FOR YOU
THE PORTRAIT EXPERIENCE YOU DIDN’T KNOW THAT YOU NEEDED
It’s no secret that you’re the one the one who is normally in charge of the camera. You’re the one capturing all the memories and gathering them up to keep safe for your family to enjoy.
Aside from your wedding or family photos, you don’t really have any photographs of yourself that you’re proud to share anymore. You’re starting to feel a little invisible in your own world.
But there is not getting away from it—time definitely is not slowing down.
What if you had the opportunity to step out of the shadows and into your own spotlight? To know that even though you don’t need a transformation, you can still enjoy being pampered and having a makeover? To give yourself permission to be captured exquisitely and exactly as you are: confident and beyond comparison?
It’s about discovering who you want to be and your own self-worth and it allows you to be celebrated and cherished, not only by yourself but by those closest to you for a long time after you’ve gone.
EXCEPTIONAL EDITORIAL
Get browsing John Lewis Rental and start practicing your smize.
I keep my contemporary signature portrait sessions relaxed and fun.
You aren’t responsible for anything other than being present. That means not having to worry about whether your makeup will look like you or knowing how to pose. I have a team professional hair & make-up there at your beck and call and I will pose you right down to your micro expression on your face. There is no such thing as being photogenic, just having the right team around you!
You’ll be able to shine without feeling silly or self-indulgent.
The result: an empowering portrait experience that showcases you in a way you’ve never seen yourself before — whether eu natural or glam.
You’ll be waling away with magazine worthy, printed images that will hang on your walls for generations to come, telling the story of who you are and how you want to be remembered.
Are you ready for it?

As someone who is renowned for taking a terrible photo, I was delighted to have a professional work their magic creating something I actually liked… and work her magic she did! I have to say way more goes into having a portrait session than I could have possibly imagined. Claire made me feel completely at ease and totally comfortable throughout the shoot and that really does show through the lens.

This style of photography is not something I have ever done before but Claire put me at ease and produced some beautiful images for me. I don’t think I’ve ever felt this photogenic! Thanks.
