Are You Looking For A Brand Photographer In London?


Looking for a brand photographer in London? I specialise in brand photography for passionate female business owners that turns your brand from questionable to inspirational. Whether your brand shoot includes a day in your business’s life, a professional-styled shoot including your products and headshots, or even personal portraits, I ensure every image is natural, vibrant, and full of personality.

Based in the Peckham / Dulwich borders of South London, I will work with you to create genuine, empowering photos of your brand.

I photograph London based female founders creating change in their industries and their clients lives. Be it shaking up women’s healthcare, carving new paths in industry, or making space for women on stage – my clients come from all stages in life, what unites them is that every single one is a change maker.

Giving you clarity on how your business translates to an image even when you feel lost on where to start.
Fitting your personality with authority and without compromise. That’s the journey I take every client on before I even pick up the camera.

On the day, all focus is on you feeling grounded, safe, and having fun. So when your gallery lands, it’s excitement you feel — not dread — at all the great options in front of you. Shots that inspire your clients’ confidence, as well as yours!

Whether it’s an image reboot or an upgraded headshot, let me help you bring your story to life through stunning branding photography today.

Goodbye generic business, hello true-to-you brand

Having a branding photoshoot means exploring your comfort in front of the camera, even if you don’t know how to strike a pose. The process we go through will bring you and your personality into the frame in all the right ways, so that you can do justice to the brand you’re so passionate about! With the right brand photographer, you can:

Let your clients see the real you and build connection

Show your work off with authority, so your clients want to commit

Boost your authenticity and your clients’ confidence in you

With oodles of content, never use a stock photo again!

What’s not to love?

Oh – you don’t like the camera? I didn’t either.

I’ll teach you how to pose comfortably and confidently and you never know, you might even have fun in the process!

Hello! I’m Frances

Creative Brand Photographer & Confidence Coach

I’M YOUR BRAND PHOTOGRAPHER HERE IN LONDON.

Grab a seat. This is where we get creative and grow!

Spirited is for those of us whose work is our passion and value purpose over profit. I work from my London home studio with women leading change, conscious businesses and creatives.

A lifelong feminist, once Director of a Latin American women’s organisation, I’ve mentored hundreds of women starting a new chapter in life. I believe strongly in the power of encouragement and change. It’s my mission to support you in leading that change.

Almost all of us, from the most capable professionals to the most stunning brides, are fearful of getting in front of a camera or putting ourselves out there. So if that’s you, you’re in the right place. I can show you how to step up physically and show up positively.

I didn’t know where to look when I first asked a friend to photograph me – at the lens, at him, or the sky? I’d have rather let my jelly-like legs run away. But before you know it you’ll be dancing for me at your session and posting yourself and your life’s work without a second thought. I want every one who crosses my lens to leave feeling free to step up and be seen.

When the camera’s away, you’re likely to find me cooking up a feast for friends, laughing til the tears flow and enjoying a good hug with my kids. I’m also partial to a home yoga session, a nice glass of red and a good feminist novel!

I had the most amazing brand photoshoot for my website with Frances! Even before the session, she went above and beyond. We had a couple of calls, email exchange, and she also sent me a really thoughtful questionnaire that helped me get clear on how I wanted my photos to look and feel. It honestly felt more like a coaching session than just prep. The shoot itself was such a lovely experience - super relaxed and fun. The final photos exceeded my expectations and genuinely feel like me. Frances has an incredible gift for listening, understanding, and capturing authenticity. I cannot recommend her enough! I already can’t wait for an excuse to book another shoot with her!

Frances helped me with some product shots for my homewares brand when another photographer let me down. She was incredibly helpful, brought great creative ideas to the shoot and delivered the photos really quickly. One of the products ended up becoming the bestseller of the collection - I’m sure her images played a big part in that. Highly recommend!

Frances is an absolute delight to work with. We have been working with her for a number of years, and she captures my family beautifully. Her photos are treasures and showcase each of my children’s personalities. She is patient and kind, and my kids adore her (which makes family photos enjoyable v stressful). I cant recommend her enough.
