Why Do YOU Need a GOOD Headshot
A great headshot opens the door before you enter the room
Why Do You Need Help
Because a great headshot isn’t just taken — it’s shaped. Light shapes your face. Connection brings out the best in you.
A good photographer knows how to do both.
I'LL BE YOUR GUIDE
Hi, my name is Kate. I’m a photographer based in St Leonards, and I’m very curious about people and visual storytelling.
I feel like we all want to see this real human face behind the official cover. I love seeing different personalities as it's always magical and never the same.
I have a master’s degree as a film director and a photographer, and I use my skills in storytelling, composition and light to create images that can support people in both their personal and professional lives.
I have lived in St Leonards for the last 10 years and feel very fond of this town and it’s local community.
I do:
Business headshots
LinkedIn
Actors headshots for Spotlights
Creative studio sessions for artists
Branding
Event photography
London and East Sussex, UK
HOW CAn I HELP you
Tell me what you need
Give me a call and tell me what your headshot is for and what you have in mind. You can bring a visual reference, or I can help you find the right direction.
Find a day that works
Open my calendar, see what’s available and book a time that suits you.
Get ready
Before the shoot, we’ll talk through what to wear, what to bring and how to prepare, so you know exactly what to expect.
Enjoy the shoot
On the day, I’ll guide you through everything — lighting, position and expression — so you don’t need to worry about knowing what to do.
Choose your favourites
Afterwards, I’ll send you a proof sheet of the best images from the session. You choose the ones you love, and I’ll professionally edit those for you.
