Derby · Professional Headshots
Derby · Nottingham · Leicester · East Midlands
Individuals · Teams · Brands
Derby is one of England's most important industrial and professional cities — the home of Rolls-Royce aero engines, Bombardier rail, and a strong cluster of manufacturing, engineering, and professional services firms. In every sector, the professional portrait has become the default introduction ahead of any actual meeting.
I offer individual and team headshot sessions across Derby and the East Midlands — bringing a complete portable studio setup to your office, or working in studio space in the city.

Engineering & industrial sector
Derby's dominant industries are not traditionally associated with imagery — but engineers, project managers, and executives increasingly need professional portraits for LinkedIn, bids, and press.
Consistent team pages
A mixed standard of profile photography on a company website signals inconsistency. A team session produces one coherent visual language across every member.
Fast turnaround
Individual sessions delivered in 3 working days; teams in 5. Derby-based businesses need imagery quickly — I build delivery speed into every booking.
On-site convenience
Bringing the studio to your Derby office removes travel time from every team member's calendar. The session runs efficiently with minimal disruption.
Coverage
Derby City Centre
Derby's manufacturing, engineering, aerospace, and professional services sector is one of the UK's strongest outside London. On-location headshots at your office, or studio sessions in the city centre with multiple backgrounds.
Pride Park & Spondon
Derby's main business park corridor — large employer headshots and team sessions at offices throughout the Pride Park and Spondon industrial areas. Portable studio setup travels with me.
Nottingham
Derby and Nottingham share an overlapping professional landscape — I regularly travel for headshot sessions across the Nottingham city area for individuals and teams.
Leicester & East Midlands
Professional headshots across the wider East Midlands — Leicester, Loughborough, Chesterfield, and surrounding areas. Contact me to discuss travel arrangements for your location.
Yes. I travel to Derby and across the East Midlands for individual and team sessions. For larger team bookings, travel can be incorporated into the session fee — contact me for a tailored quote.
Derby has a particularly strong aerospace, manufacturing, engineering, and rail industry base alongside finance, law, and creative sectors. I have photographed headshots for engineers, solicitors, consultants, architects, and executives across these industries.
No — the portable setup I bring to your office uses professional lighting equivalent to a studio. The background, lighting, and results are indistinguishable from a fixed studio session, with the added convenience of no travel for your team.
Yes — team sessions of up to 8 people in a half-day, or larger teams with a full day booking. I manage the scheduling to minimise disruption and ensure each person is photographed efficiently. Contact me for quotes on teams of 10 or more.
I send a full preparation guide to all clients before their session, covering outfit guidance, grooming, what to bring, and what to expect. The most important preparation is choosing two or three outfit options so we can select the best option on the day.
