How Much Do Corporate Headshots Cost in London? (2026 Pricing Guide)

Quick answer: At Lia Photography, individual professional headshots in London start from £75. Corporate team headshots are priced individually according to the number of employees, photography location, session duration and final images required.

If you're planning to update your company's staff photographs, organise executive portraits or book a professional headshot for yourself, understanding what affects the price can help you choose the right photography service.

In this guide, we'll explain individual and corporate headshot pricing, what is typically included in a session and how to get an accurate quotation for your business.

How Much Does a Professional Headshot Cost in London?

Professional headshot prices vary depending on the photographer, session duration, number of final photographs, editing requirements and whether the shoot takes place in a studio or at another location.

At Lia Photography, we offer three individual headshot packages.

Package	Price	Session duration	Edited photographs
Mini	£75	20 minutes	1
Standard	£150	45 minutes	3
Premium	£250	90 minutes	6

For individual sessions, outdoor or location photography is available for an additional £50.

Mini Headshot Session — £75

The Mini package is suitable for professionals who need one updated photograph for LinkedIn, a company website, professional directory or CV.

The 20-minute session includes one professionally edited photograph.

Standard Headshot Session — £150

The Standard package provides a 45-minute session with three edited photographs.

This is a practical option for professionals who want different expressions or compositions for LinkedIn, business profiles and company websites.

Premium Headshot Session — £250

The Premium package includes a 90-minute photography session and six edited photographs.

It's particularly suitable for executives, consultants, entrepreneurs and personal brands who need a wider selection of professional portraits.

How Much Do Corporate Team Headshots Cost?

Corporate headshot photography is usually priced differently from individual portrait sessions.

For example, photographing 30 employees at one office is not the same as booking 30 separate individual appointments.

An organised company session can allow multiple employees to be photographed using a consistent lighting setup, background and photography style.

At Lia Photography, corporate team photography is quoted according to the specific requirements of the business.

What Affects the Cost of Corporate Headshots?

1. Number of employees

A team of five people requires a different schedule from a company with 50 or 100 employees.

The total number of participants affects the photography time, planning and image delivery requirements.

2. Photography location

Corporate headshots can be arranged at your office or another agreed location in London.

On-site photography can be particularly convenient for companies because employees don't need to travel to a separate photography studio.

3. Photography style

Some companies prefer traditional headshots against a consistent neutral background.

Others want natural portraits photographed in their office environment.

The preferred style determines the lighting, background and equipment requirements.

4. Number of edited images

Some businesses require one final photograph per employee, while others need multiple images for their website, LinkedIn and marketing materials.

5. Additional photography

Executive portraits, leadership team photographs and workplace branding images may be included in a wider photography brief.

These additional requirements should be discussed before the quote is prepared.

What Is Included in a Corporate Headshot Photography Session?

A professional corporate headshot project involves more than simply taking photographs.

At Lia Photography, the process is organised around five stages.

1. Initial Enquiry and Consultation

We begin by discussing your company's requirements.

This includes the number of employees, photography location, intended use of the images and preferred visual style.

If your business already has a photography style or brand guidelines, we can discuss how the new photographs should fit alongside your existing images.

2. Planning the Photography Session

Before the shoot, we agree on the practical arrangements.

For office photography, this may include choosing a suitable room, arranging the lighting setup and creating a schedule for employees.

Planning is especially important when photographing larger teams because it helps reduce disruption to the working day.

3. The Photography Session

During the shoot, each person receives guidance on posture, positioning and facial expression.

Not everyone feels comfortable in front of a camera, so clear direction is an important part of the process.

The objective is to create confident, approachable and professional portraits while maintaining a consistent style across the team.

4. Image Selection and Professional Editing

Selected photographs are edited with attention to exposure, colour, skin tones and overall presentation.

Professional retouching should enhance the image while preserving a natural appearance.

5. Final Digital Delivery

The finished photographs are delivered digitally in the agreed formats.

They can then be used across company websites, LinkedIn profiles, professional directories, business proposals and other marketing materials.

The number of photographs and delivery timeframe are agreed before the shoot.

Is It Cheaper to Photograph All Employees on the Same Day?

For many businesses, organising one corporate photography day can be more cost-efficient than arranging multiple separate sessions.

This is because the photographer can prepare the lighting and background once, then photograph employees according to an agreed schedule.

However, the final cost depends on the number of people, time required and photography requirements.

A single session may also help create a more consistent appearance across your company's staff photographs.

For growing companies, future sessions can be planned to follow the same visual style when new employees join.

Is On-Site Corporate Headshot Photography Worth It?

On-site corporate headshots can be a practical option for businesses with several employees.

Instead of asking staff to travel individually to a studio, the photographer brings the necessary equipment to the workplace.

This offers several advantages:

• Employees can attend their scheduled session and return to work.

• The company can coordinate photography around existing working hours.

• Lighting, backgrounds and framing can remain consistent.

• HR and marketing teams can organise multiple portraits in one session.

• The photographs can be planned around the company's brand identity.

For larger teams, a well-organised on-site session can save considerable time.

How Do You Get an Accurate Corporate Headshot Quote?

Before requesting a quotation, it's helpful to prepare the following information:

• Approximate number of employees requiring photographs.

• Your office location or preferred photography venue.

• Preferred date or timeframe.

• Whether you need individual portraits, group photographs or both.

• Number of edited images required per person.

• Where the photographs will be used.

• Any existing brand guidelines or photography references.

You don't need to have every detail finalised before contacting us.

We can discuss your requirements and recommend a suitable approach.

Are Professional Corporate Headshots Worth the Investment?

Your company's photographs often form part of its first impression.

Potential clients, business partners and prospective employees may see your team photographs on your website, LinkedIn or professional directories before meeting anyone in person.

Professional corporate headshots help present your employees in a consistent and polished way.

They can also be used across multiple business channels, making them a useful investment beyond a single website update.

The objective is not simply to create attractive portraits, but to produce photographs that support your company's professional presentation.
