your self love story
Because LOVING YOURSELF IN PHOTOS is powerful
Every woman who walks into our photography studio is beautiful.
Sometimes she is here to celebrate it. Other times, she needs to see her own courage and beauty reflected back at her.
We’ve got you either way.
And why does it matter?
Because when women dare to love themselves more, there’s no stopping us from doing great things. And the world needs more of that right now.
Based in Eversley, near Reading & Hook UK

about capturing…
YOUR CONFIDENCE, YOUR HEART, YOUR BEAUTY
I’m here to photograph you on a day where you feel like the star of the show.
The spontaneous laughter, the soulful expression, the quiet moments of pure confidence as you start to let yourself shine.
We will build genuine moments of connection that put you at ease.
I’m here to capture you in a way that celebrates your courage, reconnects you to your femininity (whatever that looks like to you) and joy.
That feeling of self-love you can’t put into words.
I’m here to find who you truly are, and create an experience where you see yourself and your body through kind eyes and enjoy every moment, flying dresses and all.
when all you need is (self) love
Hi, I'm Sharan And I can't Wait to Capture your Light
What would it mean to see just how truly confident, courageous, beautiful and amazing you are, reflected back at you.
The women featured throughout our website are regular women who took the chance on themselves. They all came in from sizes 6-22, different ages and backgrounds.
You don’t need to wait for the internal or external voices to quieten, sometimes seeing yourself differently in that split second makes all the difference.
I promise that you are not too much of anything to do this – not too fat, not too skinny, not too pale, not too dark, not too old, not too anything.
You will be put at ease in a fun and chilled out environment where we will always go at your pace and comfort levels, whilst giving you all of the posing guidance that will capture your best angles and you as your most confident self.
Our gorgeous Portrait & Boudoir Studio is based in Eversley on the border of Reading & Hook, UK

Where will my session be?
We have a gorgeous studio based on a farm in Bramshill, just outside Reading & Hook UK.
Tips to note:
- Driving is advised as we’re a little out of the way. The location is a beautiful part of the experience, but public transport options are sparse!
- There is beautiful, private woodland on our doorstep. So on a nice day, we can venture out for some epic outdoor shots
- For Google Maps, use The Headshot Studio Ltd (our parent company), RG27 0RF
- Sometimes, we hire out other beautiful locations and release limited edition sets in gorgeous cabins and houses to add even more production value to your photos.

WHAT DO I WEAR?
We design every session around you to give you your dream photography experience. We usually have time for 4 or 5 different looks depending on your energy levels on the day.
Choose from or mix & match the options:
- Turn up as you are and leave the rest to us, with full access to our beautiful client wardrobe of gorgeous gowns and flying dresses in all sizes
- We love to celebrate you in your own style so bring in your favourite outfits that best reflect your personality
- Enjoy a beautiful boudoir photoshoot experience and bring your favourite lingerie, a white shirt or whatever you are most comfortable in
Let's talk make-up
You don’t need to wear make up to look beautiful and we’ll show you that. Our portrait sessions are about more than the makeover so we’re always happy to capture you as you are, or as you would usually get yourself ready in your own style.
If you do opt for the full pampering experience, our make-up artists are carefully chosen and masters of their art.
From winning awards to painting famous faces, our team are super talented and, just as importantly, all have a natural ease that helps you instantly relax into things.
Whether you want to go natural or super glam, they’ll create a look you love. By the end of your make up session, we’re all like old friends and that connection comes through in your photos.
There aren't many things you will keep forever
You might have been thinking about investing in a beautiful album or art for your walls from your Reading Makeover or Boudoir Photoshoot for a while…
But you’re worried you don’t have anything to wear
You don’t know how to pose or how to get your expression right
And you’re nervous about doing something that feels so vulnerable. Know that it’s our expertise and passion to create a safe and nurturing environment where you will be guided through everything, to create some meaningful art together and that you will enjoy through the process.
These prints are made in professional labs and using archival inks and paper so they are designed to last. Imagine looking back on your beautiful prints when you’re 95!

Who You Are in this moment in time
Our aim is always to create a powerful and beautiful experience that means something to you, along with the most gorgeous portraits of you. We know albums and frames are an investment in yourself and we also know the power of having your photos in beautiful power portraits that remind you who you are.
Our feminine approach runs right through to our sales process as well. You will never be under any pressure to spend more than you are comfortable with. Transparently, most women do invest in beautiful print collections because the portraits and experience mean so much to them, so we will always be flexible in making it work for you.

faq'S ABOUT YOUR PHOTOSHOOT EXPERIENCE
1. Where is the photography studio based?
Our beautiful studio is on a farm in Bramshill, just a 10-15 minute scenic drive from Reading & Hook, UK. Driving is recommended. Use “The Headshot Studio Ltd, Plough Lane, RG27 0RF” on Google Maps.
2. Who is the Portrait Experience for?
It’s for EVERY woman. We counter societal pressures by showcasing your true beauty, with or without makeup and welcome every woman, regardless of age or background.
3. How far in advance do I need to book my session?
Many clients book us weeks or months in advance, others live a little more spontaneously. If your desired date isn’t available, message us and we’ll always try to accommodate you.
4. How long does it take to see/receive my final photos?
Your Big Reveal session is within a few days of your shoot, sometimes the same day. Join us in-studio near Reading, Berkshire and Hampshire or via Zoom. Final edits are completed within 7 days of your Reveal, and prints within 30 days of your written approval of designs and mock-ups. Shipping delays may occur, but we strive to minimise waiting time.
5. How much editing is done to my photos?
We celebrate your natural beauty with light editing and enhancement of the photos. You can specify preferences for more retouching if desired. Most clients love the initial edits without extra Photoshop though and can’t believe it’s them in your own beauty.
6. Do you offer printing services with the photoshoot?
Yes! We provide gorgeous, vibrant prints on archival-quality paper. Our collections include print options, frames, and albums. We’ll guide you through the choices after your session.
7. What is your refund policy?
Prepaid collections can be adjusted at the Reveal. After the Reveal, products are non-refundable due to their custom nature and the digital nature of images delivered. You have final approval on retouching and album design. Notify us within 14 days if you have any issues with your prints.
8. What is your cancellation policy?
We aim to be flexible but require notice to adjust dates due to reserved studio and artist time. The session fee is non-refundable but rescheduling is possible. Please give as much notice as possible for any changes that need to be made and reschedules can be made at the discretion of the photographer.
9. How do prepayments work?
Receive a discount code for a 5% prepayment discount. At your Big Reveal, you can upgrade or downgrade your selections but the discount is locked in for that collection and under.
