Headshot, Fitness & Personal Branding Photography

Professional headshots that build trust, confidence and credibility

About

I’m Sam, a Northamptonshire-based commercial photographer with over 6 years of professional experience and a 10-year background in teaching and creative direction.

I create professional headshots and personal branding imagery for individuals, teams and businesses who want to look credible, confident and approachable across LinkedIn, websites and marketing, without feeling awkward or over-posed.

Whether you’re refreshing your professional image, building a personal brand or photographing a growing team, I create imagery designed to support trust, connection and conversion.

Why Professional Headshots Matter

Your headshot is often the first impression someone has of you or your business.

Professional headshots help you:

  • Build trust and credibility instantly

  • Look confident and approachable online

  • Create consistency across LinkedIn, websites and marketing

  • Stand out from competitors using outdated or phone images

  • Present a polished, professional brand

A strong headshot doesn’t just look good, it helps people feel confident choosing you.

I wanted to capture an authentic "me" and capturing the right posture, expression and colours is always a challenge. Samantha mastered this at her Welly Pictures mini-shoot day at Chester House estate. Relaxed, well organised and very purposeful - I ended up with 16 great images. Thanks Samantha.’

‘Sam is a joy to work with. She recently did a professional photo shoot for my new business. I can be quite nervous in front of the camera, and Sam really took her time to get to know what I wanted and needed from the shoot; and did her best to make me feel comfortable and look my best. I am so happy with the results. Would recommend her highly. Thank you Sam’
