Overview
A portrait worthy of the page.
Author portraits for books, events, and press with thoughtful presence.
Readers meet your face on jackets, festival pages, and newsletters. The portrait should feel like the sentences they already trust.
We plan horizontal and vertical crops so designers are not fighting your hair or shoulders later.
Fiction and non-fiction authors need different tonal defaults; we ask which world you write in.
Publishers sometimes need two seasons of jacket crops; mention hardback versus paperback safe zones when you book.

Approach
A portrait worthy of the page.
Publishers sometimes want negative space for title type. We shoot with margin even if you only see a tight crop today.
Black and white author portraits are optional and created from colour masters.
Session
Quiet focus, minimal fuss.
You can read a paragraph aloud before we start if that centres you. Many authors prefer that to small talk.
We avoid flashy lighting that dates quickly on backlist titles years later.
Prepare
Glasses, grooming, and props.
Bring the glasses you wear at events. We manage reflections instead of asking you to squint without them.
Books as props are optional and should be your own titles when visible.
Book
Author audience bookings.
Festival portrait days can be back-to-back; arrive with wardrobe steamed if you are travelling.
We can hold delivery until your publisher lifts embargo when dates are agreed in advance.
