Portraits made to flatter in Edmonton

  • What is included: A short talk first about what the pictures are for, guided posing with time for outfit changes, a private online gallery to choose from, and a natural retouch on every portrait you pick, supplied as web and print files.
  • Where we photograph in Edmonton: Your home or garden, or outdoors at Pymmes Park or Pymmes Park walled garden. We travel from Northwood, about 15 miles away. A sitting at the Northwood studio is also possible if you would rather.
  • How to book: Call 07956 505383, send a WhatsApp message to the same number, or use the enquiry form on this page.

Each sitting begins with a conversation about where the portraits will be used and how you want to come across. Kaushik then guides every pose step by step, adjusting your stance, hands and expression so you look at ease rather than posed.

Once the sitting ends, your portraits appear in an online gallery where you can choose at a relaxed pace, under no pressure. Selected portraits are retouched naturally, supplied web-ready and print-ready, and can be ordered as prints, frames and albums.

Kaushik was a great help and took some great photos for my partner and I. I would highly recommend for all your photography needs.

Roshan J., Google review, 2025

Kaushik has been absolutely fantastic!! I called him to book for a photoshoot session for my parents anniversary, last minute with just one day in advance. he was super responsive and was able to accommodate. He was also understanding when they were running late. Even more impressive is that he put my parents at ease and was able to get great shots, its their first photoshoot and it turned out great!

Sindu J., Google review, 2020

I did a fabulous photoshoot with Kaushik and thoroughly enjoyed it! I was very nervous, but he made me feel at ease! I will hopefully return for another one at a later date!

What we offer

Portrait photography in Edmonton

01

Outdoor sittings

Outdoor portraits against the listed walls and borders of the Pymmes Park walled garden.

25+ years behind the lens

Portraits across Greater London

We light each face to flatter it, adjusting the setup for skin tone, glasses and features so everyone looks their best. The good frame usually arrives about two thirds of the way through a sitting, once the self consciousness has worn off and the shoulders have dropped.

Backdrops run from clean white through mid grey to near black, and the choice usually follows what you are wearing rather than the other way round. A sitting can be as short as one well-lit portrait or as full as several outfits and set-ups.

Serving Edmonton

A portrait photographer near Edmonton

Portrait sittings reach across Greater London, and Edmonton, in the N9 and N18 districts of Enfield, sits well inside that area. It sits close to Winchmore Hill and Palmers Green, which we cover too.

Edmonton grew up around Pymmes Park, a site with a house recorded from 1327 and links to Elizabeth I's treasurer Lord Burghley, and its old walls give a portrait a sense of history. Open to the public since 1906, the park keeps its Grade II listed garden walls, which make a textured background for an outdoor portrait. Trains from Silver Street and Edmonton Green reach London Liverpool Street, and the A10 joins the North Circular close by, so reaching a portrait location is simple. For on-location sessions we can head to spots such as Pymmes Park, close to the well-known Millfield House.

Guides

Portrait guides for Edmonton

Journal reading on clothing, posing and location choices for anyone planning a portrait in Edmonton.

For a portrait close to home, Edmonton's most interesting setting is the Victorian walled garden in Pymmes Park. Its listed walls enclose three sides, so the old brickwork becomes a warm, textured background, and the herbaceous borders and bedding plants add colour at the edges of the frame without stealing attention. The ornamental pond inside the garden, and the larger lake elsewhere in the park, reflect light upwards, which lifts shadows under the eyes on a grey day. Jubilee Park, the other large green space in Edmonton, offers simpler open grass if you want a cleaner, airier look. For a more architectural feel, the brown brick and Doric columns of Millfield House on Silver Street, now an arts centre, suggest the kind of classical backdrop that suits a formal portrait. Walls hold warmth and reflect colour, so stand a step or two away from the brick to avoid an orange cast on skin, and pick clothing in cool or neutral tones to balance it. Every pose is directed, so you do not need any experience, and you choose favourites at leisure from an online gallery.
