Emma popped round to my home studio (aka the kitchen) for some new headshots. We've been working together for quite a few years now and have become friends.
The beauty of developing a close working relationship with a photographer is twofold; you grow in confidence in front of the camera and I get a deeper understanding of how I can serve your brand.

For the last few months I’ve been quietly building something for female founders who are done with the content hamster wheel.

It’s called the Founder Content Retainer — and it’s exactly what it sounds like.

Once a month I come to you. We shoot stills, short-form video and pieces to camera — everything you need to show up consistently online, made in a single afternoon.

No more propping your phone against a lamp. No more wondering what to post. No more going quiet when life gets busy.

Just your brand, looking brilliant, every single month.

Founding member spots are limited to 5 per tier — and I’d love one of them to be you.
Comment retainer for details ❤️

This is the third time we've worked together! I met Emma 8 years ago when she popped by for a headshot session and we been working together ever since.

Thinking of booking a headshot but unsure what to expect... the comfort of a lived in home with the very best photographic equipment and lighting set up.

My first proper photography job, about 25 years ago, was for the South London Press. I walked in off the street and asked for a job. They said ‘Start tomorrow…if you’re not good there’ll be no more work.’

I used to get a fax every morning with up to 12 jobs on it, from photographing prize-winning vegetables to door-knocking asking a bereaved mum if I could take a portrait of her holding a framed photo of her teenage son, who’d been stabbed to death the night before. It was a challenging job but I learned how to focus and get it done.

Fresh headshots for the brilliant team at Amaze Sussex 🧡

Consistent, professional, and (most importantly) everyone actually looks like themselves — relaxed, confident, camera-shy-no-more.

Here's what their Head of Fundraising and Marketing, Hannah Allbrook, had to say: "Justine took headshots for us at Amaze, a local charity. She was brilliant to work with and the team spoke very positively about the experience of being photographed by her."

If your team has been putting off proper headshots (we all have that one photo from a 2019 conference lanyard), let's fix that. Link in bio to get started.

I’ve spent years refining this.

The lighting setup in my studio isn’t off-the-shelf. It’s the result of years of testing, adjusting, and obsessing over what actually makes people look like themselves — not washed out, not harsh, just genuinely good.

Most people who’ve had a bad headshot blame themselves. It’s almost never them.

Book a session or bring your whole team — I’ll bring the light.

A good headshot doesn’t need to try hard.

Just you, looking like you.

The problem with most bad headshots isn’t the photography — it’s that nobody told you what to do, nobody helped you relax, and nobody noticed when the tension crept back in between frames.

I work with female founders, corporate professionals and teams across Brighton, Hove and London.
