I’ve been lucky enough to work with some amazing small businesses and creatives across Bath and beyond, helping them tell their brand story through relaxed, natural and light-filled photography.

This page is packed with tips to help you get the most out of your brand shoot (hit those FAQs!) and plenty of inspiration from recent sessions
You want your brand images to feel relaxed but polished…
with zero cringe-worthy posing, just beautiful candid headshots and beautifully storytelling photos that will be right at home on your website or your socials.
You want to work with a local expert

(and knows your business like one of your team!)
Hi, I’m Lydia and I’ve been a branding photographer in and around Bath for many years.
I am lucky enough to have a network of great contacts in the Bath area and it’s one of my favourite small cities to shoot in. You can trust I’ve got the experience you need to tell the story of your business perfectly.
Relax, you’re in experienced hands!
Having worked with many businesses in Bath means I know all the best spots for photos (well away from the prying eyes!). I know where the sun will go down and the golden hour hits best and where the shade will be on hot summer days! I also happen to live just fifteen minutes away down the winding Wiltshire roads which means I can be available to shoot at short notice if required.

relaxed headshots
Bath is full of beautiful backdrops — from soft Georgian stone to leafy parks and tucked-away courtyards — all perfect for creating headshots that feel relaxed and genuine. I work with natural light and choose locations that help you feel at ease, so your photos reflect your real personality, not just a polished version of it. Whether you’re after something fresh and modern or a more classic look, we’ll find a spot in the city that suits your brand and brings out your confidence in front of the camera.

business storytelling
There’s something powerful about showing your business in action — the space you’ve created, the details that matter, and the way you connect with your clients. Brand storytelling sessions take place right inside your business, capturing the behind-the-scenes moments that help people get to know, like and trust you. Whether you run a cosy studio, a stylish salon or a vibrant shared space in Bath, we’ll use your environment to tell a story that feels real, personal and totally unique to your brand.

on location
Great brand photography is all about context — and there’s nothing better than capturing your food or products in the environment where they truly shine. Whether it’s beautifully plated dishes in your restaurant, hand-crafted products in your studio, or styled flatlays in a space that reflects your brand, shooting on location adds authenticity and depth to your images.
I’ll help you plan a session that not only showcases what you create, but tells the story behind it — with natural light, thoughtful styling and plenty of personality.

for social media
Keeping up with content can feel never-ending, but a well-planned brand shoot can give you a whole library of fresh, on-brand images to use across your social media. Whether you need lifestyle shots, behind-the-scenes moments, flatlays, or candid portraits, we’ll create a mix of scroll-stopping visuals that feel natural and engaging. I’ll guide you through what to wear, what to bring, and how to get the most from your shoot — so you walk away with content that’s ready to go and perfectly tailored to your brand’s personality.

Booking Lydia for brand photography was one of the best decisions we made.
We captured months of content in just one session. And in so many formats. We’ll be doing this regularly from now on.

got some
questions?
This all sounds great, but I'm not very photogenic or comfortable in front of a camera…
NONSENSE. You ARE photogenic and I will prove it to you. 99% of my clients introduce themselves to me by saying, “No, seriously, I’m like Chandler Bing IRL.”
But please don’t worry. I like to work in a nice, relaxed way. We’ll have a laugh, we’ll take some photos. It’s all very chill. And if wine will help, bring wine!
Where do shoots take place?
The shoot location is down to you, but of course I’m happy to offer advice.
I’ve often shoot brand sessions at client’s home or in their office if the light is right. Town centres & cafes can be fun too. It’s often helpful to hire a space like an airbnb, co working space or hotel room to get access to good light and to create a backdrop which elevates your brand.
Wherever we shoot it’s always essential to get permission if it’s not your own space.
What is precision retouching?
After your shoot you’ll recieve a gallery of images to choose from which have had my basic edit & colour toning applied. From these you choose your favourites and I’ll then go over these images with a fine tooth comb retouching them to make them look even better with my precision retouching.
This includes things like removing fire exit signs, a bit of skin smoothing and even teeth whitening if needed. It’s still you, but with added sparkle!
Can I have more than fifteen photos?
Absolutely. My basic package comes with fifteen images included but you can choose to purchase extras so you’ll have loads of content in the bank to repurpose over and over again.
I don't have the budget for a full brand shoot, but I love your work, what can I do?
Don’t worry, I get that as a new business start up, or just as a small business in this climate you’ll have lots of demands on your budget. Mini session mornings could be just the thing.
On a few set days per year I offer mini sessions at a location near Salisbury. Mini sessions are £195 for a 20 minute shoot & three images with precision retouching with the option to buy more if you want to. So if you just need a new bio photo, or a quick refresh on a budget, I got you. Spaces are limited so sign up to my mailing list to hear about these dates first. For more info and to join the VIP list click here.
How do we book you?
Let’s get this show on the road. Just drop me a line, I’ll ping over my brochure and we’ll go from there. 50% of the fee is due to book your shoot date the other half is due the day after.
I’m lucky enough to be kept busy, so my availability can be quite limited especially during the summer. So don’t delay getting in touch if you have a rebrand or launch coming up.
