Portrait Photographer in Amersham

Plan for an hour to ninety minutes for an outdoor sitting in Amersham, most of it spent walking from one background to the next rather than posed at any of them. Studio sittings run shorter. The photography itself takes less time than people expect; the length comes from letting someone stop performing, and that tends to happen in the second set of frames, not the first.

After your Amersham session you receive a gallery of carefully edited portraits to pick your favourites from. From there you can order fine prints, framed pieces, canvases and hand-finished albums, or simply keep the digital images. Our editing is light and natural, so you always look yourself.

Because there are two usable backgrounds within one sitting here and we plan for both. Shardeloes gives open parkland and distance behind the subject; the older streets by the Market Hall and St Mary's Church give something built and textured. Beginning at the parkland and finishing among the buildings means one booking yields two sets that do not resemble each other.

In The Broadway, 21 Joel St, Northwood HA6. Sittings booked from Amersham usually take place at your end instead, and the studio covers days when the weather has decided otherwise, for winter evenings with no daylight left after work, and for anyone wanting nothing behind them but plain tone. Directions and parking go out with the confirmation.

Plain, mid-tone and long in the sleeve holds up against both backgrounds Amersham offers, since parkland reads green and busy while old brick and timber read warm and busy, and pattern loses against either. A single alternative top in a contrasting shade beats bringing a suitcase. What goes on your feet counts for a great deal when a sitting takes in wet grass at Shardeloes.
