Headshots for Camden actors, profiles and company websites

  • What is included: Clear direction on posture, expression and angle, frames reviewed together as you go, and carefully retouched finals delivered web-ready and print-ready.
  • Where we photograph in Camden: Your office or workplace, for example around Camden Market, Camden Collective or Greater London House, or outdoors nearby for a more relaxed look. We travel from Northwood, about 11 miles away. If you would ever rather come to us, the Northwood studio is an option.
  • To book: Call 07956 505383, send a WhatsApp message to the same number, or use the enquiry form on this page.

A single headshot takes about a quarter of an hour of actual shooting. We show you frames as we go, because most people correct their own posture faster from a picture than from instruction.

You receive retouched files cropped square and wide, sized for a company page and for print. We keep the lighting and background notes on file, so anyone hired later can be photographed to the same recipe and the row of faces still matches. It saves reshooting the whole team later.

It was a pleasure working with Kaushik who managed to help me at short notice to provide official photos for professional use at very short notice and was able to support me whilst abroad. Thanks and would highly recommend their services.

Samir S., Google review, 2021

…Kaushik knows his stuff and is very friendly and helpful, ready to go that extra mile to provide a really good service. He made us feel relaxed, comfortable and very much at home throughout the session - these details are so important to help you look your best. I would have no hesitation in recommending Kaushik to anyone looking to have great photographs taken.

Mehul S., Google review, 2014

I had an amazing experience with Kaushik Bathia. They were professional, friendly, and made me feel completely comfortable during the shoot. The photos came out beautifully — natural, vibrant, and exactly what I hoped for. Highly recommend

Good to know

Headshot Photographer in Camden, FAQs

Yes, and naturally so. Shine is reduced and stray hairs tidied, but your face is left as it is. The finished headshot should look professional and refined rather than heavily processed.

Yes. Send the headcount and a running order beforehand, since venues and market units rarely have a spare room all day. Book everyone into a single session rather than several, so the frames match.

Yes, both, and each sitting is set up differently. A business or LinkedIn headshot for someone working in Camden is kept polished but approachable, while actor headshots stay natural and full of character for casting. Say which kind you need and the sitting is planned around it.

When the diary permits, absolutely. A casting call or a new role can come out of nowhere, so we try hard to find an early slot for urgent headshots. Send the dates that suit you and we will tell you what is possible.

The cost depends on whether it is one headshot, a personal-branding session or a whole team day in NW1, and travel from Northwood is set out in your written quote before you book. Tell us roughly what you need and we will reply with clear prices and no obligation.

Serving Camden

A headshot photographer near Camden

We photograph headshot sessions across London, and Camden, in Greater London, is about 11 miles from Northwood. It sits close to Islington and Westminster, which we cover too.

Camden Town station, where the Northern line's Edgware and High Barnet branches join, helps when colleagues are coming in from other offices on the day of a team shoot. Camden Collective, run by the Camden Town Unlimited business group, gives start-ups free hot-desking space in vacant buildings, and a new venture there may well need founder headshots for its website and pitch deck. Camden Town is strongly associated with alternative culture and live music, worth bearing in mind if you are a performer who wants a headshot with some character.

The same photographer, experience and personal care apply to every service we offer in Camden. We also cover headshot photography across London, including Hounslow, Greenwich, Brent, Richmond upon Thames, Haringey and Sutton.

Two stations serve the area, Camden Town on the Northern line and Camden Road on the London Overground, and for anyone travelling to a fixed appointment that redundancy matters more than it sounds. A headshot is a fixed slot rather than a flexible afternoon, and a second station within walking distance means a closure or a queue at one entrance does not cost you the sitting. In Camden the convention the picture has to satisfy can vary widely. In a borough known for its markets and live music heritage, with the Roundhouse among its arts venues, many working people need a portrait that may end up in a listing, a programme or a press release rather than a corporate directory. Those two conventions pull in opposite directions. Directory portraits want a plain, even, unremarkable background and a crop tight to the shoulders, and they are judged on whether the face is legible. Editorial and arts portraits tolerate, and usually want, more of the person: hands in the frame, a wider crop, harder light with real shadow left in it. Decide which of the two you need before the session rather than after, because lighting built for one does not convert into the other later.
