Headshot Photography in Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire
ELEVATE YOUR PROFESSIONAL IMAGE
Most of my headshot clients don’t enjoy having their photo taken. And that’s exactly why they come to me.
I create professional headshots for business owners, professionals, and teams who want to look confident and approachable, without feeling awkward or stiff. No forced smiles. No weird poses. No ‘stand there and hope for the best’.
Just relaxed, professional images that actually look and feel like you.
Headshots can also be used for:
- LinkedIn profiles
- Company websites
- Speaker bios & press features
- Email signatures
- Marketing and PR material
A good headshot says: professional, approachable, confident.
A poor one… I’m sure we’ve all seen those.
I’ve been photographing people professionally since 2017, and if there’s one thing I’ve learned, it’s that you are more photogenic than you think. It’s all in the guidance before and through your photo session.
And that’s where I come in. During your session, I aim to:
- Guide you through simple, natural poses
- Help with posture, angles, and expression
- Keep things relaxed and easy (no pressure, no rushing)
- Give clear direction so you’re never left wondering what to do
You don’t need modelling experience, and you don’t need to ‘know your good side’ (although we all have one). You just need to turn up with an open mind, and I’ll take care of the rest.
Who are the Headshot Sessions for
- Business owners & entrepreneurs
- Corporate professionals
- Directors & leadership teams
- Speakers, consultants & coaches
- Staff teams needing consistent imagery
Whether you need a single updated headshot or consistent images across a bigger team, I’ll make sure everything feels professional, cohesive, and on-brand.
What to Expect
- A calm, professional environment
- Clear direction throughout
- Time to settle in (because nobody looks great in the first 30 seconds)
- A selection of images to choose from
- Professional retouching that still looks like you
Sessions can take place at one of my headshot studio days, at your workplace, or at a suitable location, depending on your needs.
Team & Corporate Headshots
If you’re updating headshots for your team or organisation, I offer on-location corporate sessions designed to be:
- Efficient
- Consistent
- Minimally disruptive to the working day
I work quickly, calmly, and professionally, ensuring everyone feels at ease, and the final images work together visually across your website and marketing materials.

TESTIMONIALS
Will you be my next happy client?
I could not recommend Iska enough. She photographed our furbaby Ralphie as a puppy and at a year old. It’s hard to convey in words just how beautiful the images that Iska took are! Iska is lovely and easy to get along with, we really gelled with her and have now even booked her for our wedding!
Iska is a fantastic photographer, she made the process great fun from start to finish. I have used her for both equine and dog sessions and the ideas she has are brilliant. Most recently she photographed my German Shepherd Eddie in Aberdeen and the photos are beautiful.
My daughter Tamzin and I had the pleasure of seeing Iska working her magic during our photo session with our horse Buster. We would certainly recommend Iska, she is a very professional and talented photographer, lots of patience too. We just adore the photos she took of our boy Buster.
We are delighted with the photos Iska took of our pony they are a treasured keep sake , she was both friendly and professional with great attention to detail and she made us feel at ease. Iska is clearly experienced with animals and knew how to get the best from them and their owners.
Iska had the ultimate challenge photographing my labradors (all five of them) on a snowy day in December. She captured some amazing images which I will now treasure for years to come. It’s clear to see how much time and dedication she puts into her work from the unique quality of her photographs. Extremely professional service who I would highly recommend.
We sell catering trailers. Iska’s brief was to visit a picturesque harbour location where our customer has a lobster shop and has done a magnificent job of branding the unit. Our purpose in engaging Iska was to get shots that showed off the functional aspects of the units and to highlight the imaginative branding as an inspiration to other customers. Iska took in the brief and produced some great images we are using on social media, our website, and other promotional materials. Thanks, Iska, for taking the care to produce on-brief, commercially usable images.
I am a picture editor with a national newspaper and found Iska online when looking for photographers in Aberdeen for a last-minute shoot. She’s been in our books ever since! She’s great to work with: reliable, professional, and her work is certainly at the high standard we expect in the industry.
I needed to organise last-minute headshots for our team in Aberdeen and, despite us being based in different locations, Iska made the whole process incredibly easy. We had already worked with a different photographer for some of our other photos and after sharing those with her, she matched the look and feel perfectly. Communication was quick and clear throughout, even during a particularly busy period, and the headshots turned out fantastic. I’d have no hesitation in recommending Iska.
