White Background – Ideal for LinkedIn Headshots and Corporate Profiles

Bright, minimalist headshots that feel fresh and professional. A white backdrop creates a clean, modern look that’s ideal for business websites, company directories and LinkedIn profiles.

Grey or Gradient Backgrounds – Professional Headshots for Teams and Executives

A refined, versatile look that keeps the focus on the individual while adding subtle depth. These headshots project confidence and approachability — perfect for leadership teams, business owners, and cohesive company branding.

Popular with Yorkshire businesses, these portraits are ideal for corporate websites, press releases, and LinkedIn profiles.

Coloured Backgrounds – Creative and Expressive Headshots

Vibrant or pastel backgrounds can be used to complement wardrobe, makeup, or skin tone, creating a coordinated and distinctive look. These headshots are perfect for actors, models, business owners, and creative professionals who want colour to express personality and mood while maintaining a polished, professional finish.

Coloured backgrounds are also popular for marketing teams and branding sessions, helping portraits stand out in online profiles, media, and company websites.

Dark and Moody Backgrounds – Personal Branding Headshots with Impact

Professional headshots with controlled lighting and rich, dark background tones offer a distinctive, dramatic look. This style adds depth, shadow, and character — a popular choice for entrepreneurs, creatives, and artists who want to build a confident, memorable personal brand. This low-key style is also a firm favourite for actors in more serious roles and, of course, rock musicians.

These portraits work especially well on personal websites, press profiles, and creative portfolios where individuality is key.
