Personal branding sessions that provide a beautifully curated library of images that offer style and consistency to your business. Make sure your website and socials truly reflect you!
As business owners we invest so much of ourselves into our business, let’s dot the i’s and cross the t’s, and make sure we have headshots that inspire success.
Once you’ve decided on your session type, or we’ve had an initial discovery call to chat over which shoot experience most aligns with you, then the process begins & excitement starts:

After your Empowerment, Boudoir or Maternity shoot, you will be invited to book your reveal session, where you will see your incredible gallery for the first time.
It’s during this appointment that you can choose the images you wish to keep, select the best package suited to your needs and order products that celebrate you and your stunning photographs.
Remember, you’re not investing in this session to have digital images sat on your phone, to one day be lost, we want to print them, celebrate them and create a lasting legacy just for you.
the Bespoke product & wall art Collection
Your beautiful images deserve so much more than to be stored on your phone and buried on your iCloud. Transforming your images into art, is the way they were meant to be loved. Celebrating your self worth, valuing your identity and having a legacy you can hold in your hand and be proud of, is so important here at Narrative London.
After your shoot, we will book in your Reveal Session, where you get to see your beautiful gallery for the first time. It’s here that you can visualise images as art, and see the stunning product collection first hand.

I think if you have already begun the search for your photographer, then you’ve already taken some big steps in the right direction! You already know deep down that this is something you’d really like for yourself, so trust the process, and more importantly your photographer, to help guide you throughout and make the experience something you’ll be SO proud of!
-
It’s so important you have a photographer you feel deep down is right for you and your needs. It’s better to invest in the experience you truly want, than someone closer to home that was more just for convenience. I’d love to chat about a way we can make a session work to your needs, if that’s a weekend shoot to make travel more manageable, or perhaps incorporate a shoot into plans you already have to visit the city. Let’s chat!

My studio is located in South London, in a lovely creative & busy community. There are great train, tube and bus links, with Ubers and Black Cabs available at most nearby stations. There is also a hotel just a stones throw from my studio - you can even see it from my window! So if you’re travelling from afar or arriving late, you can bunk up there and know you’re right where you need to be. I share a PDF guide with all my clients, with travel and location info before your shoot - so don’t worry, I got you.
-
We got this!
Once you’re all booked in, I’ll share a comprehensive Style Guide with you, with lots of advice about how to prepare for your shoot - from skincare to wardrobe ideas. I’ll share my top tips on things to consider wearing, and even share some brands to try for things like lingerie. I was a Fashion Stylist for 10 years before my 10 year career as a photographer, so I’m always happy to chat through fits with you, before the big day. -
100% no! These sessions are for you to explore your confidence and sensuality. If that means wearing an incredible full length dress and feeling sexy as hell, then I’m here for it. If that means wearing no clothes at all and celebrating every curve, then I’m fully respectful of that decision too. My goal is to create art, that you will fall in love with.
-
I want to provide a safe and welcoming space for you during your session and I understand that new spaces, people and experiences can be overwhelming. Whilst I wouldn’t perhaps advise bringing a chaperone, I also respect your wishes if you want to have someone there. Perhaps we can discuss how this looks for you prior to the session eg. someone can arrive with you and chat with us as make-up is carried out, then there is the option for them to visit a local coffee shop, giving us the space and privacy to focus on you during the shoot.
Still unsure of which session might be for you?
You can email any time, or reach out to book a call. I’d love to hear more about what sessions you’re interested in and how Narrative can help tell your story.
