Our Northwood studio is an easy journey from Brent, Ealing, and we are just as happy to photograph on location near you. Direction is kept plain and clear, where to look and how to stand, so nothing feels awkward. We retouch lightly and naturally, removing distractions while leaving your skin, lines and character as they are.
Relaxed, simple direction helps even the most camera-shy sitter to a genuine expression. Long practice makes studio lighting second nature, and we shape it to flatter each face.
Every kind of sitting, from individual and couple portraits to graduation and milestone shoots, is on our portrait photography near Park Royal page.

Really pleased with my photos. Kaushik is very professional and took lots of picture for us to choose from. Our shoot was comfortable and not too long. I would highly recommend him.
We were a little nervous as it was our first photo shoot but Kaushik was very friendly and quickly had our nerves calmed with his charming personality. A great all round experience and we have some fab professional photos that we are very happy with. Highly recommended, 5 Stars :)
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!

Park Royal: canal, park and heritage settings for portraits
Around Park Royal the choice is between the open light of a Victorian park, the reflected light along the canal and the interwar houses of the Hanger Hill Garden Estate, and each suits a different hour. Here are a few settings near Park Royal, from canal and park to listed architecture, each described from a published source.
- Hanger Hill Wood, named from 'hangra', Old English for a wooded slope, has large oak and beech trees and is entered from Hanger Lane and Chatsworth Road, near Hanger Lane and Park Royal stations. 1
- North Acton Playing Fields, entered at Noel Road and Eastfields Road (W3 0JF), has an ornamental garden with a picnic area, tennis courts, a cricket pitch and North Acton Pavilion, a community and arts hub. 2
- Park Royal station, just off Western Avenue, is on the Uxbridge branch of the Piccadilly line in fare zone 3; its Art Deco building by Welch and Lander, with a tall square tower carrying the Underground roundel, is Grade II listed. 3
- Acton Park and the Twilight Tree. Acton Park opened in 1888 for Queen Victoria's Golden Jubilee, and a dying Dutch elm near its main entrance on Uxbridge Road has been carved into a 28-foot statue called the Twilight Tree. 4

Either is fine. Some people love the calm control of our Northwood studio and its professional lighting and backdrops. Others feel more themselves at home, in a park or somewhere that matters to them, and we are glad to meet you there on location.
Yes. We photograph portraits for clients in Park Royal and the surrounding area, either in our Northwood studio or on location near you. Individual, couple, group, personal-branding and graduation portraits are all part of what we do, at a relaxed and unhurried pace.
Absolutely, and we encourage it. Changing outfits a few times adds variety, and there is always time allowed for it. Ask beforehand and we will suggest which colours and styles work best under studio lighting.
Most sittings in Park Royal or at the studio run between one and two hours, depending on how many looks and setups you want. We never hurry, so there is room to change backdrops, adjust lighting and relax. Personal-branding and portfolio sessions usually need a little longer.
Yes, gladly. A solo portrait, in the studio or outdoors in the formal Victorian setting of Roundwood Park, is given over entirely to you. Calm, unhurried direction helps you look relaxed and at your best. Whether it is for a professional profile, a present or simply for you, we make the sitting worthwhile.
