How much does a branding session cost in London in 2026?

Pricing for a branding session in London varies more than people expect, and most of that variation comes down to a handful of factors rather than the photographer simply picking a number.

At LemonShark Studio, branding session bookings run from £1,000 for a half day, £1,800 for a full day. That figure reflects the time on the ground, the number of images retouched, and how quickly you need everything delivered. Rush turnaround, additional locations and larger teams all move the number, but the baseline is set deliberately so you know what you’re paying for before you ask.

The honest advice: ask any photographer you’re considering exactly what is included in their quoted price, not just the headline number. Cheap rarely means simple. A quote that excludes retouching, travel or a second shooter often ends up costing more once those are added back in.

FAQs

Quick answers, no fluff.

What exactly is a branding session?
A longer shoot built around a business rather than a single portrait, covering multiple setups and locations. It delivers a full image library for a site and social channels in one go.

Can you shoot at our office or studio space?
Both, and often in the same session. Many branding shoots mix a couple of studio setups with candid shots of a team actually working.
