Laura Shimili Mears, Photographer in London capturing stand-out images for expert Personal Brands.

Your expertise deserves to be seen and look as impactful online as it actually is!

We all have a Personal Brand - it is How People See You.

Does your profile reflect who you are? The years of experience, knowledge and  skills you have spent time and effort perfecting?

Whether you are a solicitor, coach or therapist, creative or small business owner, your life is a tapestry of experiences. You have overcome a lot to be where you are today.

A “vague” profile is exactly that… “vague”.

If your profile doesn’t reflect who you are it’s time for a refresher.

Having extraordinary images shouldn't be an after-thought or feel complicated

Naturally not many people enjoy having their photos taken. Some people call it vain, some feel uncomfortable and some avoid it.

My clients have been there. Starting a new venture after years in corporate. Looking to grow in the workplace and realising their profile has not been their focus as much as their work. Launching a brand and growing it. 

To create a profile that works for you is simpler than you think.

Once you land here I can take it from there. Get in touch to discuss your profile.

"I gave AI a go — and nothing ticked all the boxes. I then booked a professional headshot session with Laura and had a wonderful time, with great results. Laura took her time to walk me through the process, never rushed me and her recommendations were confident throughout. Exactly what I was looking for, with a swift turnaround on edits."

How I create stunning images for clients.

It is simple - a great photoshoot starts before you arrive. It is my job to share the photoshoot guide and brief clients beforehand.

01

You are prepared and know what happens before we start.

02

You are clear about the looks, branding and bring your favourite outfits.

03

We have discussed what the photos are for, so every shot has a purpose.

From the start, the session is tailored around your goals and the next phase you are focusing on.
