For Newham
The working figure is ten minutes per head, which is enough for four or five usable expressions and not long enough for anybody to stiffen up. We shoot straight to a laptop, so you point at the one you want instead of trying to describe it.
With a team we follow a running list you set beforehand, photographing whoever has to leave earliest, first. Files come back lightly retouched: a flyaway hair or a shine on the forehead goes, and the face itself is left exactly as it is.

Perfect place to get headshot or passport photos taken! High quality, great speed, professional, edited to perfection.
…I needed some photos done for my acting career and Kaushik came highly recommended. It was helpful to know he is very experienced in taking photos for this purpose and kindly advised me on what outfits to wear to produce the best photos. Kaushik was very patient, helpful and professional which made it very easy to feel relaxed and comfortable during the shoot.
An amazing experience from start to finish. The photographer was professional, friendly, and made us feel completely at ease. The photos perfectly captured genuine moments between us and turned out even better than we expected. Highly recommend for couples looking for high-quality photography.

For casting, retouching goes no further than taking the shine off. Nothing about your face is reshaped, because a casting director has to recognise you in the room. The most useful adjustment is chin forward and a little down, and it usually feels odd for the first few tries.
If you need a website banner, a conference slide or a speaker profile, ask for a landscape frame with room beside the head. With a team package, everyone from the front desk to the board gets a headshot that matches.

A Newham office headshot day would run through the working day in one meeting room, with each colleague called in turn so nobody is away from their desk for long. The notes below, each linked to its source, cover the business campuses, docks and transport hub around which a headshot day might be arranged. Travel from Northwood is set out in your written quote before you book.

Good to know
We review the frames together before you leave and agree which go forward for retouching. A standard booking usually ends with one or two retouched frames. Personal-branding and team packages include more selects, to cover profiles, websites and print.
Yes, both, and we tailor each sitting to suit. A LinkedIn or company headshot should look polished and easy to approach, while a casting headshot stays natural and true to character. Say which it is when you book and we will direct you with that in mind.
It turns on headcount more than anything. With one or two sitters, Northwood is simpler: fixed background, no room to assess on arrival, nothing to negotiate. With a team the balance tips, since taking twelve people out of a building in Newham for half a working day costs a great deal more than our travelling does. The same lights turn up either way.
Usually not, and it is the crop that fails rather than the picture. A profile circle keeps the head and loses the shoulders. A website banner needs clear room alongside the head for type. Press use wants the full frame. We photograph tight and loose versions of one setup, so the three uses are covered by a single sitting rather than another booking next spring.
Yes. Acting headshots get their own approach. Frames are sized for Spotlight, casting sites and your agent, and we aim for a natural expression so a casting director sees you as you are.
Serving Newham
Newham's postcode districts run from E6 and E7 through E12, E13, E15 and E16 to E20. It sits close to Tower Hamlets, which we cover too. We can take headshots at your premises anywhere in Newham, about 20 miles from our Northwood base.
Here East, the former 2012 Olympic Media Centre on the Hackney edge of Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, now houses UCL, Loughborough University London and the Plexal innovation hub. Stratford station sits in fare zones 2 and 3, with the Elizabeth line, the Underground, the Overground, the DLR and National Rail all stopping there. For an outdoor headshot we would suggest the tree-lined Tessa Jowell Boulevard in South Park Plaza, in Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, where the London Stadium also stands.

Stratford station carries the Elizabeth line, the Jubilee line and the DLR, which means a Newham headshot is almost never limited by geography. The decision is therefore about control, not distance. A borough changing this fast puts a particular demand on staff pictures. Skin tones across a team vary widely, and one exposure that flatters the first person will underexpose or wash out the next. The answer is distance rather than extra light: with the sitter well off the wall, power on the face can be lifted or dropped individually while the wall behind holds the same shade in every frame. That is what makes twelve separate sittings read as a single set. The remaining decision is the background, and the obvious choice is the wrong one. The London Stadium is recognisable, which is precisely the problem, since a landmark pins a portrait to one place and one date, and the picture stops working the moment its subject moves on. A plain tone outlasts a change of employer, a change of address, and a crop down to a small circle.

How it works
We travel to Newham from Northwood, about 20 miles away, so we bring the shoot to you. For a team we would set up a portable background and lights in a meeting room at your office.
Your headshot is taken by Kaushik Bathia, FBIPP and FMPA, working from Northwood since 2001 and holder of five European Kodak Gold Awards.
