Portrait Photography for Women in Edinburgh and the Lothians.

Personal Portraits — For the woman who wants a professional portrait of herself. Not a phone photo. Not a snapshot. A properly lit, expertly directed portrait session in a private studio, with finished images she will actually keep.

Most women have no professional portrait of themselves. Not because they don't want one, but because they've never found a session that felt worth it, or a photographer they trusted to handle it well.

This is a fully directed studio portrait session. You arrive, I take care of the rest.

Wardrobe guidance is included in your pre-session consultation.
Posing is directed throughout — you will never be left to guess what to do with your hands or where to look.
The result is a set of finished portraits that look like you, at your best.

Who books this session:

Women marking a significant birthday or decade. Women who have changed — in appearance, in life stage, or in confidence — and want photographs that reflect who they are now.

Women who have never had a portrait taken properly and have decided it's time.

What is included:

Every session starts with a pre-session consultation by phone or video. We discuss your wardrobe, the look you want, and what to expect on the day.

On the day: studio time, full posing direction, and wardrobe styling support. After the session, a private viewing appointment where you select your images.

Finished portraits are professionally retouched and delivered digitally.

How Much Does
It Cost?

To secure your date, A £149 booking fee is required at the time of booking. This is non-refundable and is applied in full toward your chosen package at your viewing appointment.

What the investment covers:

A portrait session at Angelique is not a one-hour shoot and a download link. From the moment you book, you receive a preparation guide, a pre-session consultation, full wardrobe guidance, and expert direction throughout your session. After the shoot, you attend a private viewing appointment where you select your images in person before anything is retouched or delivered.

The full session experience — consultation, studio time, direction, and viewing appointment — carries a total production value of over £350 before a single image is selected. That value is built into every booking regardless of which package you choose.

What you pay for is the result:

Images that are professionally retouched, properly lit, and actually look like you.
Not a contact sheet. Not a gallery of 200 mediocre frames.
A focused set of finished portraits you will use.
