Serving Chorleywood
We take headshots for people in Chorleywood, Heronsgate and Rickmansworth, either at the Northwood studio or at your own desk. The Metropolitan line serves both Chorleywood and Northwood Hills, so reaching the studio needs no change of train. If you work in London, your photograph may have to sit beside colleagues' headshots taken elsewhere without looking like the odd one out.
The craft point is background tone. A face reads sharper against ground a shade darker than the skin, and we set that on the day rather than replacing it later. Grey, white and black are all available at the studio, and outdoors we pick the wall or the shade that behaves like one.

Perfect place to get headshot or passport photos taken! High quality, great speed, professional, edited to perfection.
Thank you for the photos taken for my son's lookbook. They are fantastic!
I went the studio for the photoshoot and Mr Batia is proffessional, courteous ,efficient and cheerful. I love my photos and will come again. Highly recommend.
What we offer
Studio headshots at the Northwood room, on the same Metropolitan line as Chorleywood station.
On site headshots at your own premises, lit with our own kit so every face matches the last.
Team sets kept consistent, so a starter photographed months later still belongs on the same page.
Local and experienced
Allow forty minutes. We take the version your employer expects first and get it safe, then try the ones worth having: a wider crop for the website, a plain ground for anywhere that insists on one, a frame with room beside the head for a banner.
You approve each look on screen before we move on. Retouched files come at the sizes each platform wants, and the setup is noted so a later joiner can be matched to the same set.

Good to know
Fairly quickly. Retouched headshots usually reach you within a few days, and a tight deadline can be prioritised. Tell us your deadline when you book and we will plan the edit around it.
They are. Actor headshots are supplied in the sizes and formats casting sites require, including Spotlight. We shoot straightforward head-and-shoulders portraits, the kind agents and casting directors ask to see.
Please do. Two or three looks give you variety, which matters most for personal branding, where images have to work on several platforms. We will help you choose which changes are worth the time within your sitting.
It needs a natural, confident expression, clean light and a background that does not compete. It should look like you on a good day, read clearly at thumbnail size and suit every place you plan to use it.
It depends on whether you need a single headshot, a personal-branding sitting or a full team day. Send a few details and we will come back with clear pricing and no obligation.
Serving Chorleywood
Chorleywood is about 6 miles from Northwood, close enough for a lunchtime or after-work sitting. It sits close to Rickmansworth and Croxley Green, which we cover too. You can sit for your headshot in Northwood or have us set up at your Chorleywood office or home, and there is no charge for the travel.
Chorleywood sits in Three Rivers District, Hertfordshire, about 20 miles north-west of central London. Chorleywood station, on Station Approach in Zone 7, is on the Metropolitan line, as is Northwood Hills, the nearest station to our studio. For an outdoor personal-branding set we would suggest the edge of Chorleywood Common, the 75.6-hectare Local Nature Reserve owned and managed by Chorleywood Parish Council.

At the studio
The studio at The Broadway, 21 Joel St, Northwood HA6 1NU is roughly 6 miles from Chorleywood. Headshot sittings are by appointment, and passport and ID photos, printing, framing, restoration and scanning are handled in the studio. We are open 10:30 to 18:00 Monday to Saturday and 13:00 to 18:00 on Sunday, which leaves room for a sitting before or after work.
Kaushik Bathia takes every headshot himself; he is a Fellow of the BIPP and the MPA, holds five European Kodak Gold Awards and opened the Northwood studio in 2001.
