Portrait Photography for Founders, Creatives & Teams

I'm known for creating a relaxed, comfortable space for you to fully unmask and relax.

Being in front of my camera is not about performing, or posing - it's simply about me documenting you being completely and utterly yourself.

Whether these images are just for you, or for your business, it’s important they share the tone and values you hold, so we’ll work together closely to bring these to life.

My Portrait Sessions are ideal for:

Individuals celebrating a milestone like a birthday or a non-traditional achievement (I'm here for it all!)


Authors ready to embrace their next chapter


Actors who’d like fresh headshots


Musicians looking to create album art or creative visuals


Business owners who need a couple of excellent portraits for their website, profile pictures and marketing materials


Friends with a deep love and respect for one another


Families who want to cherish this moment in time together

My style of photography embraces a documentary approach to capturing authentic expression.

I’ve made portraits for a range of brilliant folks and each session is unique and powerful.

I’m based in Somerset, and shoot all over the UK. 

We can make portraits in a beautiful outdoor location, in your home or a photography studio.

Kind Words From Past Clients

A young woman with long black wavy hair, wearing a black pleated top and a necklace with a heart-shaped pendant, smiling outdoors on a sunny day with green and yellow blurred background.

“Celie was incredibly friendly and made the whole team feel so comfortable in front of the camera.

Even those who were a bit nervous ended up enjoying the process, thanks to her calm and encouraging approach.

The final photos turned out absolutely beautiful - crisp, professional, and exactly what we were hoping for. She truly knows how to bring out the best in people!”

Asha Bojarska-Russell, Somerset LMC

“When I received the photos, I simply couldn't believe how pleased I was with them. I was like, "wow, is that actually me?!"

I had never had professional photos before so I felt all fidgety and awkward but Celie has a knack of making you feel at ease in front of the camera. So much so that I actually found myself enjoying it.

She's a fantastic photographer, a fantastic person, and the difference her photos have made to my online confidence is second to none.”

“Having worked with Celie on two shoots I can confidently say that she is not only really warm and friendly but a professional and highly skilled creative

It can be quite an intimate experience having your photographs taken, and Celie has a wonderful way of putting you at ease and making the whole experience fun and enjoyable. I have worked with her for both professional and personal shoots and recommend her so so highly.”

FAQs

  • Yes absolutely - I've worked all over the UK. For shoots further than 20 miles from Frome, a travel and possible accommodation fee will be added.

  • Often my client’s (or their pal’s) house, workplace, or out in nature is a great place to start, but we can also hire a Shoot House Location or a Photography Studio.

    I have lots of great resources available in the Welcome Pack you receive when you book in too.

    Read my blog post about how to choose a location to get started!

  • All Portrait Session bookings require a non-refundable deposit of £150 to secure the selected date. The remaining balance is due 7 days before the session. 

  • Portrait Session clients will receive their image selection within a week, with all final images delivered a week after this.

    Images are always delivered via a beautiful, private online gallery where you can download Web and High Resolution images

  • All final images will be individually edited to produce the best exposure and colour balance as well as little tweaks to improve the composition and remove distractions.

    Because I truly believe that everyone is beautiful and deserves to be photographed authentically, I don't alter any permanent features like body shape or teeth.

    If you are unfortunate enough to wake up with a raging spot on our shoot day, I will make sure that it's not in any of your final photos!

  • Yes absolutely! Please use the contact form here to tell me about your idea.
