Business headshots in South Wales by a BBC and ITV lighting director

Professional business headshots for executives, founders and professionals who need to project confidence, credibility and authority. Drawing on over 25 years of broadcast experience as a Lighting Director for the BBC and ITV, I create headshots that are carefully lit, composed and designed to represent you at your best whether for leadership profiles, corporate use or LinkedIn.

WHY PROFESSIONAL HEADSHOTS MATTER IN BUSINESS

In business, first impressions are often made long before a meeting takes place. A professional headshot shapes how you are perceived across leadership profiles, company websites, presentations and LinkedIn influencing trust, credibility and confidence at a glance.

For executives, founders and professionals, a headshot is not about looking polished for a single platform. It is about presenting authority and consistency wherever your image appears, ensuring it reflects your role, experience and responsibility accurately.

This is where lighting and control matter. Subtle differences in light, expression and posture can change how someone is perceived — from approachable to authoritative, from informal to credible. Understanding those nuances is essential when creating headshots for business.

BROADCAST LEVEL LIGHTING EXPERIENCE

Before specialising in professional headshots, I spent over 25 years working as a Lighting Director for the BBC and ITV. That background means every business headshot is approached with the same level of precision, consistency and control required in broadcast television

Carefully shaped lighting influences how authority, confidence and trust are read on camera. Small variations can subtly change how a subject is perceived, which is why broadcast-level lighting knowledge is particularly valuable when creating headshots for senior professionals and leaders.

The result is a professional headshot that feels composed, credible and appropriate for high-level business use.

A selection of business and executive headshots created for professionals across South Wales, designed to project confidence, credibility and consistency across corporate and online platforms.

On-location business headshots

Business headshots are often most effective when created in familiar, professional environments. I work on location across South Wales, photographing executives and professionals in offices, homes and corporate settings that allow subjects to feel comfortable while maintaining a polished, professional result.

Each session is supported by a fully controlled, mobile lighting setup, allowing light to be shaped precisely for consistency and clarity regardless of location. This ensures headshots meet professional standards suitable for corporate websites, leadership profiles and LinkedIn.

Working on location also reduces disruption, making sessions efficient and straightforward for individuals or teams while maintaining a high level of finish and consistency.

Sessions are structured to suit individual professionals, leadership teams and organisations, depending on the level of coverage, flexibility and time required.

Frequently asked questions

Clothing should reflect your role and how you want to be perceived professionally. Clean, well-fitted outfits in neutral or muted tones tend to photograph best. I’m happy to advise ahead of the session if you’re unsure or need guidance.

Most individual sessions last around one hour, depending on the level of coverage required. Team and corporate sessions are scheduled to minimise disruption while maintaining consistency and quality across all subjects.
