Big news - the Claire Howes Photography studio is officially opening on Saturday, 20th June! 🎉

To mark the occasion, I'm running a special Studio Opening Offer: a 30-minute portrait session with 3 professionally edited images for just £95. Spaces are limited, so if you or someone you know has been thinking about fresh headshots, dog portraits or a family session, now's a great time.

The new studio has been designed with clients in mind - a relaxed, comfortable space where you can feel at ease from the moment you arrive. Every session includes gentle posing guidance and expert direction so you look and feel your absolute best.

DM us to book your spot or find out more.

There is something truly magical about photographing women over 40. ✨

That's why I created the 40/40 Project. 40 portraits of 40 women, each one a testament to confidence, beauty, and life fully lived. The collection will become a photographic exhibition right here in Norwich.

We have just a few spaces remaining and I would love to hear from you.

Whether you've always wanted a portrait session but never quite found the right moment, or you want to mark a milestone and celebrate who you are right now, this project was made for you.

Here's how it works:
Your session is a relaxed, personalised experience with expert posing guidance and professional hair and makeup.
You receive a stunning fine art portrait included in the project.
Your story becomes part of something bigger.

If you're interested or know someone who should be part of this, please message me or visit the link in bio for more details.

AI headshots might be quick and cheap… but for businesses, they can come at a cost.

Your headshot is often the very first impression people have of your brand — and clients are becoming increasingly good at spotting when something feels off.

The problem with AI-generated headshots isn't just that they can look unrealistic. It's that they remove the very thing that helps businesses build trust: authenticity.

People want to connect with REAL people.
Real expressions.
Real personality.
Real connection.

Professional branding photography is about far more than "looking nice." It's about creating imagery that reflects who you are, what your business stands for, and how you want clients to feel when they work with you.

AI can generate a face.
It can't capture presence, warmth, confidence, or genuine connection.

In a world full of automation and artificial content, authenticity stands out more than ever.

Your business deserves imagery that feels human — because people buy from people. ✨

If you're ready to invest in imagery that truly represents you, I'd love to chat. Drop a comment below or send me a message — let's create something real together.

One day these photographs become priceless.

Right now, your dog is stealing your seat on the sofa, demanding walks at 6am, and somehow always knowing when you're sad. It feels like this is just life. Normal. Everyday. Forever.

But time passes quietly. Faster than we ever expect.

A pet portrait isn't just a photograph. It's the way you'll remember the exact tilt of their head, the softness of their fur, the look in their eyes that felt like they understood every single word.

They deserve more than a photo buried somewhere on your phone. They deserve artwork. Something framed. Something that stays.

📸 Drop your dog's name in the comments — I'd love to meet the good boys and girls!

Ever looked at an editorial portrait and thought "I could never look like that"?

I hear this a lot. And I gently disagree every time.

Magazine-worthy portraits aren't the result of being naturally photogenic. They're the result of the right light, the right direction, and a photographer who knows how to make you feel completely at ease in front of the camera.

What goes into creating imagery like this:

✨ A detailed pre-shoot consultation to understand you, your style, and your story
✨ Expert studio lighting tailored to flatter you specifically
✨ Styling and wardrobe guidance so you arrive prepared and confident
✨ Relaxed, natural posing direction throughout the session
✨ Fine art retouching that enhances rather than erases

The result is portraits that feel like artwork. Because they are.

Whether you're looking for imagery that tells your personal story or professional portraits that truly represent you, this is what I do.

If you've ever wanted portraits that feel like artwork, this is your sign to book your session.

Feel free to message me or comment below to find out more.

WHAT A DAY!

I spent the full day at with their 1st year students, and honestly, it was one of the most rewarding shoots I've done.

All shot onsite at The Workshop Studios - so I am portable! I can bring professional studio lighting and backdrops to you, or you can book in for a 1-2-1 session in my brand new studio space for a more personal experience.

Here's what we covered:

- Posing techniques - how to guide someone to look natural and confident
- Lighting patterns - why different light shapes create different moods and impacts
- Reading light in images - how to spot what a photographer is using and why
- Headshot types - which styles work for different roles in the industry

But here's the magic: these students didn't just get photographed. They *understood* the craft. They left knowing exactly what I was doing and why - and that knowledge shows in every single frame.

The BEST part? Some of their headshots are already out there being used professionally!

If you're looking for headshots that actually work for your industry - whether you're an actor, business professional, or creative - let's have a chat. I'll make sure you understand the process, feel confident in front of the camera, and walk away with images you're genuinely proud of.

I can also organise photography classes for dance schools and colleges.
