It was my first time having professional headshots done and it was made all the easier by Andrej. He was polite professional, friendly and his work was amazing. He guided me through poses, looks, tips and tricks for facial expressions. Would recommend to anyone wether its your first time or 100th. Great photographer and person More...

What a great experience. Over the years I've done numerous headshots sessions with different photographers, and this was by far the best. Andrej really knows what he is doing and understands what actors want from a headshot session. He has a brilliant way of putting you at your ease. He gives lots of advice on tricks of the trade when being photographed, many of which were new to me, and the end product speaks for itself. My agent is also delighted with the results. The hardest part was trying to decide which of the fabulous range of pictures to post on Spotlight. More...

Andrej was awesome!! Not only did he travel to me but he also set up his portable studio in my workplace. I was super nervous at the start of the shoot but he was very helpful and guided me through different looks and poses, professional with a perfect mix of banter and humour too. I am in love with the photos and thank you Andrej, I will see you in another 4 years when the shots need updating again 😂❤️ More...

An excellent photographer that was very easy to work with. He explained things to me to help me feel more comfortable and had an excellent time during the shoot. Just received the finished products and they are much better than I imagined. Well worth the price if need more photos in the future would definitely be going back to him. More...

Andrej did a wonderful job with my photos. I wanted quite a specific look and he researched it beforehand and captured it perfectly on the day with lighting and in post. His coaching during the shoot was great and helped us to achieve the desired look. I couldn't recommend him more highly. More...

Honestly, Andrej is a brilliant headshot photographer! From the moment I opened contact with him he guided me through the process and the best ways to achieve my goals. During the shoot itself he gave invaluable tips about creating the best look and made me feel at ease at all times. I would absolutely recommend Andrej, he is clearly passionate about what he does and his enthusiasm for getting the best headshot for your needs is so uplifting! Cheers Andrej :) More...

It was an absolute joy to work with Andrej. He made me feel completely at ease through the entire process; from the minute I arrived to when I received the finished set of prints. His passion and dedication to his craft shone through as we tried a multitude of various combinations of lighting, angles and backgrounds to achieve a variety of different looks. His direction was clear and concise, and he was also willing to try suggestions I had, which I found particularly refreshing. It was a personal challenge for me to have a front facing shot taken. My face isn’t symmetrical, and my nose and chin are fairly prominent, but Andrej very kindly reminded me that to be a character actress, those particular features are the ones that make me stand out, and could possibly be exactly what a casting director is looking for. His kind words, gentle encouragement and sense of humour, as well as the very useful insider tips he shared were invaluable to me.Andrej’s communication throughout was outstanding, and his attention to detail absolutely excellent. He not only provided me with vertical/portrait and horizontal web friendly format images, but also high resolution copies suitable for print, ensuring I was completely satisfied with my final decision prior to, and after he sent the final selection.I found his professional but relaxed, friendly manner to be the perfect balance needed to achieve the quality standard of results I was aiming for, am absolutely delighted with the results and highly recommend him to anyone looking for not only fantastic pictures, but also a thoroughly enjoyable and enlightening experience!Thank you so much Andrej, you’re absolute star!

I was continually astounded as I reviewed the photographs taken by Andrej at our engagement party, the moments that were captured completely encapsulated the happy atmosphere that we felt during our special day. How he managed to capture so much without being intrusive at any time just shows the skill of the man and his quality is second to none. Thank you Andrej for doing such an amazing job and I can relax safe in the knowledge that you will be there to capture our wedding day too. More...

Andrej was an absolute gem! He made me feel so comfortable and relaxed in front of the camera and that's so important to me, as I was a little nervous at first because it was my first set of headshots. He gave me some great advice and actually explained how to improve the shot; I will most definitely take with me because I honestly couldn't be happier with my shots. He's truly captured something subtle and special in my shots and I know I'll be getting more jobs because of it. I will definitely be shoving my actor friends in your direction for their next set of headshots, I know they won't regret it. Thanks again, Andrej! More...

'Working with Andrej was a fantastic experience. He listened carefully when I talked about my business and the kind of shots I was looking for to fit that image and complement my website.
He gave plenty of great advice before and during the session, and went out of his way to get the perfect headshots that I was looking for. The whole process was thoroughly relaxing and enjoyable. I highly recommend Andrej's methods as well as his work. Delighted with the results. Thank you so much!'

What do you love most about your job?
To see the transformation of people in front of my camera from camera-shy, not knowing what to do, to their best versions of themselves for me to capture. It is often a journey to get there as we all are a bit (or more than just a bit!) nervous and self-conscious in front of a camera. But the effort makes it all even better. I coach and guide everyone to make them look competent and yet easy to work with. Confident yet approachable.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I've been always fascinated by human face, different features and what they can convey. Merging this with the need to be represented everywhere people cannot be in person, i.e. their headshot photographs, made sense to offer impactful headshots as a service.
Why should our clients choose you?
I take it as my responsibility to make people in front of my lens look like one of the best versions of themselves. I guide and coach them to get there, regardless of how camera-shy they may be or if they don't know what to do. Even if they say that they are not photogenic!
Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.
I provide services either in my studio in Grantham but I also travel to clients if that's more convenient for them.
