Headshots

3 images, 45-minute session, £250

Look professional, feel confident, be recognisable

Your starting point for showing up with confidence and clarity online

A professional headshot is the foundation of a confident online presence. Whether you’re updating your LinkedIn profile, refreshing your About page, or simply want to present yourself more confidently online, a focused portrait session helps you make the right impression from the start.

My headshot sessions in Edinburgh and across Scotland are short, simple, and relaxed. You’ll get standout portraits that look professional, feel like you, and give you the confidence to start showing up more consistently across your business platforms.

Make the right impression

Your headshot is often the first thing people see – on your website, LinkedIn, or a pitch deck. Let’s make it count.

I’ll guide you through relaxed, flattering poses and natural expressions so your portraits look professional and feel like you. These images are crafted to help you come across as approachable, capable, and confident – ready for opportunities that come your way.

Professional doesn’t have to mean stiff

This isn’t a rushed, awkward photo with a plain background (unless you want one).

My sessions are friendly, collaborative, and built around you – your personality, your goals, and how you actually work. I’ll help you feel at ease in front of the camera so your images look genuine and natural, not posed or forced. The result is portraits that look polished but still feel like real life.

Images that grow with you

You’ll get three high-quality portraits you can use across LinkedIn, social media, speaker bios, your website, and more, with the option to purchase additional images from your gallery if you’d like more variety.

They’re a simple way to start building a professional visual presence that can grow and evolve with you. Whether this is your first professional shoot or a quick update, your headshots will give you a confident foundation for everything that comes next.

Headshot of man by photographer in Edinburgh Scotland

Donna took some corporate headshots of our new Director - not only was she quick to respond (and friendly) but the final shots were first class (and turned around in record time).


Would highly recommend!

Donna was fantastic during our photo shoot, helping me to feel at ease (I'm not naturally very confident in front of the camera).


The result was stunning photos that I use across my business, on social media, my website, and featured posts.  I would definitely recommend Donna.

I met Donna at a networking event and got the opportunity to work with her a few months later.


I hate having photos taken and I normally feel uncomfortable, but she was very professional, and put me at ease straight away.


It was quick, easy, and painless and she got some great photos for me.

FAQs about headshots

How do headshot sessions work and how long do they take?

Sessions are relaxed and collaborative. We’ll spend around 45 minutes in one location, with gentle guidance on posture, expression, and positioning so you look natural and confident. You can read more about what’s included on my Headshots page.

Where do headshot sessions take place?

I shoot on location in Edinburgh and can travel elsewhere in Scotland by arrangement. We’ll pick a spot that suits your personality and how you work. If you’d like inspiration for settings, take a look at my blog post on the best locations in Edinburgh for brand photoshoots.

What do I receive after the shoot?

You’ll get a private online gallery with around 20 fully edited images to choose from. Your favourite three are included, delivered in both high-resolution and web-ready formats. If you’d like more variety, you can purchase additional images from your gallery. You can also see how this process works for longer sessions on my Soar brand photography package page.

What should I wear, and will you help me decide?

Choose outfits you feel good in and that fit your brand and setting. Clean lines and simple textures photograph well. I’ll send simple guidance before your session and we can review options together so everything feels cohesive. You’ll also find plenty of practical advice in my What to wear for a brand photoshoot guide.

Will you retouch my photos, and will I still look like me?

Yes – light, realistic retouching. I’ll make subtle improvements while keeping skin texture and your natural features so you still look like yourself, just on a really good day.

Can I use my headshots right across my business?

Yes. Your images come with a full commercial use licence, so you can use them on your website, LinkedIn, social media, speaker bios, press, and more.
