Pinner and nearby
One person gets a short sitting: two or three setups, a second top if you brought one, and the shortlist picked with you before you leave. A team is photographed on your premises in whatever order the working day permits, with the lighting untouched between people.
Files come square for profiles and wider for websites and print, retouched so that a spot goes and a line stays. Nothing leaves with us that you have not already seen and approved on the day.

Excellent service! I went to Kaushik for a headshot photo - the entire process was quick and professional & the photos were high-quality, edited fantastically and exactly what I needed!
…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.
I had a photoshoot recently and it was such a great experience. Everyone was lovely and made us comfortable. The pictures looks great as well I am very pleased. I will definitely come back when the opportunity arises again,
What we offer
Studio headshots at Northwood, one direct Metropolitan line journey from Pinner with nothing to change onto.
On-site team sessions: we bring lighting and background, you release people in whatever order suits the day.
Square crops for profiles and wider frames for websites, matched so a whole team looks photographed together.
Why choose us
LinkedIn pictures work best on a plain background, so your face is the first thing people see. Every headshot starts from the same basics: a clean background, flattering light and clear direction.
Choose a single headshot, a longer personal-branding sitting or a team day at your Pinner office, each priced separately. You choose between a clean studio background or a contextual setting that suits your brand and role.

Recent work
A consultant or shop owner in Pinner might want Pinner High Street behind them instead of plain grey, and a short walk between two setups would do it. Each place below is described from the source linked beside it, with the station included for anyone travelling to the studio instead.

Good to know
Plain, mid-tone, unpatterned. Fine stripes and small checks shimmer on screen and date a picture; a solid colour a shade or two from the background does the work instead. Bring a spare in a different tone in case the first one vanishes against the backdrop. Since the line from Pinner runs straight to Northwood, you can travel in what you intend to wear and arrive uncreased.
Yes, happily. We photograph students and graduates finding their feet, from a debut LinkedIn profile to an early casting portfolio. Whether you need a first LinkedIn picture or a portfolio shot for auditions, the sitting is relaxed and the result professional.
Genuinely, yes, and plenty of people feel the same way at first. Gentle, clear direction, one simple instruction at a time, puts nervous people at ease, and the natural expression it draws out is often a pleasant surprise.
A single headshot is quick, usually about twenty minutes in front of the camera, though packages vary. Personal-branding and team bookings take longer, paced so that nobody feels hurried.
You pick your favourites with us on screen before you leave, and we retouch those. A standard sitting normally includes one or two retouched images, and personal-branding or team packages include more.
Serving Pinner
From Pinner station it is one stop to Northwood Hills, the nearest station to our studio. It sits close to Eastcote, which we cover too. We do not charge travel for team headshots in Pinner, and we photograph across Greater London too.
Pinner lies about 12 miles north-west of Charing Cross, within the London Borough of Harrow near the Hillingdon border. Pinner station has had lifts since 2008, so the journey to the studio starts step-free at the Pinner end. West House on West End Lane, restored and reopened in 2010, stands beside the Heath Robinson Museum, which opened in 2016.

The Metropolitan line puts Pinner and Northwood on the same run of stations, so reaching the studio from here means one leg with nothing to change onto. You can come either side of a working day instead of surrendering a morning to it, and arrive in what you were already wearing, which is very often the right thing to be photographed in. Nobody has to negotiate a car, so a booking that slips by twenty minutes costs nothing. What that portrait then has to do is set by where it ends up. A great many people living here work into central London, and their picture lands in a directory or on a firm's site assembled somewhere else entirely, beside colleagues shot in a room none of them chose. So the local sitting must not look local. No recognisable window, no street behind the shoulder, no daylight with a season in it. A flat, even tone behind the head carries no information at all, and carrying no information is precisely the job. The argument worth having is about camera height. Set the lens above the sitter and the jaw softens while the forehead grows. Drop it below and the opposite happens, with the nose gaining and the neck thickening. Eye level, or a shade over, suits almost everyone and is the setting a directory expects. We note the recipe used, so a picture made months later still sits comfortably beside the earlier ones instead of standing out as the newer one.
