What does your online presence, and more specifically your headshot portrait, say about you and your company? Have you been meaning to get some professional headshots done, but you’re too busy/worried about the cost/don’t like having your photo taken? Sweetheart Studio is running some special offer headshot sessions for local businesses in Wimbledon in the studio above Gooseberry Bush Café at 115 Kingston Road on Friday 2 August from 10am to 3pm and on Tuesday 13 August from 2 to 5pm.

The sessions cost £60 per person which includes:

• A 30-minute mini portrait session (we’ll have a chat prior to this to establish your needs from your shoot);

• Around 15 images from your photo session, digitally edited in colour and black and white, uploaded to your own private password-protected online gallery so that you can view, choose and share your portraits;

• Four high-res digital images of your choice, in black and white and colour, for both online and print usage, with the option to buy further images if you wish.

If you are interested in booking a session, please get in touch to reserve your slot in advance by email  jo@sweetheartstudio.co.uk or call me on 07711 087636 (there is a £10 reservation fee which will be deducted from your final order).

Why choose me to photograph your headshots?

I have done lots of headshot shoots and will do all I can to put you at ease so that you can relax in front of the camera and end up with a set of natural, professional photos to use on your website, business literature or social media profiles from Facebook to LinkedIn. My subjects have included people from all professions from actors to entrepreneurs, stylists to midwives. I don’t like having my photo taken myself and I think this helps me to put others at ease in front of the camera and find their best angle or pose quickly. Here’s some feedback from some satisfied headshot customers:

‘I needed some professional head shots for my CV and general use. I have always been uncomfortable in front of a camera, so I was slightly apprehensive about having them done and about the cost factor! Then I found Jo, we met for a coffee first to discuss what I needed and she immediately put me at ease. We continued to chat throughout the photo shoot which certainly helped me to relax to the extent I forgot Jo was pointing a camera at me. The result was that she took the best shots I have had done for years and did the impossible, actually caught me naturally smiling and looking quite handsome.’ David Fierstone, Entrepreneur

‘I can’t recommend Jo at Sweetheart Studio highly enough for her creativity, warmth, efficiency, professionalism… and beautiful packaging and presentation of your goods!’ Hilary Nicholls, Personal Stylist at Frock Chicks

‘My portrait session with Jo was such fun, I had to remind myself that it was actually work! I normally hate having my photo taken as I tend to close my eyes or pull a face at exactly the wrong moment, but Jo put me at my ease, chatted easily and understood my nerves. I now have a set of pictures for my business website, Facebook and Twitter where I look friendly, approachable and happy. I highly recommend Jo’s photographic skills and personable approach.’ Louise Abbott-Little, Aromatherapy massage therapist
