He listens to you and takes it on to help produce some of the best pictures I’ve ever seen of myself and my family
He’s brilliant and his work no exception to his brilliance. Long may I continue to capture my life in pictures at the hands of Sean and Essay… what a way to tell my story. Keep doing it Sean – thank you. Juliette.

HEADSHOTS
Your Headshot should be about you and also tell a story of who you are and what you are about. A modern headshot is more of an environmental/ Lifestyle Photo Shoot than an old aged studio shot on a white background. This speaks volumes about you to your customers – chat to us so we can show you off to your customers.
No studio photos here just a true honest portrait of an MD at home in his workplace as it should be.
Authenticity from the outset in a Headshot is where the future is at
