Headshot Package

Where is your studio?

My home studio is located in Redbridge, within a brief 10-minute walk of Redbridge station. If you're traveling by car, it's conveniently situated near the A406 and M11.

How does the session start?

At Paul Cable Photography, my sessions are dedicated to creating a relaxed atmosphere to bring out your best. I start with a friendly discussion about your session objectives, offer you a hot or cold drink, and set the ambiance with your favourite music.

How long do we have?

The scheduled shoot time is one hour. But if it takes a bit longer, that's perfectly fine my main focus is on delivering exceptional photos for you.

Is there a make-up artist or stylist available?

Over the years, I've built connections with makeup artists and stylists. If you would like the services of a professional, I can check their availability and rates at the time of your booking.

What should you wear?

Choosing the right attire for a headshot session is important, as it can greatly impact the outcome of your photos. Here are some general guidelines for what to wear:

1. Solid Colours: Opt for solid colours over patterns or busy prints. Solid colours are less distracting and help draw attention to your face.

2. Classic and Timeless: Choose classic and timeless outfits that won't look outdated in a few years. Simple, well-fitting clothing is a safe bet.

3. Complement Your Skin Tone: Select colours that complement your skin tone. If you're unsure, neutral tones like black, white, grey, and navy tend to work well for most people.

4. Avoid All White or All Black: Wearing all white or all black can make it challenging to capture details in the photos. Add some colour or layering to break up the contrast.

5. Necklines: Consider the neckline. V-neck or scoop-neck tops can be flattering and elongate the neck, while turtlenecks can make it appear shorter.

6. Avoid Logos and Branding: Clothing with prominent logos or branding can be distracting. It's best to avoid them.

7. Accessorise Mindfully: If you wear jewellery or accessories, keep it simple and tasteful. They should complement your overall look, not dominate it.

8. Grooming:  Ensure your clothes are clean and wrinkle-free. It's also a good idea to have a fresh haircut or hairstyle if needed.

9. Bring Options: If you're unsure, bring a few outfit options and we can have a look together.

Ultimately, the choice of clothing should reflect your personality and the image you want to convey in your headshots.

What happens at the end of the session?

After your photo session, you can either pick the images you would like edited or receive a download link within 24/48 hours with all the photos, which will be in a low-resolution format. This gives you the freedom to take your time, seek input from others, and make sure your final choices match your needs perfectly.

How long until I can get my edited photos?

Once I've received your image selection, I will start the final editing stage by preparing and delivering to you via a download link high-quality watermark-free images. Typically, you will receive your final edited shots within 7-10 days, if you require an expedited delivery, I offer an express service for an additional fee of £50.

Can I buy additional photos?

You will receive three edited images with your package, and if you desire additional photos, they can be purchased at an extra cost of £30 each or three for £75.
