Headshots and Lifestyle Portraits

In today’s digital world, your online presence is your first impression.

Before someone picks up the phone to call you, they’ve likely already looked you up online. Your website, LinkedIn, Instagram, Facebook, and other platforms are powerful tools that represent you and your brand—often before you’ve even had a chance to speak for yourself.

That’s why the way you present yourself online matters. A strong, professional image can be the difference between winning a client or losing them to a competitor. It can help land that job interview—or silently cost you an opportunity you didn’t even know existed.

We specialize in creating standout, high-impact images for:

• LinkedIn profiles.

• Social media use (Facebook, Instagram, X, Tik Tok etc)

• Business websites and email signatures

• Magazine articles and trade publications

• Staff photos for boardrooms and websites

• Billboards and advertising campaigns

• Estate agent boards and marketing materials

• CD & DVD covers, and more

At Crafford Studio Photography, we do more than just headshots.
We offer tailored Personal Branding and Lifestyle Portrait sessions designed to showcase you at your best. Whether you’re a lawyer, entrepreneur, musician, model, or professional updating your CV, we’ll create photos that elevate your personal brand and set you apart.

Personal branding is about managing your name – even if you don’t own a business – in a world of misinformation, disinformation, and semi-permanent Google records. Going on a date? Chances are that your “blind” date has Googled your name. Going to a job interview? Ditto. – Tim Ferriss

Life isn’t about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself. – George Bernhard Shaw

It’s important to build a personal brand because it’s the only thing you’re going to have.Your reputation online, and in the new business world is pretty much the game, so you’ve got to be a good person. You can’t hide anything, and more importantly, you’ve got to be out there at some level. – Gary Vaynerchuk

Are you looking to get headshots taken for LinkedIn or your social media?  But you don’t want the same shots on a standard background that everyone else has?

At Crafford Studio we have the best solution for you. We can photograph you and put your headshot photo onto any background you might want. You name it, we can do it. For instance, we will photograph you on a  New York skyline and match the lighting. It would be as if you were actually in New York and belong in the scene.

This is an exclusive style and technique. It is ideal for that businessman/woman that wants their photo to stand out above the rest.
