Virtual Shoots

Professional photography, wherever you are

A remote session directed live from London — no studio, no travel, and no need to be in the same country.

A shoot that comes to you

A virtual shoot began as a response to lockdown restrictions, and turned out to be something people genuinely preferred. You're photographed in the comfort of your own home, with me directing the whole session remotely.

Easier if you're camera-shy

Being guided through a phone in your own home can feel far less exposing than an in-person shoot. There's no studio, no crew, and no one else in the room.

Distance stops being a problem

If you live abroad but want to work with me, a virtual shoot removes travel and hotel costs from the equation entirely.

One photographer for a global team

If your team is spread across different countries, a virtual shoot lets one photographer create consistent headshots and branding images for everyone — without the travel budget.

FAQs

Virtual Shoot Questions

How does a virtual photoshoot actually work?+

Both of us connect through an application that lets me take high-resolution images remotely using your phone's camera. I direct the session live — framing, posing, expression and lighting — exactly as I would in person. You don't operate the camera; I do.

What happens before the shoot?+

We have a planning call to discuss the best locations in your space, the light at different times of day, and what you need the images for. We build a shot list from that, so the day of the shoot runs smoothly rather than being worked out on the spot.

What quality can I expect?+

The images are high resolution and professionally edited and colour graded, the same as an in-person session. They're delivered through a private online gallery you can download from.

How long until I receive my images?+

Your images are ready two weeks after the shoot, delivered in a private online gallery.

Does the technique for looking natural still work remotely?+

Yes. The Emotional Memory Technique I explain in my TEDx talk isn't dependent on being in the room — it's about expression and connection. I've photographed a client in Mexico from the UK using it, with the same transformation I'd expect in person.
