Fifteen-minute Portraits: An Arty Christmas Gift

Graham BInns November 13, 2018

Okay, let’s get this out of the way: Yes, it’s November. Yes, it’s not actually Christmas yet. And if you get me started on the fact that the Manchester Christmas Markets are already being built then you’ll have to hand me a beer and let me rant for a few hours.

Doesn't mean I’m above marketing my services as a Christmas present, however. So, on to the meat of the message!

Fifteen-minute Portraits are back for a second year!

Last year I started a Fifteen-minute Portrait service, which was a roaring success. The basic premise (which I shamelessly nicked from Jeremy Cowart), is this:

Here's how it works: the sitter comes to my studio in Manchester, we have fifteen minutes to shoot and chat. We pick a few favourite frames together, then we're done. The selection of the final portrait is mine, and because I'm limiting the amount of retouching I'm doing, the sitter should have their image within 24 hours.

This year, I’m not just offering the option to book a session with me. I’m also offering gift vouchers. Want to buy your loved one something quirky and different? Buy them a Fifteen-minute Portrait voucher.

The vouchers are valid for up to a year, so let’s make something cool together!

[Finally] announcing my Actors' Headshots service

Graham BInns May 29, 2018

I've shot quite a few actors' headshots over the years, along with bunch of more corporate headshot work, but I've never officially offered actors' headshots as as service; those shoots have always been on an ad-hoc basis.

But headshots are right in my wheelhouse: simple portraits that have to connect with their audience whilst allowing the subject to express a range of expressions. And I love working with actors: they're such versatile subjects, and are used to taking direction.

So I've decided it's finally time to offer a headshots service specifically targeted to actors. You can read the full service page to learn more about what I'm offering, but it breaks down to three packages:

  • Express session — 45 minutes, 1 final image, £74.99
  • Two-hour session — 3 final images, £179.99
  • Three-hour session — 5 final images, £249.99

I can't wait to start working more with local actors and actresses, and making amazing headshot portraits with them.
