Cost guide · London 2026
A personal branding photoshoot in London starts from £600 for a half-day session and runs to £900–£1,500 for a full day. The fee covers the photographer's time and a set of retouched images; studio hire, makeup and extra looks are added on top.
A typical from-£600 half-day personal-branding session includes pre-shoot planning, around 3–4 hours of shooting, 1–2 looks, and a set of professionally retouched final images for your website, LinkedIn and socials. Direction and styling guidance are part of the session — most clients aren't models, and being directed well is half the result.
A half-day suits one person, 1–2 looks and one location or studio. A full day (£900–£1,500) suits multiple looks, a team or several locations, and gives a much larger image library to draw on across the year.
Mariya Harley runs personal-branding and portrait sessions from £600 at a West London (W14) studio or on location. See services or enquire.
