I am Steve Lowrey, a professional photographer based at Leigh Photography Studio in Greater Manchester and the photographer behind Headshots Manchester.
Before becoming a full-time photographer, I spent more than 25 years working in the entertainment industry as an entertainment agent and promoter alongside over 20 years as a professional DJ. That experience gave me a strong understanding of publicity, personal presentation and professional image long before social media and personal branding became part of everyday business.
Today I photograph business owners, actors, performers, creatives and professionals who need strong, natural photography that genuinely represents them.
Photography sessions are available 7 days a week by appointment, including evenings.
Personal branding photography creates professional images designed to promote you and your business across websites, LinkedIn, social media and marketing material. Sessions typically include a mixture of headshots, relaxed portraits and promotional content imagery.
Not at all. Most clients are not models and many feel nervous before their session. Full guidance is provided throughout the photoshoot to help you feel comfortable and confident.
Headshots Manchester is based at Leigh Photography Studio in Greater Manchester, with easy access from Manchester, Bolton, Wigan, Warrington and surrounding areas.
