Outstanding. Peter came to my house, set up speedily and answered all my questions. His calm manner helped me relax and I actually ended up enjoying the session, something I never thought I'd say about someone taking photos of me. Highly, highly recommended.

What a wonderful experience I had. I was initially nervous about the day, but Peter put me at ease, and with simple, easy to follow instructions, the results are exactly what I wanted. I would highly recommend him to anyone who needs photography and recordings for their business.

Jean-Paul Bayley photographed during a personal branding session in Exeter

One session.
Every profile, covered.

Jean-Paul Bayley is a business agility coach, Professional Scrum Trainer, and conference speaker who presents in the UK, USA, Ireland, and Germany. He needed images that worked across half a dozen platforms: his Scrum.org and ProKanban trainer profiles, the Actineo Consulting website, LinkedIn, and speaker bios.

A single personal branding session in Exeter covered all of it. A mix of portraits and working shots gave him a consistent set of images he could drop into wherever his name appears.

Why Local Insight Matters

Exeter's unique business culture blends academic rigour with enterprising businesses. Your headshots should reflect both credibility and approachability, qualities local professionals understand well.

Whether you're updating your LinkedIn profile or refreshing your website, the right headshot helps people trust you before you've even spoken. That's what I focus on: images that feel natural and make the right first impression.

Innovation Hub Advantage

Whether you're an entrepreneur, healthcare professional, or academic researcher in Exeter, your headshots need to convey both expertise and approachability. I specialise in capturing that balance with images that feel authentic and confident.

Local Understanding, Global Standards

From Met Office meteorologists to NHS healthcare leaders, Devon professionals work at the forefront of their fields. I create headshots that reflect this expertise whilst maintaining the warmth and approachability that Exeter's community values.

Exeter Headshot FAQs

Here are the questions I get asked most often. If yours isn't here, just get in touch and I'll be happy to help.

I hate having my photo taken...

Don't worry, you're not alone. Many people tell me this during our first chat. Through gentle guidance and seeing your photos as we go, you'll discover how comfortable getting great headshots can be. We'll take our time, with no rushing or pressure. If you'd like some practical tips, check out my guide for nervous clients.

What happens during my session?

We start with a relaxed conversation, no cameras yet. Once you're feeling comfortable, we'll begin capturing photos, showing you the results as we go. This lets you see how great you look in real-time, building your confidence throughout the session. You'll have plenty of time to change outfits and review images.

What should I wear?

After booking, you'll receive a comprehensive style guide. The key is choosing outfits that make you feel confident. Bring options and we can decide what works best during your session. We'll look at colours, styles, and what suits your industry. For detailed tips, see my guide to headshot styling.

How much space do you need?

A standard meeting room works perfectly, but I can adapt to most spaces. I've created great headshots in all sorts of locations. If you're unsure about your space, let's discuss it during your consultation. There's usually a good solution.

Is there a travel fee within Exeter?

No. Travel within Exeter is included in your session fee. If you're just outside the city, get in touch and we'll sort something out.

Will my photos be retouched?

Yes, but gently retouched so you still look like yourself. Think of it as you on your best day, not over-edited or artificial. You'll receive your completed images within 2 working days, ready to use across all your platforms.

How long does it take?

Your session will be 60–90 minutes. This gives us plenty of time to help you feel comfortable, try different outfits, and review your photos. I never rush. The key to natural expressions is feeling relaxed.

Do you cover all of Exeter?

Yes, wherever you're based. Whether you're at Science Park, in the city centre, or anywhere in between, I bring the studio to you. Outside Exeter? I cover the whole South West, so let's talk about creating headshots at your location.

What's different about working with a local headshot photographer?

I know Exeter's business community well, from the University to Science Park to the professional services firms in Southernhay. That means I understand what your industry expects and can tailor the session to match.

Do you work with the research and academic community?

Yes! I regularly work with University of Exeter researchers, Science Park companies, and Met Office professionals. I understand the balance between academic credibility and approachability that these sectors require.

What makes great headshots different from ordinary photos?

It comes down to three things: proper lighting, coaching your expression so you look natural rather than posed, and knowing how the image will be used. I shoot specifically for LinkedIn, websites, and business profiles, so you get images that work everywhere you need them.

Ready to go? Start with a quick chat.

Let's get you sorted.

Most clients are in front of the camera within a week of getting in touch. Prefer to talk first? Email or call — no pressure, just a quick conversation.
