Branding & Portrait Photography That Feels Like You
by Tina Vedrine
My
Story.
Alongside my wedding and editorial work, I also offer branding and portrait photography for small business owners, entrepreneurs and creatives across Leicestershire, the Midlands and throughout the UK.
With over 14 years of experience, I create natural, expressive photography that helps you show up confidently and authentically in your business. My work is known for its energy, warmth and bold, impactful style - but more importantly, for making people feel completely at ease in front of the camera.
Over the years, I’ve worked with a wide range of people, from professional Psychologists featured in publications to influencers, creatives, and business owners across the wedding industry. No matter who I’m photographing, my approach is always the same: creating a space where you feel relaxed, comfortable, and genuinely yourself.
Most of my clients tell me they don’t usually enjoy having their photo taken. That’s exactly where I come in.
I create a calm, supportive environment where you can drop the pressure, stop performing, and simply be yourself, so we can capture portraits that actually feel like you.
You're the
business
The online space is loud and crowded — let’s create imagery that helps you stand out, feel confident, and truly be seen.
Why Branding Portrait
Photography Matters
We live in a world where people connect with people first.
Before someone reads your website or enquires about your services, they’ve already formed an impression based on your imagery.
Your photos are often the first introduction to your business and in many cases, the deciding factor in whether someone chooses to work with you.
Strong branding portraits help you:
-
Build trust instantly
-
Show the personality behind your business
-
Stand out in a crowded online space
-
Create consistency across your website and social media
-
Attract the right clients (not just more clients)
This isn’t about looking polished for the sake of it, it’s about creating a genuine visual connection with your audience.
"Tina has an instinct for people, how they move, laugh, connect, and relax and it shows in her work. She brings warmth, humour, calm confidence, and just the right amount of gentle direction."
---William Howe
What I create
My branding photography sessions are designed to reflect you, your work, and your world.
This can include:
-
Natural, expressive portraits
-
Lifestyle imagery in your workspace or environment
-
Behind-the-scenes storytelling
-
Detail shots of your process, product or service
-
Creative content for websites and social media
Whether you’re a therapist, designer, coach, maker or creative entrepreneur, your images are tailored to your personality and your brand - not a one-size-fits-all formula.
"The whole experience was incredible from start to finish. Tina put so much thought and care into every detail, from really considering the space we were using to revisiting the inspiration mood board so she fully understood my vision. It felt like she was just as invested in bringing my ideas to life as I was.
And beyond her obvious talent, Tina is just the loveliest person to be around. She has the most infectious energy (and genuinely the best laugh!), and she has this amazing way of making you feel completely comfortable in front of the camera. She guides you with poses and angles so naturally, and the way she compliments and encourages you feels so authentic that you can’t help but feel confident and excited about what you’re creating together."

My Approach
I’m often told I have a calming, disarming presence, which helps people relax quickly and forget about the camera.
That’s where the real magic happens.
My approach is gentle, guided and collaborative. I’ll direct you when needed, but I’ll also give you space to simply be yourself so we can capture natural, unforced moments.
I want you to leave your session feeling confident, seen, and excited to share your images.
The Process
1
Firstly
We’ll start with a short questionnaire when you first reach out, for me to understand you, your business, and what you want to achieve from your images.
From there, we can create a simple mood board and plan the direction of your shoot - whether that’s a full branding session or something more focused.
We’ll also chat through locations, styling, and the overall feel, so everything feels aligned with you and your brand.

During
On the day, I’ll guide you throughout so you feel relaxed and confident in front of the camera.
Depending on your session, we’ll create a mix of:
-
Natural, expressive portraits
-
You in your working environment, outdoors or hired studio
-
Lifestyle imagery that shows what you do
-
Detail shots that help tell your story
The aim is always the same - to create imagery that feels natural, authentic, and true to you.

After
You’ll receive a curated online gallery of professionally edited and re-touched images, ready to download and use across your website, social media, and marketing.
Your images are designed to elevate your online presence, strengthen your brand, and help you show up consistently and confidently.
Based in Leicestershire, working across the UK
I’m based in Leicestershire and regularly work with clients across the Midlands and beyond.
If you’re further afield, I’m always happy to travel - great branding photography shouldn’t be limited by location.
