local hop, so we would take a slot away from the morning and evening peaks. Arriving unhurried shows in the shoulders and the jaw more plainly than anything that can be corrected afterwards. Bring two shirts, one plain and one with a collar that holds its shape, and shave or make up as for a working day rather than an evening out.
