Studio in Northwood HA6 · weddings from £750 · free consultation
Serving Hayes
Headshots are made at the Northwood studio, The Broadway, 21 Joel St, Northwood HA6, or at your own workplace in Hayes, Yeading, Harlington and Hayes End. Individuals book because a profile has stopped matching who they are. Employers book because a staff list has drifted into a mixture of cropped holiday snaps and nobody wants to say so out loud.
Distance settles this before the lighting does. Three metres between head and wall lets the background go soft and even so the face sits clear of it, whereas standing against the wall guarantees it never will. Small rooms are the real constraint, and we can usually find one big enough on site.

What we offer
Headshots made at Northwood or at your workplace desk in Hayes, ten minutes each, approved instantly.
Two frames per person, one formal and one looser, because the two ends of the commute want different things.
Whole teams shot to one recorded setup, so later arrivals match without rephotographing everyone who came before.
Local and experienced
Ten minutes per person once the lighting is set, which puts a team of twenty inside a single morning. We work from a list and tick it off, so nobody has to be hunted down at the end of the day.
You approve your own frame there and then, on screen, not a fortnight later. Files arrive both square and full frame, matched in tone across everybody, and the setup is noted so somebody joining in March still looks like somebody photographed in January.

Good to know
Yes, that is a common request. For new joiners we carefully mirror the lighting, background and framing of your existing headshots, keeping everyone consistent online. Whether your team is based in Hayes or elsewhere, the additions will look part of the same set.
Absolutely. Acting headshots are one of our specialities, and performers around Hayes book us regularly. We capture natural, characterful frames sized for Spotlight, casting websites and your agent, keeping everything honest rather than staged so casting directors see you as you really are.
They are. Actor headshots leave us in the exact sizes and formats casting sites expect, Spotlight among them. We shoot honest head-and-shoulders portraits, so performers from Hayes arrive at castings with images agents and casting directors genuinely want to see.
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 Hayes run longer. Either way, we hold a calm, comfortable pace rather than hurrying you.
Yes, though always gently. We tidy flyaway hairs, take the edge off shine and calm any distractions, all while keeping you looking like yourself. The goal is a polished, professional headshot that never strays into over-processed or unrecognisable territory. Outdoors in Hayes we would head for Barra Hall Park, the grounds of Barra Hall opened for public use.
Serving Hayes
Our studio is in Northwood, so Hayes (UB3) is part of our core Greater London area. It sits close to Hillingdon and Uxbridge, which we cover too. Sessions run at the studio or on location in Hayes, and there is no travel charge for local bookings.
Hayes is a west London town in the London Borough of Hillingdon with a large South Asian community. Hayes and Harlington station is served by the Elizabeth line towards Paddington and Reading. Barra Hall, a Grade II listed building that was Hayes town hall from 1924 to 1979 is a well-known local landmark in the area.

Hayes and Harlington is on the Elizabeth line, and what matters about that line is its two directions of travel: Paddington one way, Reading the other. Someone booking a headshot here is rarely photographing themselves for Hayes. The picture gets published at one end of that journey or the other, and the two ends do not want the same thing. Central offices tend to run tight, plain, evenly lit portraits laid out in a grid, where the only thing left to vary is the person. Employers at the far end of the line tend to publish with more air in the frame, wider crops, some of the room left visible. Asking which one applies costs nothing and it changes the lens, the working distance and how much shoulder stays in shot. So we make both. One formal frame with the background dropped to an even tone and the light kept soft and close, and one looser frame shot from further off with the room falling away behind. Same session, same shirt, ten minutes between them. It removes the argument about which register was wanted, because both exist. The journey is the other half of it. Our room is The Broadway, 21 Joel St, Northwood HA6, and it is the right answer when the background has to be controlled absolutely. When it is a whole staff list, or when the working day cannot spare the travelling, we bring the lighting to your own address instead and the commute does not enter into it at all.
