The short answer

Do you take headshots at offices in South London?

Yes. Kaushik Bathia photographs headshots at offices and workspaces from Richmond upon Thames, about 12 miles from Northwood, round to Greenwich and Lewisham at about 19 to 20 miles. A single LinkedIn or corporate sitting takes around 20 to 30 minutes. For a team he sets up one matched light and background in a spare room so every colleague is framed the same way. Travel from Northwood is set out in your written quote, and prices are given on request by phone or WhatsApp.

It was a pleasure working with Kaushik who managed to help me at short notice to provide official photos for professional use at very short notice and was able to support me whilst abroad. Thanks and would highly recommend their services.

Samir S., Google review, 2021

I needed a few photographs for my website but ended up buying all the pictures taken by Kaushik as they were all beautiful and I couldn’t leave any behind! He was responsive, accommodating and flexible. I’ve already recommended him to a friend. I’ll be back when I need more pictures taken. Thanks Kaushik!

Highly recommend!!! I came from Qatar and found this famous Photographer Kaushik Bathia who took my photographs! Absolutely incredible. He touched up on blemishes and really made the photo look so beautiful!

The west of the patch

Small firms in Richmond, Twickenham and Teddington

Richmond upon Thames is a borough of small businesses: it has 5,690 business units, and 95% of them employ ten people or fewer. That shapes how a headshot session tends to run there. Instead of a long line of staff, it can be three or four partners, an office manager and a new hire, all photographed in one visit so the website shows one consistent set rather than a mix of holiday crops and old passport pictures.

The council names Heron Square, Eton House, Spencer House, Paradise Road, 1 Church Road and One Eton Street among Richmond's prime office addresses, with Regal House, Premier House and Bridge House in Twickenham, Harlequin House in Teddington and Marina Place in Hampton Wick further along the river. Richmond station, a terminus of the District line and the Mildmay line, is the obvious meeting point if a sitter is coming in from elsewhere for the day. Our Richmond upon Thames headshot page covers the borough in more detail.

On the river

Nine Elms, Battersea Power Station and the towers at London Bridge

The riverside between Battersea and Bermondsey has changed the shape of office life in South London. Battersea Power Station reopened in October 2022 with shops, restaurants and offices occupied by Apple and others, and the Northern line extension has served Nine Elms since September 2021, alongside the US Embassy and the Embassy Gardens business space. Further east, The Shard houses offices for firms in energy, retail, technology, finance, professional services, education and healthcare.

Tall-building offices have their own logistics. Book a room with a plain wall or enough depth for a backdrop, check how visitors and equipment are signed in at reception, and decide whether you want the window view in the frame or a neutral background. A view of the river reads as place and ambition on a company website; a clean grey reads as consistency on LinkedIn. Both are possible in one visit if the room allows.

Science and engineering

Sutton's hospital, research and engineering employers

Sutton sits about 19 miles from Northwood at the southern edge of the area, and its working population looks unlike Richmond's. The Royal Marsden Hospital and the Institute of Cancer Research are both there, and the London Cancer Hub partnership aims to bring together 10,000 scientists and staff with space for biotech and pharma firms. The engineering company Subsea 7 has made Sutton the site of its new world headquarters.

Clinicians, researchers and engineers may need a headshot for a conference programme, a grant application, a journal profile or a departmental page, and usually at short notice. The session can be set up in a seminar room or office near your lab or ward, timed around clinics and meetings, with each sitting kept to around 20 to 30 minutes so nobody is away from work for long. Quadrant House, next to Sutton station, and the Civic Offices on St Nicholas Way are both within walking distance of the town centre. The Sutton headshots page has more on the town.

Creative workspaces

Deptford, Greenwich Peninsula and Pop Brixton

The east and centre of the patch lean towards studios and start-ups. Deptford and New Cross form one of London's first Creative Enterprise Zones, and Cockpit gives studio space and business support to more than 175 independent creative businesses, with studios in Deptford. On Greenwich Peninsula, Design District has 14 buildings of coworking desks, private offices and studios for more than 170 businesses in design, tech, fashion, media and architecture, one minute from North Greenwich station.

