Finding photographer for a portrait for my website

£200

Fitzrovia, Greater London, W1T

7th Oct 2026

Photographer wanted: warm, natural portraits for a therapy website — London I’m a therapist based in central London, looking for a photographer to create professional photographs for my wellbeing website, Shantiala.lv. I’d love a relaxed studio shoot with soft, natural-looking light and a calm, welcoming setting. The photographs should feel warm, authentic and approachable, with gentle guidance on posing. I’m looking for: • Professional headshots and relaxed seated and standing portraits. • A mixture of vertical and horizontal photographs. • Some wider images with space beside or above me for website text. • Natural editing that keeps me looking like myself. Ideally, the session would last around an hour and include approximately 20–30 edited, high-resolution images, with permission to use them on my business website and social media. My budget is around £200, with some flexibility for the right photographer and studio. Please share relevant examples from your portfolio, your availability, the studio location and your total quote, including studio hire, editing and any additional costs. I’d love to work with someone who understands the calm, reassuring feel of a therapy and wellbeing business. Thank you! Anna
