The short answer

Where can I get a modelling portfolio shoot near me?

Model portfolio shoots take place in the studio on The Broadway, 21 Joel St, Northwood HA6 1NU, near Harrow, Pinner, Ruislip and Watford. A portfolio session covers several looks and lighting styles, so the set shows range: clean, honest headshots that look like you, alongside full-length and fashion frames, in colour and black and white. Sessions are booked in advance by phone, WhatsApp or the form below.

The session

What happens at a portfolio shoot

We plan the looks before the day, then work through them with a different lighting set-up for each, from soft and natural to more dramatic. Direction on posture, angle and expression is given throughout, and frames are reviewed together as we go.

Editing is honest and un-gimmicky: agencies and clients want to see the person who will walk through the door.

Planning

Looks, outfits and the headshot

Bring two or three outfits that show different sides of you: something simple and fitted, something with more character, and anything specific to the work you want. Every portfolio should include a clear, natural headshot; for actors, our actor headshots page covers casting-ready sittings in detail.
