Enduring portrait photography.
This business portrait session was created as part of a broader visual branding initiative for Force Up. In accordance with internal confidentiality policies, personal identities are not revealed — the emphasis is placed entirely on the finished photographic result.
All portraits were produced in precisely managed lighting conditions with the use of a fully equipped mobile photo studio. This workflow ensured visual coherence, a refined professional appearance, and a contemporary style consistent with Force Up’s brand guidelines.
Planned usage: printed publications, corporate visual assets, official website, and internal organisational communication.
The key objective of the session was to develop a polished, credible and confident professional image that supports the company’s representation in formal business contexts.
Lighting and technique – refined three-point lighting approach
A refined three-point lighting configuration was used throughout the shoot, combining a soft key light, controlled fill light and a subtle edge light. This classic technique enhances facial definition, introduces visual depth and maintains a clean, executive-level aesthetic suited to corporate portraiture.
The pairing of a dark, neutral backdrop with precise light control resulted in a restrained and authoritative visual language — ideal for high-level corporate communication.
Corporate portraits – visual consistency and brand credibility
The completed portraits communicate essential brand values such as professionalism, reliability and a progressive business outlook. Each image was optimised for versatile use across marketing materials and internal corporate channels.
Similar corporate portrait sessions can be delivered in office environments, hotels or professional photography studios, with lighting, background and overall visual direction customised to match the brand’s positioning.

FAQ – Frequently asked questions
Preparation and course of the photo session
How do I book a photo session and prepare for it properly?
After
getting in touch, we agree on available dates and the type of
photo session —
business portrait,
branding session or
corporate photo shoot. We then prepare a detailed offer that includes the location, number of shots, retouching and the estimated completion time.
The client also receives guidelines regarding wardrobe and possible cooperation with a stylist or make-up artist so that the day of the session is comfortable and stress-free.
How long does a typical portrait session take and what affects the timing?
An average business session lasts from 60 to 120 minutes, depending on the number of outfits, shots and the type of photography (headshot, half-length portrait, etc.). Each photo session is individually tailored to the client’s expectations.
On-location office sessions or mobile setups may take slightly longer due to lighting preparation and arranging the space. Larger productions may require additional time for lighting tests and styling.
Can I consult the style and wardrobe before the photo session?
Yes — before the session we discuss the purpose of the images and the preferred aesthetic (business portrait, branding session, more formal corporate style or relaxed look) as well as wardrobe choices.
We create a shooting plan with recommendations on colours, fabrics and styling to maximise the final effect and shorten the time needed for the session.
Style, background and lighting
Why is a dark background often used in business portraits?
A dark background keeps the focus on the face and figure, reducing distracting elements. It is frequently used in PR materials, LinkedIn profiles and ‘About us’ sections, underlining the professional character of the photograph.
What kind of lighting do you use in business portraits?
Most often we use Rembrandt lighting, side light with a gentle fill, as well as classic three-point setups. Light power and modifiers are adjusted to the shape of the face and the mood of the image. For larger projects, more creative lighting variations are also possible.
Headshot Days and team sessions
How to organise a Headshot Day for the team?
We start with a list of participants and the estimated time per person (10–20 minutes per person). The photographer brings a mobile studio and carries out a team photo session according to the schedule agreed with HR.
Can team photos have different styles?
Yes — we can prepare different zones or lighting setups, for example more formal portraits for the board and more relaxed images for the creative team, while maintaining consistency through the same background and colour correction.
Retouching and file formats
What does the retouching of the photos include?
Standard retouching includes exposure and colour correction, subtle skin cleanup and maintaining a natural look. Additional options include beauty retouch, body shaping and colour grading for publications or marketing campaigns.
In what formats are the photos delivered and are they suitable for LinkedIn?
You receive high-resolution JPG files for print and optimised versions for online use — cropped for LinkedIn and social media. Square and other aspect ratios are also available.
Delivery, payment and invoices
Is express delivery of the photos available?
Yes — express editing allows you to receive the photos the next day (+50% of the session price) or within 2–3 days (+25% of the session price).
What payment methods do you accept and do you issue invoices?
You can pay by bank transfer or in cash. For companies, a VAT invoice is issued. For larger projects, a deposit and a signed contract are required.
