Natural and relaxed headshots for professionals in Wellington

Headshots and business portraits for professionals.


I genuinely dislike having my own photo taken — so I've built my headshot sessions around making the whole thing as painless as possible. Quick, relaxed, and natural, so you end up with professional headshots that actually feel like you, on a really good day!

Based in Kāpiti, I work with organisations and professionals all around Wellington. Entrepreneurs or creatives who need LinkedIn headshots, business portraits for their website, marketing/communications material, or email signatures — without the stiff, corporate look.

Who are these sessions for?

These sessions work well for:

  • small business owners

  • consultants

  • creatives

  • trades professionals

  • coaches

  • professionals updating LinkedIn

  • organisations that need consistent headshots across their leadership teams.

FAQs

Headshot Photography in Wellington – Common Questions

If you're thinking about updating your professional photos, these are some of the most common questions people ask before booking a headshot session in Wellington.

  • How much do professional headshots cost in Wellington?

    Headshot sessions in Wellington range from $180–$600 depending on the photographer, type of session, and number of images included. My sessions start from $180, and are designed to be easy, relaxed and natural.

  • What if I hate having my photo taken?

    Most clients feel exactly the same way. So my sessions are very relaxed and guided, I focus on getting those natural and warm expressions.

  • Where do headshot sessions take place?

    Sessions can take place at your workplace or a natural outdoor setting. If neither of those suit I can organise a session at my home (with beautiful natural light) in Kāpiti.

    I work fast and save you time, individual headshot sessions won’t take more than 10-15 mins. If you are a large group, once set up, allow 2-3 mins per person.

  • "Working with Jenny is easy. She somehow got me so relaxed that I finally got a decent pic of myself smiling! This has been a vital element in my campaign. Plus she knew the right place to go for the weather conditions so we could make the most of the limited time we had. I fully recommend Jenny for photography - she is talented and a joy to work with."
