Can I request a specific style or mood for my portrait session?

Yes. Reference images or a simple description of what you’re after are both useful, and get factored into the plan for the session.

This comes up often enough with portrait session bookings that it’s worth answering properly rather than in a single line on a FAQ list. Every portrait session booking (from £400 for a studio session, or from £1,000 for a branding session) covers the full process end to end, so there’s no separate charge for the kind of ordinary back-and-forth this question usually leads to.

FAQs

Two common questions, answered.

Where do portrait sessions happen?
Most sessions run at LemonShark Studio, 769 Fulham Road SW6, five minutes from Parsons Green. On request sessions run on location anywhere in London: an office, a street, a park that means something.

What is a branding session?
A longer session, from £1,000, built for founders and small teams needing more than one look. Multiple setups and locations feed a full image library for a site and social channels.
