Your headshot is often the first thing people see of you, whether on LinkedIn, a company profile or a casting page. If you want professional headshots in London without setting up your own lighting and backdrop, our service handles all of it for you.
This is a full service with a photographer, not a do-it-yourself studio hire. One of our trained team runs the session with you from start to finish. You turn up and we handle the rest. You leave with images you can use straight away.
What you get in a headshot session
Every session is run by one of our in-house photographers, so you're never left to work it out alone. A session lasts about 45 minutes. Around 30 minutes goes on making the images, and we spend the last 15 minutes choosing and finalising your favourites together.
You leave with six retouched headshots, sent to you by email. Each one is edited to look natural so it still looks like you. The images are yours to use wherever you need them, whether that’s a LinkedIn profile or an acting CV. If you'd like more than six, you can buy extra images. And if you want prints in your hand rather than files, you can have them printed in store at our photo lab.
Because a photographer is with you the whole time, you're not left figuring out lighting or composition yourself. That's the difference between this and hiring a studio. You get someone who does professional headshots every week, which takes the guesswork out of it.
Who books professional headshots with us
We make professional headshots for all sorts of people.
A lot are individual professionals after a refresh, usually a tired LinkedIn photo or a company profile that's a few years old. Actors and performers come to us too, needing something that stands out for casting and works on Spotlight. Then there are teams who want a consistent set of headshots across the business, so everyone's profile looks like it belongs together.
When you book, you can choose between a corporate session or an acting and talent session. The two are set up a little differently, so it helps to know which one you're after.

For a team, matching headshots make a company look considered and consistent online. We can run several people through in one visit, and we'll plan the timing with you so it doesn't eat into everyone's day. A consistent set of professional headshots looks far better on an about page than a mix of selfies and old crops.
Team and corporate bookings are newer ground for us, and we're happy to arrange them. Rather than quoting a fixed number up front, we'd sooner work it out with you case by case. Get in touch and we'll put together something that suits the size of your team.
Feeling comfortable in front of the camera
It's normal to feel a little awkward in front of a camera. You don't need any experience, and you don't need to know your angles. Your headshot photographer will guide you through it and show you the images as you go, so nothing is a surprise at the end.
There isn't much to bring. A change of top, anything you use to touch up your look, a bottle of water, and your phone if you've saved any reference photos. A good night's sleep beforehand helps more than anything else. Beyond that, the photographer keeps things relaxed and tells you what's working as you go.
A quick word on clothes. Simple, neutral colours like grey or black tend to work best, since busy patterns pull attention away from your face. Bring a couple of options if you want them, and we'll help you choose the images that look most like you.
How much do professional headshots cost in London?
A full session at the FUJIFILM House of Photography is £99, including VAT. That gives you a photographer for 45 minutes and six retouched images by email. Extra images are £10 each, and you can add prints from our in-store photo lab. There's no separate studio fee on top, because the photographer is part of the service.
Where to find us
You'll find us on Long Acre in Covent Garden, in the middle of London. We're a few minutes from Covent Garden station and around four to five minutes from Leicester Square, so a session fits easily around a working day. If you're coming from work, it's an easy stop on the way in or at lunch. You can plan your visit before you come in.
Book your professional headshots
A good moment to book is when you’re just back from holiday. You’re rested, you’ve got a bit of colour, and you’re probably looking the most relaxed you have all year. It’s as good a reason as any to replace a profile photo that’s a few years out of date.
Booking takes a minute. Use our headshot booking tool to choose a date and time that suits you, and we'll look after the rest on the day.
If you're arranging headshots for a team or a corporate booking, head to our headshots page and get in touch through the contact details there. Tell us roughly how many people and when, and we'll come back with a plan that suits the size of your team.