In Brixton, Pop Brixton houses independent street food traders, bars and local start-ups in shipping containers, and Lambeth Works is the council's affordable workspace programme for micro and small businesses. A creative founder's headshot rarely wants a corporate grey. It often works better against brick, timber or a working bench, with a second set of wider frames for the website's About page and a tighter crop for LinkedIn. For borough detail, see headshots in Lewisham and Lambeth.

How it works

One sitter or a whole floor: what the session looks like

For an individual, the sitting runs around 20 to 30 minutes. Kaushik guides posture, angle and expression, shows you frames as he goes, and stops when you have one you are happy to put your name to. You receive one to three retouched files with a natural finish, cropped for LinkedIn, a website and print. If you would rather come to him, individual sittings also run at the Northwood studio.

For a team, the brief is consistency, and the corporate headshots page explains the set-up. One lighting set-up and one background are kept identical from the first colleague to the last, so the team page reads as a single set. Send the number of people, the room you have, and whether you want a plain background or your own office behind them. Retouched images are typically delivered within a few working days, and travel from Northwood is quoted up front and set out in writing before you book.

Planning

Planning around South London

01

Wimbledon head offices

Wimbledon is Merton's largest commercial centre, with the Love Wimbledon BID and head offices including the CIPD and Zipcar's UK headquarters. Station-adjacent offices there suit a morning team session.

02

Merton award entries

Merton Chamber of Commerce organises the Merton Best Business Awards 2026. If you are entering, a current headshot for the founder or the whole team is worth booking before the deadline.

03

Kingston First members

Kingston First, the town-centre BID, is based at Neville House on Eden Street. Kingston's Bentall Centre and John Lewis anchor the shopping district, so retail managers can be photographed between shifts.

04

Waterloo networking

WeAreWaterloo runs SME networking breakfasts for the Waterloo area. A fresh LinkedIn headshot before you start meeting people there is a small, practical piece of preparation.

05

The Ministry and coworking

The Ministry in Borough, a converted Victorian printworks, and Oru Sutton both have meeting rooms. Book one for an hour and several members can be photographed back to back.

Good to know

Headshots in South London: questions answered

Yes, provided the building lets a photographer and equipment in, which reception or facilities will confirm. Book a meeting room with some depth, tell us how many people are being photographed, and say whether you want the view or a plain background. Travel from Northwood to these riverside offices is quoted in writing before you book.

It is a common size there: 95% of Richmond's 5,690 business units employ ten people or fewer. Three sitters in one visit gives you a matching set for the website, and each sitting runs around 20 to 30 minutes. A price for a small Richmond office visit comes back by phone or WhatsApp on 07956 505383.

Yes. Sutton is about 19 miles from Northwood. Tell us the room you can use and the times your staff are free between clinics or lab work, and the day is planned around them. Each person gets the same light and background so a departmental page looks consistent.

Retouched images are typically delivered within a few working days, cropped and sized for LinkedIn, a website and print. If a deadline is fixed, such as an awards entry or a conference programme, say so when you enquire so the session date can be set with that in mind.

Yes. Creative headshots often suit a working setting, such as a studio bench in a Deptford workspace or a brick wall near Pop Brixton, more than a corporate grey. Personal-branding sessions can add wider frames for a website. Ask by phone or WhatsApp and we will suggest how to shape the session.

Yes, if the same room and background are used and you send us one of the earlier images. Matching light, framing and crop is the point of a team set, and later sessions in your Wimbledon, Kingston or Southwark office can follow the same brief.

Wear what you would wear to meet a client, in plain mid or dark colours, with nothing that competes with your face. Bring a second top or jacket if you want a choice. The national headshots page links to a fuller guide on what to wear before a sitting.
