Kaushik opens with a handful of test frames to set the lighting and help you relax, then guides you through slight shifts in angle and expression. You can see the pictures on screen as you go and say which feel most like you.
Retouched headshots usually come through a few working days after your Colindale session. Retouching removes temporary blemishes and stray hairs but leaves your features alone, and every file is supplied in both web and print sizes for profiles, websites and documents.

Thank you for the photos taken for my son's lookbook. They are fantastic!

A headshot for someone based in Colindale will often be needed for one of a few reasons: a new job, a course, a promotion, or a business starting up in one of the district's new developments. Barnet and Southgate College has its Colindale campus here and the Metropolitan Police has trained officers at the Peel Centre near the station since 1934, so plenty of people locally are at a point in their working lives where a professional picture suddenly matters. An individual LinkedIn or corporate sitting at the studio lasts around twenty to thirty minutes, which is enough time to try two outfits and a couple of expressions without it dragging. Organisations with a team to photograph can have a matched set-up brought to their own office instead, at about five to ten minutes per person, so the whole staff page looks consistent. The studio is about 7 miles from Colindale, at The Broadway in Northwood Hills, with parking nearby and the Metropolitan line station a two-minute walk away. Bring a jacket even if you rarely wear one; it adds structure to the shoulders and can come off for a softer second look. Choose plain fabrics in mid tones, and if you wear glasses, keep them on so the picture looks like the person people will meet. Edited files normally arrive within a few working days.
