Not Just a Headshot. A Full Image Library for Your Website, LinkedIn, Social Media and PR.

Every potential client, collaborator or employer will look you up online before they ever get in touch. If your LinkedIn has no photo, your website uses stock images, or your social media is a mix of cropped group shots and five year old selfies, you are making their decision for them before you have had the chance to speak.

I’m Nate Lansdell, a personal branding photographer based in Peterborough and a professional member of the British Institute of Professional Photography (BIPP). I work with founders, consultants, coaches, authors and professionals across Cambridge, the East Midlands and the wider UK who need images that actually do a job across their marketing. Every session starts with a brand review and a shot list so we know exactly what we are producing and why. You leave with a full library of images planned for your website, LinkedIn, social media, email marketing and PR, not just a handful of headshots and a hope for the best.

Case Study: Daniel MB Therapy

Daniel is a trainee psychotherapist launching his private practice in Rutland. He came to me with a fully formed creative vision and a brand voice built around honesty, presence and depth. We shot across his practice office and the meadows beside the River Welland in Stamford, creating a grounded, nature-led image library that reflects his therapeutic approach rather than defaulting to the usual polished corporate look.

Personal branding Photography FAQ's

Personal branding photography focuses on showcasing you, your personality, values, and style, to connect with your audience. It’s ideal for entrepreneurs, freelancers, coaches, and professionals wanting to build a strong online presence.

On the other hand, commercial branding photography is more product- or business-focused, often involving teams, office spaces, and promotional materials to market a company rather than an individual.

Yes! If you’re looking for a simple, professional headshot session, I offer a tailored package for this please visit my headshot services page for prices and packages.

Your session price covers much more than just the time we spend shooting. Here’s what’s included:

  • Pre-Shoot Consultation – We’ll discuss your brand, ideal locations, outfit choices, and overall vision.
  • Photography Session A relaxed and fun shoot to capture your best angles and expressions.
  • Culling & Editing I carefully select the best images, edit them for a polished look, and ensure they align with your brand aesthetic.
  • High-Resolution Delivery You’ll receive professionally edited images in an online gallery, ready for use on your website, social media, and marketing materials.
  • Behind-the-Scenes Work This includes organizing files, retouching, colour correction, and preparing the final gallery—all of which take time to ensure you receive high-quality images.

Turnaround time is typically 7 to 10 business days, depending on the package you choose. I take care to ensure each image is professionally edited and polished, so you receive the best possible results! But I always strive to deliver quicker where I can.
